Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White was once again sluggish on the ground, but was able to salvage his fantasy value with his ability as a receiver. On Sunday, White rushed the ball 10 times for 31 yards on the ground. It was another lackluster game for White on the ground against a tough San Francisco 49ers defense. Luckily, White was able to save his value by hauling in six of his seven targets for 39 yards and a touchdown in the loss. The Bucs now head into a bye week, but White could lose some steam after that. Wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) is expected to return in Week 12 which could take away some of the targets for White going forward. That might make White fall into the flex conversation for the Week 12 matchup against the New York Giants.

Dynasty | Tampa Bay running back Bucky Irving had 73 rushing yards and a touchdown in a loss against San Francisco. Dynasty Analysis: Irving continues to post solid numbers whenever he sees an opportunity. The only problem here is the fact his 16 touches on the day matched those of Rachaad White. It may take an injury for Irving to truly emerge, but he's clearly one of the most promising rookies in this year's class. His dynasty arrow continues to point up.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White was able to salvage his fantasy value with a trip to the end zone last week. White only saw three rushing attempts for 19 yards and a score during last week's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. He also hauled in three receptions for an extra 16 yards through the air. It was an extremely quiet night for White outside of the touchdown. The Bucs have gone to a committee approach at running back, which has meant less rushing attempts for White. Lately, White has been able to save his value in the receiving game, but fantasy managers can't always count on that. Fantasy managers should consider White a flex option for the upcoming Week 10 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White carried the ball just three times for 19 yards in Monday night's 30-24 overtime loss to the Chiefs but was able to score his first rushing TD of the 2024 campaign. The 25-year-old has three receiving TDs already this season, and even though he did not score through the air on Monday, he was involved in the passing game again, snagging all three of his targets for 16 yards. Thankfully for fantasy, White is used as a pass catcher and around the goal line, as it was the second consecutive week that he's ceded more carries to fellow back Bucky Irving. With Sean Tucker in the mix as well, there just aren't as many carries to go around. It'll be a grind in next week's matchup at home versus the 49ers, so look for him to land in the low-end RB2/3 range with at least a solid floor in PPR leagues.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White hasn't found much success on the ground this season. He has fallen into a running back committee which has decreased his rushing attempts. However, fellow back Bucky Irving (toe) is listed as questionable ahead of the Week 9 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. If Irving sits, White would likely see more chances on the ground but he hasn't done much with his chances this season. Luckily, White has been able to salvage his fantasy value in the receiving game. The Bucs are going to White more often with Mike Evans (hamstring) and Chris Godwin (ankle) sidelined. He has seen six targets in each of the last two games. That figures to continue happening with the Bucs limited on passing options. White should be a strong PPR option and a possible RB2 for this Monday Night matchup.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White continues to have little success on the ground. However, White has been able to salvage his fantasy value with his receiving ability. That was the case once again during Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons. White rushed six times for 29 yards, but hauled in five of his six targets for 38 yards and a touchdown in the loss. The Bucs are without their top two wideouts, so as expected they went with the short passing game. White figures to be stuck in this running back committee for the foreseeable future. Although, White still should be a fine PPR option for fantasy managers during next week's matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White continued his struggles on the ground, but was able to put together a strong fantasy performance last week. White rushed 10 times for 40 yards, but hauled in six receptions for 71 yards and two touchdowns in the loss to the Baltimore Ravens. The Bucs are using a three-man committee which makes it difficult for any of these backs to have reliable fantasy value. However, White should be the best choice out of the trio due to his ability in the receiving game. The Bucs are going to be without wide receivers Mike Evans (hamstring) and Chris Godwin (ankle) for the foreseeable future. That means, White will probably see more chances in the receiving game going forward. Fantasy managers in PPR formats might be able to trust White as a RB1 for the upcoming matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. White rushed for a season-high 72 yards against Atlanta during their last meeting.

Buccaneers' RB Rachaad White scored 29.10 fantasy points in Monday's Week 7 loss against the Ravens. White ran for 40 yards and caught six passes for 71 yards with two touchdowns. It's the 1st time this season White scored at least 25 fantasy points in a game.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White rushed for 40 yards on 10 carries during Monday's Week 7 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. He was much more impactful in the passing game, catching all six of his targets for an additional 71 receiving yards and two touchdowns. After losing some touches to Bucky Irving and then sitting out Week 6 due to injury, White bounced back in a huge way against the Ravens. He should remain heavily involved heading into next week's clash with the Atlanta Falcons, especially with Chris Godwin (ankle) likely sidelined for the rest of the season. White is a strong fantasy RB2 given his rushing, receiving, and touchdown productivity.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White (foot) is officially active and will play on Monday night against the Baltimore Ravens. White will return to the field after missing the Week 6 win over the division-rival New Orleans Saints. While White was sidelined last week, rookie Bucky Irving and Sean Tucker took over the backfield and each going over 100 rushing yards, which could easily leave White as the odd-man out in what is becoming a three-headed committee backfield in Tampa. Head coach Todd Bowles said White, Irving and Tucker will all play when they are healthy, but the team could go with the hot-hand approach, making it very frustrating for fantasy managers to decide who to play on a weekly basis. White averaged only 3.7 yards per carry on his 51 rushing attempts through five games and now figures to have a much smaller role moving forward as long as Irving and Tucker stay healthy.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White (foot) is listed as questionable for Monday's game according to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network. White opened the week as a limited participant during Thursday's and Friday's practice. However, the 25-year-old was able to upgrade to full participation on Saturday, which is a positive sign for his availability on Monday evening. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor White's status throughout the weekend. If White can suit up, fantasy managers should expect Tampa Bay to split opportunities between their running backs, which makes Bucky Irving and White low-end RB2s, with Sean Tucker projecting to be a flex option facing a tough Baltimore rush defense.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White (foot) was a limited practice participant for the second day in a row ahead of the team's Monday night matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. The third-year back sustained a foot injury in Tampa Bay's Week 5 loss to their division-rival Atlanta Falcons when a defender used an outlawed means to bring him to the turf (hip-drop-tackle). The limited sessions are an upgrade from the DNP designation he garnered last week, but his status for Monday Night Football is uncertain. If White can't play, backfield mates Bucky Irving and Sean Tucker will again split the Bucs' RB touches. Still, upon his return, the former Sun Devil will be a part of a three-man RBBC that evolved into a "hot-hand" situation while he was out for Week 6.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White (foot) was listed as limited on Thursday in the team's first practice of the week. White was inactive for the team's Week 6 win over the division-rival New Orleans Saints, which allowed rookie Bucky Irving and Sean Tucker to share the backfield in the blowout victory. Both Irving and Tucker went over 100 scrimmage yards in the impressive performance, which has led to the Buccaneers going to a three-man backfield committee once White is able to return to full health. It's bad news for the 25-year-old White, who has easily been the least efficient of the Bucs' three backs through six weeks of the season. Tampa plans to go with the hot-hand approach, so all is not lost for White, but for now, he's on the outside looking in after missing last week's game due to injury. And with Tampa not playing until Monday against the Ravens, White isn't a recommended fantasy play.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running backs Rachaad White (foot), Bucky Irving, and Sean Tucker could be set to work in a pure three-man committee, which will make fantasy football start-or-sit decisions tough for the three talented backs. Head coach Todd Bowles said the team will go with the "hot hand" approach on Monday night against the Baltimore Ravens. Needless to say, this is a tricky situation to navigate, but it sounds like White is trending toward playing in Week 7 after missing Week 6 with a foot injury. While all three backs have had their moments this year, the Ravens have allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game to RBs, meaning each ball carrier should be downgraded in the rankings this week. Their usage should be closely monitored on Monday Night Football.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White (foot) saw workhorse usage last season and was a high-end fantasy RB1 in PPR leagues, but his injury and the emergence of rookie Bucky Irving and second-year undrafted free-agent Sean Tucker have brought uncertainty to his role. Irving is averaging 5.7 yards per carry to White's 3.7, and Tucker posted nearly 200 total yards and two touchdowns in Week 6 against the New Orleans Saints. Buccaneers reporter Greg Auman said he believes White will likely still be the first RB on the depth chart when he recovers from his foot injury, but Irving and Tucker have raised the bar in the backfield, and Tampa Bay could start to rotate all three backs. If the team uses a three-man committee, it will limit the floors and upsides of all three backs and cause headaches for fantasy managers. The usage of the Tampa Bay backs should be closely monitored moving forward.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White (foot) is officially inactive on Sunday against the division-rival New Orleans Saints in Week 6. White missed the final two practices of the week on Thursday and Friday and was deemed doubtful to play this weekend, so fantasy managers should have already moved him to their benches. In addition to being hurt and inactive this week, White had already been losing most of his fantasy steam while being out-produced by rookie backfield mate Bucky Irving early on in 2024. If White is able to return for next Monday night's clash against the Baltimore Ravens, there's a good chance he'll play in more of a backup role to Irving. With White on the sidelines on Sunday, Irving is basically a must-start RB2 for fantasy managers with upside for more. Through five games, White is averaging a mediocre 3.7 yards per carry and has no rushing TDs on 51 rushing attempts.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White (foot) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. White opened the week as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice but was downgraded to a non-participant on Thursday and Friday which does not bode well for his status this weekend. If White is unable to suit up, fourth-round rookie Bucky Irving would get the starting nod. Irving has seen his opportunities increase over the past few weeks due to his strong efficiency as runner. If White is unable to play, fantasy managers should feel confident locking Irving into their lineup as a high-upside RB2.

From RotoBaller

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said that running back Rachaad White (foot) will be a game-time decision for the Week 6 clash against the division-rival New Orleans Saints on Sunday. If White is unable to gain clearance on Sunday, rookie Bucky Irving will have clear RB2 upside on the road in New Orleans as Tampa's primary back. The good news for fantasy managers hoping to use White this week is that they'll know early on Sunday whether he's good to go. The 25-year-old former third-rounder in 2022 out of Arizona State has averaged a mediocre 3.7 yards per carry through five games in 2024 and has been outperformed by the more explosive Irving so far. Even if White is active this weekend, it wouldn't be a surprise to see him take a back seat to Irving, making him more of a low-upside RB3/flex against a Saints defense that has been above-average this season.

From RotoBaller

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White (foot) was absent during Thursday's practice session. This is a downgrade for White who was limited to open the week. This is obviously not a good sign heading into Sunday's Week 6 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. However, Friday's practice will go a long way to deciding whether or not White will play this weekend. If he sits, Bucky Irving will be asked to carry the workload in the backfield. He'd move into RB2 territory if White is unable to play this weekend.

From RotoBaller

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White (foot) was listed as limited in the team's first practice of the week. The third-year back was efficient in the Buccaneers' 36-30 loss to the Falcons last Thursday night, averaging 7.2 yards per carry over his ten rush attempts. However, he appeared to be bent awkwardly while being taken to the ground by an Atlanta defender. White returned to the contest after leaving the field but did not look to be 100%. It's an encouraging sign that he could practice in at least a limited fashion, but fantasy managers will want to monitor his status over the coming days. Rookie running back Bucky Irving will handle most of the running back touches if White can't play. The 25-year-old has improved his efficiency on the ground over the last two weeks and still leads this backfield in snaps. However, the former fourth-round pick has closed the snap-share gap since Week 3. Atlanta gets a formidable opponent in Week 6 when they take on the New Orleans Saints on the road.
