3 years agoWhite received the nickname "Zeus" as he developed into a football and track star in high school and later emerged as the ninth overall player and the highest-ranked running back among all members of his 2018 class. He also suffered two torn ACLs before registering a touch at Georgia, but eventually started 22 games, and led the Bulldogs in attempts (144), rushing yardage (779), and rushing touchdowns (11) during 2020. He also paced the team in each category in 2021 (160 attempts/856 yards/11 touchdowns) and generated those results while operating in a backfield that contained an abundance of talent. White raised his stock considerably at the NFL Combine by completing the 40-yard dash in 4.40, and tying for first among backs in the broad jump (10', 8"). He joins a Raider backfield that has been led by Josh Jacobs in attempts (17.0 per game), rushing yardage (71.8 per game), and rushing touchdowns (28) during each of the last three seasons. However, Las Vegas head coach Josh McDaniels and general manager Dave Ziegler traded up to secure White in Round 4 of April's NFL Draft, while also eschewing their chance to exercise the fifth-year option on Jacobs. This bodes well for White, who is physical, explosive, and can also be effective between the tackles. He should confiscate a percentage of early-down snaps from Jacobs, and his workload could expand considerably if Jacobs is no longer on the roster in 2023. White can be targeted at his ADP in dynasty start-up drafts (130/RB43) and should exceed the expectations of his draft position in best-ball leagues (250/RB64).--Phil Clark - RotoBaller

4 months agoThe Las Vegas Raiders announced on Tuesday that they placed running back Zamir White (quadriceps) on Injured Reserve and signed quarterback Carter Bradley to the 53-man active roster from the practice squad in a corresponding move. The Raiders also signed quarterback Jake Luton and defensive tackle Tyler Manoa to the practice squad and released defensive tackle Marquan McCall from the practice squad. White is now done for the rest of the 2024 season with the move. The 25-year-old was in line for lead-back duties after Josh Jacobs left in free agency, but he fell flat with the opportunity and gave way to Alexander Mattison early in the year. White ends up being a massive disappointment in his third year in the league with 183 rushing yards and one touchdown on 65 carries through eight games. Sincere McCormick has become a bigger part of Vegas' backfield of late with Mattison also hurt.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

4 months agoAccording to Paul Gutierrez of ESPN, Las Vegas Raiders running backs Zamir White (quadriceps) has been ruled out, and Alexander Mattison (ankle) has been listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. White will now miss his third-straight contest. Mattison has remained a limited participant during this week's practices and could be in line to return following his two-game absence. Over the past two weeks, veteran Ameer Abdullah has operated as the lead back and averaged a modest 33.5 rushing with 25.5 receiving yards per game. However, depth option Sincere McCormick has shown flashes over this stint, as he has posted a solid 5.7 yards per carry. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor Mattison's status over the weekend as he would likely reclaim his lead role if he can suit up on Sunday.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

4 months agoLas Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White (quadriceps) missed yet another practice on Thursday. White has missed the team's last two games and appears to be well on his way to missing a third straight this Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers unless he's able to get back on the practice field on Friday. It's been a very disappointing season for the 25-year-old, who opened the year with a shot at lead-back duties after Josh Jacobs left in free agency in the offseason. White squandered his opportunity and let Alexander Mattison jump him on the depth chart early in the year. He's averaging a measly 2.8 yards per carry on 65 rushing attempts for the season in eight games (five starts), and he hasn't seen double-digit carries since Sept. 29. Even if White miraculously returns for the Week 14 contest against the Bucs this weekend, he should remain on the waiver wire in most fantasy leagues.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

4 months agoLas Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White (quadriceps) missed the team's first practice of the week on Wednesday. White has missed the last two games due to a quadriceps injury and isn't on the right track to return this weekend when the team travels to Tampa to take on the Buccaneers on Sunday. Meanwhile, Alexander Mattison (ankle), who has missed the last two games as well, was limited on Wednesday. Even if White were to get back to practice later this week and play on Sunday, he'd likely be the RB3 for Vegas behind both Mattison and Ameer Abdullah. The 25-year-old opened the year with an opportunity to be the Raiders' lead back, but he squandered that chance and is now just looking to get healthy again. White is averaging a dreadful 2.8 yards per carry on 65 attempts through eight games in 2024 and is now rostered in only 21% of Yahoo fantasy leagues.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
