Zamir White To Start Today, A Viable RB2 Option for Week 16

11 months ago

It was reported today by Tom Pelissero from NFL Network that Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (quad/illness) will not be able to play this week against the Kansas City Chiefs. With Jacobs not able to suit up in Week 16, Zamir White will once again function as the lead running back for the Raiders with Ameer Abdullah in the mix as well. Last week against the Chargers with Jacobs out, White had a strong game racking up 17 carries for 69 yards and a touchdown -- while also grabbing three catches on four targets for 16 yards -- good for a total of 17.9 fantasy points in PPR leagues. For fantasy managers with an open roster spot still available, or for those setting DFS lineups today, White should be considered a solid RB2/FLEX option with upside.
