Who Should I Start? Zamir White or Bhayshul Tuten

Las Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White saw his usage climb in Week 2 but failed to capitalize on the opportunity. After logging just a 14% snap share in the opener, the veteran's workload jumped to 30% against the Chargers. However, the results were disappointing -- White lost two yards on his two rushing attempts and caught two of three targets for 15 yards. With Raheem Mostert inactive the past two weeks but waiting in the wings, White's inefficiency could put his role as the Raiders' RB2 in jeopardy. Fantasy managers may want to monitor this backfield closely, as Mostert's presence could quickly shift the pecking order.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten (shoulder) was listed as a limited participant in the first practice of the week on Wednesday. Tuten was also limited during practice last week with a shoulder injury, but he ended up playing in the Week 3 win over the Houston Texans and went for 21 rushing yards and his first NFL rushing touchdown on six carries. He failed to catch his only target. The 23-year-old wasn't as efficient as he was in the Week 2 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, but he was able to find the end zone for the second straight week as the change-of-pace back behind Travis Etienne Jr. Barring a setback with his shoulder, Tuten should be fine to suit up for a Week 4 meeting against a San Francisco 49ers defense that just lost Nick Bosa (knee) for the year. Consider Tuten an upside RB3/flex play this weekend.
