The number two is extremely important to Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty.
“It just means a lot to me and my family. A lot of my family who played sports wore No. 2,” Jeanty told USA TODAY Sports, during a promotional appearance with Sharpie. “Then I was born on December 2. The legacy, the greatness, and I was born that day. There's just a lot of meaning behind it. And for the brand, I wasn't willing to give it up.”
Jeanty wore No. 2 at Lone Star High School in Frisco, Texas, and at Boise State, where he became the school’s all-time leading rusher, achieved the second-highest single-season rushing total in FBS history and was a Heisman Trophy finalist.
