Should You Start or Sit Rachaad White on Wild Card Weekend?
It’s never a bad time for a blind resume. Here are three production lines over the past three weeks:
- Player A: 15.7% of team rushing yards and 13.9 PPR points as a pass catcher
- Player B: 13.3% of team rushing yards and 19.9 PPR points as a pass catcher
- Player C: 7.8% of team rushing yards and 13.4 PPR points as a pass catcher
All of those stat lines look roughly the same, and none of them are overly appealing. I think we can agree on that. Rachaad White is clearly one of them based on the construct of this article – would he be even remotely on your radar if not for a strong 2023 fantasy season?
The answer should be no.
This is the Bucky Irving show and things are going just fine under that plan – Tampa Bay is the third-highest-scoring offense since returning from their Week 11 bye.
- Player A: Hassan Haskins
- Player B: Javonte Williams
- Player C: White
