Who Should I Start? Rachaad White or Rome Odunze

Friday, November 21, 5:30 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White will see an increased workload for at least one more game with Bucky Irving (shoulder, toe) ruled out for Week 12. However, fellow back Sean Tucker has outperformed White over the last few weeks. Last week, Tucker rushed for over 100 yards and scored three touchdowns in the loss to the Buffalo Bills. White has shown little success on the ground this season, which could mean more carries for Tucker in Week 12. The three-touchdown performance should almost certainly give Tucker an expanded role this weekend. That means, White could be looking at a reduced role as a rusher, so he shouldn't be trusted as anything more than a flex option.

Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze has struggled to find consistency in recent weeks, putting up just two catches for 41 yards in Week 11's win over the Minnesota Vikings. The second-year receiver has been held to under three catches in four of his last six games, as the team has relied more on the run game. Odunze has also seen his snap count decrease in recent weeks, dropping from a snap share of 95% or more to under 80% in the previous two weeks. Odunze will look to bounce back in Week 12, against a Steelers defense that has allowed the most fantasy points per game to wide receivers this season. The Steelers play a lot of man coverage as well (fourth-highest rate in the NFL), and Odunze has prospered against man coverage this season. In the three games Odunze has faced teams that play man coverage at a similar rate to the Steelers, he's scored over 20 PPR points in all three games. Odunze is set to bounce back in a big way in Week 12.
