BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 31% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Rachaad White has maintained a continuous presence among these weekly recommendations, due to his prospects of reaching RB1 status if he ascends into lead-back duties for Tampa Bay.
He possesses the ability to perform proficiently as both a rusher and receiver and his three-down capabilities would allow him to flourish if he catapults Leonard Fournette on the Buccaneers’ depth chart. He would also become a valuable resource for managers if Fournette would become sidelined for any reason.
White has carried 27 times (5.4 per game) since Week 5 and generated 96 rushing yards (19.2 per game) during that span. That includes the season-high eight attempts that he was allotted when the Buccaneers hosted the Rams in Week 9. White also eclipsed a 35% snap share for the fourth time in his last six games.
Fournette has now carried 61 times during that sequence (12.2 per game) while accruing 181 yards (36.2 per game) on the ground. He has averaged just 3.0 yards per carry although he has also collected 26 of his 30 targets during those contests.
White could be destined to remain in the current timeshare for the foreseeable future. However, his prospects of becoming a difference-maker for managers if that scenario changes have elevated him among this week’s waiver priorities.
