Who Should I Start? Tyrion Davis-Price or Rachaad White

Friday, September 1, 9:55 AM

San Francisco 49ers running back Tyrion Davis-Price has earned himself a spot on the 53-man roster. The former third-round pick is coming off a disappointing rookie campaign. He rushed 34 times for 99 yards and was held without a touchdown in six games with the 49ers last season. He's expected to be a depth option alongside Jordan Mason (foot) in the backfield. The expectation is that Christian McCaffrey and Elijah Mitchell will take a majority of the snaps to begin the season. It's worth noting that the 49ers had plenty of injury problems in the backfield last season. That being said, Davis-Price might end up having a role if the backfield doesn't stay healthy. For now, Davis-Price can be ignored in fantasy formats with the starters healthy.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White has been a workhorse back for this offense early in the season. Last week, White rushed for over 70 yards in the victory over the Chicago Bears. Sadly, White wasn't able to carry over that success into the Monday night matchup versus the Philadelphia Eagles. The second-year back rushed 14 times for 38 yards, while adding three receptions for 24 yards through the air. It's also worth noting that White lost a key fumble for the Bucs during this game. It was a tough game for White, but he should bounce back from this performance. He'll be on the flex radar for the Week 4 matchup versus the New Orleans Saints.
