2024 Rush/Rec Projections
2024 Fantasy Outlook
The Eagles opted not to shake up the running back room over the offseason, returning their top four tailbacks from 2023. Atop that list sits White, who handled 85 more carries than any other Georgia Southern rusher, producing 889 yards on the ground with nine touchdowns on 160 carries. White was in a timeshare with OJ Arnold early on but separated himself as the team's preferred ball carrier after posting three consecutive 100-yard games after Arnold went down in Week 8. Although not much changed in the backfield, the Eagles' offense drastically changes at the quarterback position. Davis Brin, who attempted the second-most passes in the nation last season, has graduated. Instead, the team will look to one of JC French - a former Georgia transfer who backed up Brin in 2023 - or Dexter Williams - a senior transfer from Indiana. Regardless of who's under center, the Georgia Southern attack doesn't figure to be as pass-heavy. French did appear in 10 games in 2023 with the Eagles but only attempted 16 passes while rushing the ball 14 times. Williams is also a mobile quarterback and holds a career 34.2 completion percentage but has added 40 rushes for 165 yards in his four collegiate games. As a focal point of the Georgia Southern offense, it wouldn't be surprising to see White handle multiple 20-plus carry games, which bodes exceptionally well for his fantasy value, considering he's averaged 5.6 yards per carry in each of his last three seasons.

Solid showing in Week 10
White totaled 18 carries for 71 yards and one touchdown and gathered in 1 of 2 targets for one yard during Saturday's 34-30 victory over South Alabama.
ANALYSIS
White inexplicably received just two carries in Week 9 but returned to his typical role in Week 10. He logged 3.9 yards per carry on the day and scored his eighth rushing touchdown of the campaign. Across nine games, White has rushed 110 times for 464 yards.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Entering his fourth season, White has a chance to cement himself as one of the best running backs in the Sun Belt. White finished the 2022 campaign with 914 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns to go along with 217 receiving yards and one touchdown through the air. The former three-star running back will continue in his leading role, though the Eagles are a very run-heavy offense (62.8 percent of plays last season), and the departure of Gerald Green from the mix could grant White an even larger slice of the backfield pie this season.
