Who Should I Start? Ronald Jones or Rachaad White

Monday, September 18, 7:43 PM

The Dallas Cowboys released running back Ronald Jones on Monday, the team announced. Jones was eligible to return to the active 53-man roster on Monday after serving a two-game suspension for violating the league's performance-enhancing drug policy, but the Cowboys have opted to go in another direction. The 26-year-old will now be hoping to latch on with another organization to provide some backfield depth. Tony Pollard is the team's clear-cut starter, with Rico Dowdle and rookies Deuce Vaughn and Hunter Luepke backing him up in the running back room. Jones shouldn't be rostered in single-year fantasy leagues right now.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White has fallen back into the No. 2 role in Tampa's backfield. White took over as the lead back earlier this year when Bucky Irving missed seven games due to foot and shoulder injuries. Irving is back up to full speed, though, so White has been delegated to change-of-pace duties. Last week, White rushed the ball 11 times for 53 yards in the loss to the New Orleans Saints. It was actually a bit surprising to see White average 4.82 yards per carry. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect those results weekly, especially with fewer touches. White belongs on the bench in most fantasy formats for the upcoming Thursday night matchup versus the Atlanta Falcons.
