Ameer Abdullah, Zamir White Splitting First-Team Reps
1 year agoLas Vegas Raiders running backs Ameer Abdullah and Zamir White are reportedly sharing all the first-team reps at training camp while Josh Jacobs (holdout) remains absent. Jacobs is unhappy with the team's attempt to place the franchise tag on him, so Abdullah and White will see plenty of additional reps as long as he is out. Tashan Reed of the Athletic said White is taking most of the carries and Abdullah is the primary pass-catching back, but ideally, White will be able to separate himself soon and handle a bigger chunk of the touches. It's too early to know if Jacobs will miss any time, but White could be a huge bargain in preseason drafts if he's forced into a starting role and Abdullah could have at least some value in PPR formats.
