Rachaad White was one of fantasy football's biggest breakouts in 2023. He emerged from the running back dead zone to deliver an RB4 season (overall) in PPR leagues. White's dominant fantasy performance came on the back of massive volume, racking up over 300 touches including 64 receptions -- 4th among all running backs.
White dominated the Tampa Bay backfield in every capacity. He handed 67 percent of rushing attempts, ran 383 routes (2nd among RBs), and received nearly every goal-line carry. At a volume-driven position, this is all you can from your fantasy RB.
Heading into 2024, White is a highly debated player. Sure, he delivered a high-end fantasy season but he didn't look the best doing it. He struggled in nearly every running back efficiency metric. This included missed tackles forced per attempt, breakaway run rate, rush yards over expected, and more.
The path to success for White is once again dominating touches. Some drafters are hesitant about this outcome and shy away from the inefficiency which is why you'll find him in the high-end RB2 range in most drafts.

 Bucky Irving in some doubt for Week 15
Back injury limited him to five touches in Week 14
By: Doug Orth | Mon Dec 9, 3:40 pm
|  | Todd Bowles says rookie RB Bucky Irving’s back has tightened up. His availability against the Chargers will depend on if they can get the back to loosen up. (Buccaneers.com - Scott Smith)
FFToday's Take: Back injuries are unpredictable, so fantasy managers have little choice but to wait on this week's practice reports before figuring out if they need to make other plans. Even though Rachaad White has picked up his play in recent weeks, the Bucs have leaned more heavily on Irving during their playoff push. Perhaps this injury will force the coaching staff to split their touches evenly from now on, but it would be surprising if Irving did not get the money touches more often. Tampa Bay will not catch much of a break in Week 15, however, as they face a Chargers defense that has yielded only four TDs to the running back position this season. Sean Tucker will be worth a waiver claim if the early news on Irving's Week 15 availability is not good.
| Bucs going with the hot hand approach at RB?
Rachaad White expected to play
By: Mike Krueger | Thu Oct 17, 2:15 pm
| | Bucs coach Todd Bowles says they will go with the “hot hand” at RB but expects all three to play Monday: Rachaad White, Bucky Irving and Sean Tucker. (Rick Stroud on X)
FFToday's Take: Tampa Bay plays Monday night and it appears White will be back on the field. If you believe Bowles, we're likely to see all three running backs against the Ravens and difficult to project who will see the most work. White is likely to get the start but has been extremely inefficient throughout his career but has excelled in the passing game. The Bucs are currently 4-point underdogs to Baltimore.
| Rachaad White a gametime decision for Week 6
Limited in practice with foot issue
By: Mike Krueger | Fri Oct 11, 2:44 pm
| | Sounds like Jalen McMillan will be able to play Sunday after missing last week with a hamstring injury. Bowles said Rachaad White will be a game-time decision. (Greg Auman on X)
FFToday's Take: White was limited in practice this week with a foot issue then downgraded on Thursday to DNP. If he misses, we should see an increased role for Bucky Irving who would have strong RB2 value against the Saints. Sean Tucker is third on the depth chart.
| Bucky Irving misses practice, says he'll play Sunday
Hamstring injury
By: Mike Krueger | Thu Sep 26, 12:20 pm
| | Bucky Irving, limited Wednesday with a hamstring injury, did not practice today. Irving declines to say how or when he hurt his hamstring but reiterates: I’ll be ready for the game on Sunday.” (Greg Auman on X)
FFToday's Take: Missing a Thursday practice is never a good sign and players are always optimistic about their availability. We'll get a better idea of Bucky's true status after practice on Friday. Rachaad White has been highly inefficient this season but should still get a decent workload against the Eagles on Sunday.
| Bucky Irving making push for more playing time
HC: Rookie RB has "earned more snaps moving forward"
By: Doug Orth | Mon Sep 23, 5:30 pm
| | Todd Bowles says rookie RB Bucky Irving has earned more snaps going forward. (Buccaneers.com - Scott Smith)
FFToday's Take: Irving (6.2 yards per carry) has been a far superior runner to Rachaad White (2.1) through three weeks. White is so gifted as a receiving option out of the backfield that he will likely continue seeing a heavy dose of work on passing downs, but no one should be surprised if HC Todd Bowles opts for a hot-hand approach on running downs. White has quickly become more of a dicey RB2 option, while Irving has emerged as a serviceable flex with upside.
