Rachaad White Cleared to Play Sunday

Friday, October 9, 9:12 AM

Washington Commanders running back Rachaad White (shoulder) missed the team's Week 4 loss to the Colts and has been a limited practice participant to begin the week, but according to team senior writer Zach Selby, he has been cleared to play in a Week 5 divisional clash with the Giants. White has averaged 10.3 opportunities per game, but in his absence, veteran running back Austin Ekeler stepped in less than a week after signing with the team and handled six opportunities out of the gate. With Jacory Croskey-Merritt still leading the backfield, the division of labor between White and Ekeler bears monitoring, though neither makes for a viable start in a game that could see fewer receiving opportunities than the pass-heavy script Washington was forced into a week ago in London.

Ray Davis News

Ray Davis Active for Week 4 Against New England

Sunday, October 4, 7:48 AM

Buffalo Bills running back Ray Davis (hamstring) is officially active for Sunday's Week 4 contest against the New England Patriots. He had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity on Friday. For now, this news likely has more special teams implications than anything else, as Davis has totaled three kick returns and one offensive touch this season. He operated on a measly 8% snap share last week, putting him behind both James Cook III and Ty Johnson in the pecking order. As long as Cook and Johnson are healthy, there's no reason that he should be rostered in redraft leagues. He's also getting closer to being a cut candidate in dynasty formats.
