Tom Brady, former NFL player and current minor owner of the Las Vegas Raiders, seemed delighted about his team drafting Ashton Jeanty with their no. 6 pick in the 2025 NFL draft.

Jeanty rushed for 2,601 yards and 29 touchdowns for a Boise State team that made the College Football Playoff. Jeanty averaged 7 yards per carry. He finished second in the Heisman Trophy voting to Travis Hunter, who had a historic season playing offense and defense for Colorado.
