Who Should I Start? Rachaad White or Jaylen Wright

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White had the game-winning touchdown for the Buccaneers on Monday Night Football, and he was more involved in the game plan throughout Week 2 for Tampa. White played 31% of snaps in Week 2 after playing 24% of snaps in Week 1, and he finished the game with 10 carries for 65 yards and a touchdown while adding two catches for one yard and a critical fumble recovery. White's backfield mate, Bucky Irving was also impressive and effective, totaling 121 yards rushing and receiving and converting a big play to set up White's touchdown. The timeshare makes both running backs usable for standard-sized leagues, but limits the upside of each of them as well. White is still just a flex option since he'll remain touchdown-reliant as the Bucs take on the Jets in Week 3.

Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright (knee) logged a full practice Wednesday and is expected to see his first meaningful action of the season Thursday night against Buffalo. Wright entered the year as the projected RB2 behind De'Von Achane, but a preseason knee issue sidelined him for the first two weeks. In his absence, Ollie Gordon II filled the change-of-pace role, playing 18% of Miami's offensive snaps. Achane has been one of the few bright spots in a sluggish Dolphins offense, tallying a team-high 197 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns through two games. With Wright now back in the fold, Miami could look to mix him in early to ease the workload on Achane. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues should monitor Wright as a potential stash with upside if his role grows.
