The eventual return of Raiders running back Darren McFadden from a hamstring injury doesn't necessarily mean he will be back at the featured spot. Replacement Rashad Jennings has bettered his production by far.
Jennings has rushed for 340 yards on 57 carries for a 6.0 average and two touchdowns in the last three games. McFadden's mark was 3.6. Jennings has averaged near that (3.2) after contact alone.
The starting job will likely not be an issue this week. It appears that McFadden will miss his third straight game when his team hosts Tennessee on Sunday.
