Rachaad White vs Tyler Allgeier: Who Should You Start?
This is a genuine coin flip on paper. Rachaad White finished the 2025 season at 7.2 PPG over 17 games with the Washington Commanders, while Tyler Allgeier clocked in at 6.8 across 17 appearances for the Arizona Cardinals. A 0.4-point gap means any given week could go either way.
With a margin this thin, season averages are not the deciding factor. Weekly variables like opponent defense, game script, and injury status carry more weight than a fraction of a PPG. The right start in Week 6 might be the wrong start in Week 14.
Rachaad White is the receiving back in this matchup, turning 40 targets into 218 yards, while Tyler Allgeier profiles as a more traditional rusher with 514 rushing yards and 8 touchdowns. In PPR and half-PPR formats Rachaad White carries the higher weekly floor. In standard leagues the gap tightens considerably.
One scheduling note: Rachaad White is off Week 14 and Tyler Allgeier Week 11. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in running back for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
