Who Should I Start? Rachaad White or Cam Skattebo

Friday, November 7, 4:51 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White is in line to make another start versus the New England Patriots in Week 10. White came out strong once Bucky Irving (shoulder, foot) went down in Week 4. However, White has been held in check over the last few weeks. In each of the last two games, White has been held to 38 rushing yards or fewer in both contests. The 26-year-old hasn't done much in the receiving game either, so he has been a dud in fantasy leagues over the last few weeks. It's unlikely going to get much better for White this weekend against the Pats who have done a tremendous job at stopping the run this season. Despite that, the Bucs are limited in terms of offensive weapons and will need to get White involved. The 26-year-old should be able to offer RB2 value in PPR formats this weekend.

The injury to New York Giants rookie running back Cam Skattebo (ankle) has a four- to six-month recovery timeline, which would set up Skattebo to be ready for offseason OTAs and minicamp, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Skattebo had one of the more gruesome injuries that you will see, and ultimately suffered a dislocated ankle, fractured fibula, and a deltoid ligament rupture. The 23-year-old had a successful surgery to close the wound and put him on track to make a full recovery. The fourth-rounder out of Arizona State was having a great rookie campaign, totaling 410 rushing yards and five touchdowns on 101 carries to go with 24 receptions for 207 yards and two scores on 32 targets through eight games. Second-year back Tyrone Tracy Jr. will be expected to take over as the lead back in New York, with veteran Devin Singletary mixing in.
