Who Should I Start? Miles Sanders or Rachaad White

Carolina Panthers running back Miles Sanders (groin) didn't practice on Friday and is now questionable to play in Week 4 against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. Sanders was downgraded at Friday's practice after he was limited on both Wednesday and Thursday. The 26-year-old could be a true game-time decision, so fantasy managers will want to check the Sunday morning inactives to see if he's playing in Week 4. If Sanders is out or limited at all, Chuba Hubbard would step in as Carolina's primary backfield option. And with rookie quarterback Bryce Young (ankle) returning from a one-game absence, the Panthers could very well lean on their ground game as much as possible if game script allows it. For what it's worth, the Panthers are optimistic that Sanders will play.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White has seen a heavy workload early in the season. In fact, he has 14 or more carries in each of the first three games this season. Sadly, White is only averaging 3.1 yards per carry on the ground right now. The Bucs are likely to continue pounding the ball on the ground with White. However, he's unlikely to have a ton of success versus the New Orleans Saints defense in Week 4. White should remain heavily involved in the offensive gameplan, but his lack of success puts him as a low-end RB2 for this week.
