Last week, Rachaad White had to deal with Jeremy McNichols and Austin Ekeler cutting into his workload. With McNichols placed on IR, White will likely only have to deal with Ekeler this week, but Robert Henry Jr. could get into the mix, and I wouldn't be shocked. Last week, White played 47.4% of the snaps with 42.3% of the rushing work and a 39.4% route share (10.3% target share). White finished with 12 touches and 60 total yards (one score) as the RB15 for the week. White has posted a solid 17% missed tackle rate this season but a disappointing 1.87 yards after contact per attempt. White will need to make the most of his volume and likely get into the endzone to pay off for fantasy this week. The matchup is rough. The Rams' run defense has improved. Over the last five games, they have allowed the 13th-lowest rushing success rate, the 11th-lowest rushing yards over expectation per attempt, the fourth-lowest yards after contact per attempt, and the sixth-lowest missed tackle rate.
