Top NFL rookie baffles fans with horrific debut after first-round selection by Tom Brady – ‘bust of the century’

TOM Brady’s first NFL Draft pick is not off to a great start.

Top-10 draft pick Ashton Jeanty had an awful NFL debut in the preseason on Thursday night.

The No. 6 overall pick made his debut against the Seattle Seahawks.

He was picked out of Boise State and was the No. 1 running back in his draft class.

At just 21 years old, many picked him to be a prime candidate to be a top player for years to come.

However, his first performance in the preseason did not reflect that idea.

Jeanty didn’t manage to record any positive yardage in his first NFL game.

Fans were quick to react to the poor performance, sharing their thoughts on social media.

“I have more rushing yards than Ashton Jeanty in the NFL preseason,” one fan said.

“Ashton Jeanty officially on bust watch,” another fan said.

“Time to pump brakes on Ashton Jeanty?” a third fan said.

“Ngl Ashton Jeanty is scaring me. He does not look good at all,” a fourth fan said.

“Bust of the century,” a fifth fan said.

While it was a poor stat line for Jeanty, it is important to note that he didn’t get much action.

Jeanty only had three carries during the game, meaning he didn’t get many opportunities to make up for one negative chunk play.

He signed after the draft on a four-year deal worth $35.9 million.

Jeanty also got a signing bonus worth $22.75 million.

Despite a rough first game as a Raider, coaches are still impressed with Jeanty.

He performed well in training camp, and likely will do better with more reps in a future preseason game.

Jeanty is currently tied with Cam Ward as the favorite to win Offensive Rookie of the Year.
