Rachaad White

Rachaad White was Leonard Fournette 2.0 for Tampa Bay last season. An inefficient rusher whose pass game role and every down snap share vaults them to RB1 land. Last year, White was the RB10 in fantasy, ranking fourth in snap share, seventh in opportunity share, and fourth in weighted opportunities. He also ranked top-ten in carries (second), targets (ninth), and red zone touches (ninth). White didn't do nearly as much with that volume as we'd hoped. Among 49 qualifying backs, White ranked 42nd in missed tackles forced per attempt, 40th in explosive run rate, and 45th in yards after contact per attempt (per Fantasy Points Data). While he was eighth in overall target volume among running backs, he was only 43rd in targets per route run and 18th in yards per route run. White could easily roll back into 2024 as the Bucs do it all back, but don't be surprised if the team drafts a running back to help him shoulder the load.

Rachaad White rushed for 75 yards on 19 carries in Tampa Bay’s 9-0 win over Carolina. He caught 4-of-4 targets for 18 yards.

Fantasy Impact

White continues to operate as the lead rusher for the Tampa Bay offense. The 24-year-old may have shown enough to secure the starting job next season as well. White and the Buccaneers will host a playoff game next week after winning the NFC South.
