Zamir White Week 2 Outlook - Raiders at Ravens

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Sep 12th 2024, 1:05pm EDT

White's Week 1 stat line was sobering. White played only 38% of the snaps, with 15 touches and 46 total yards. He only posted an 8% missed tackles forced per attempt rate and 2.0 yards after contact per attempt, but let's not freak out after one week. His 2024 tackle-breaking numbers as the starter were solid. It was more concerning that he conceded the passing downs to Alexander Mattison, who played 73% of the passing down snaps. White did have a stranglehold on the early down work with a 68% snap rate on rushing plays. On paper, White's rushing matchup against Baltimore doesn't look imposing. Last week, Baltimore ranked 15th in explosive run rate allowed and stuff rate while giving up the fifth-most missed tackles per attempt. A lot of these numbers track with their 2023 performance, as the Ravens allowed the 13th-highest explosive run rate and the eighth-highest missed tackles per attempt last year. The biggest concern for White isn't the rushing matchup but rather getting game scripted out like last week.
