Who Should I Start? Rachaad White or Trey Benson

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.

Arizona Cardinals' second-year running back out of Florida State, Trey Benson (knee), missed yet another opportunity to practice on Thursday after it was reported on Wednesday by Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic that head coach Jonathan Gannon did not make it sound likely that running back Benson would return from Injured Reserve to play in Week 10 against the division-rival Seattle Seahawks. This is tough news for fantasy managers who were hoping to get him activated after the four-game minimum from the IR stint. Benson remains a top IR stash for the time being, as they likely will give him the RB1 duties upon his return. Arizona will continue to mix and match in their backfield with Bam Knight, Emari Demercado, and Michael Carter. Right now, Demercado and Knight have some RB3 value while Carter is likely the odd man out based on recent usage.
