Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty set to play against Patriots

Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak will face his first regular‑season test of team resilience as Las Vegas travels to Gillette Stadium to meet the New England Patriots on Sunday. The Raiders enter the contest with a 3‑1 record after a 30‑27 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs that ended Kubiak’s unbeaten start with the franchise. Kickoff is scheduled for 10 a.m. Pacific time, with the game televised on CBS (KLAS‑TV, Channel 8), streamed on Paramount+, and broadcast on Raider Nation Radio at 920 AM. Las Vegas has won its last three meetings against New England and could extend that to a four‑game series winning streak for the first time in 57 years. According to DVOA, the Raiders’ offense ranks 14th while the Patriots’ sits at 26th. Against Kansas City’s stout defense, Las Vegas averaged 5.6 yards per play; New England managed 5.5 yards per play in its victory over Buffalo the previous week. Kubiak’s play‑calling and quarterback Kirk Cousins’ execution have been credited for the Raiders’ offensive uptick. Conversely, Patriots third‑year quarterback Drake Maye and offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels—a former Raiders assistant—have appeared disconnected through the first four weeks, although their potential was on display last season. The betting total has climbed to 45.5 points after opening at 43.5, a shift that reflects Las Vegas’ recent second‑half shootouts. Kubiak’s final game before taking the Las Vegas head‑coaching role was the Super Bowl, during which his Seattle Seahawks offense dismantled New England 29‑13.
