Who Should I Start? Donta Foreman or Rachaad White

Cleveland Browns running back D'Onta Foreman is a healthy scratch on Thursday night for the third straight week against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers. Now that Jerome Ford is back to full health, Foreman has fallen to fourth on the RB depth chart in Cleveland behind Nick Chubb, Ford and Pierre Strong Jr. As long as none of the trio are injured against Pittsburgh, Foreman figures to be a healthy scratch again in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos. The 28-year-old opened the 2024 campaign with a bigger role alongside Ford while Chubb recovered from a gruesome knee injury the year prior. In eight games in his first year with the Browns, Foreman hasn't been very effective, averaging a weak 3.4 yards per carry for 155 rushing yards and no touchdowns on 46 rushing attempts. He's added five catches for 46 yards.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White remains in a timeshare in the backfield, but that hasn't stopped him from producing over the last few weeks. White struggled on the ground through most of the season, but has rushed for 64 yards or more in each of the last three games. It's also worth noting that White has hauled in two touchdowns through the air over that span. White has proven to be a viable red zone option for the Bucs and that should continue in Week 16. He'll get a plus-matchup against the Dallas Cowboys defense. Fellow back Bucky Irving (back, hip) has been cleared to play, but that shouldn't stop White from offering at least flex value this weekend.
