Who Should I Start? Tyler Boyd or Rachaad White

Wednesday, August 14, 6:12 PM

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Tyler Boyd (bruised foot) is currently dealing with a bruised foot but is expected to miss only a few days, according to head coach Brian Callahan. Boyd, who joined the Titans this offseason, is projected to be the No. 3 receiver behind Calvin Ridley and DeAndre Hopkins. If he can return healthy, he remains a solid late-round pick in fantasy leagues. Boyd's connection with Callahan, his former offensive coordinator with the Bengals, is a positive factor for his performance. However, the injury situation in the Titans' receiving corps is concerning, with Hopkins (knee) expected to be out for four to six weeks. This situation dampens Will Levis's sleeper potential, who now has two top receivers sidelined. On a positive note, Ridley will likely see an increase in targets, making him a value pick at his current ADP.

For the second straight day, Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White (groin) had his practice repetitions limited on Thursday after he picked up a groin injury in the Week 2 win over the Detroit Lions. White finished last Sunday's contest with only 10 carries for 18 yards while catching his only target for a five-yard gain. Fantasy managers haven't liked what they've seen from him through two weeks, as White is averaging a paltry 2.0 yards per carry with 49 total rushing yards on 25 carries. He's added seven receptions for 80 yards, though. The good news is that the 25-year-old should be fine to play in Week 3 at home against the Denver Broncos, a defense that has allowed the 11th-most half-PPR fantasy points to RBs per game through two weeks. If White is given the green light to play this Sunday, which he should, he will be in play as an RB2 in fantasy.
