2025 Season Outlooks

White will be the No. 2 running back in Tampa Bay this season behind Bucky Irving, but White is still worth drafting with a mid-round pick in all leagues. Irving took over the Buccaneers backfield last year, but White can still have a prominent role, especially in the passing game. He has at least 50 receptions in three years in a row, and hopefully that continues in 2025. And White could be a lottery ticket if Irving were to miss any time due to injury. Sean Tucker could also be a factor for Tampa Bay, but Irving and White have the most upside. White also averaged a career-best 4.3 yards per carry last season and matched his career-high with nine total touchdowns. He might be trending in the wrong direction because of Irving, but don't be surprised if White is a significant contributor for the Buccaneers and Fantasy managers this year.

White enters his fourth NFL season no longer positioned as Tampa Bay's lead back. The 2022 third-round pick peaked when he finished top 5 among RBs in snaps, touches, carries, routes, catches, yards and fantasy points during a breakout 2023 season, but his pedestrian efficiency led to a reduced role in 2024. White still scored nine TDs and ended up in the top 10 among RBs in targets, catches and receiving yards, but he fell to 23rd in fantasy PPG. One of only two backs with 50-plus receptions in each of the past three seasons (Alvin Kamara is the other), White figures to sustain a pass-catching role in a good offense, but Bucky Irving appears to be the new lead back in Tampa. White is a fine late-round insurance flier.
