Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White rushed for 10 yards on three carries during Sunday's Week 16 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. More importantly, he caught seven of his eight targets for an additional 50 yards through the air. This showing helped fantasy managers in PPR leagues, but his production was arguably all for naught as he coughed up a game-losing fumble in the final minutes of Sunday Night Football. Given that White registered just three carries to Bucky Irving's 16, he'll likely need to maintain a very large role in the passing game in order to have fantasy value going forward. With that said, pass-catching productivity hasn't been an issue so far for White, who has scored more than eight fantasy points (PPR) in all but one of his games this year. The 25-year-old is an appealing RB2 or RB3 option heading into Week 17 against the Carolina Panthers. When he last faced Carolina, White had a whopping 6.9 yards per carry but caught just one pass.

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is coming off a high-scoring fantasy performance and will look to remain a fringe QB1 option heading into Thursday Night Football against the Seattle Seahawks. Williams benefitted from some garbage-time production on Sunday against the Detroit Lions, finishing Week 16 with 334 passing yards, two touchdowns, and one turnover, as well as 34 rushing yards. The No. 1 overall pick has boasted impressive decision-making without a single interception since Week 6, but his ball security has started to come into question as he has a lost fumble in each of his last three games. Nevertheless, Williams ranks just outside the top 12 fantasy quarterbacks this season, and he could be due for another strong showing in this week's potential shootout against a mid-tier Seahawks defense. Seattle has allowed the 11th-most passing touchdowns and 14th-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks, but the sixth-fewest rushing yards.
Still trying to decide between White and Williams? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Rachaad White is projected to score 9.7 points this week while Caleb Williams is projected to score 17.8 points.
