Buccaneers Backfield Shake-Up: Is Rachaad White on His Way Out?

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are seeing a shift in their backfield dynamics as former starter Rachaad White has officially been moved to RB2 behind breakout star Bucky Irving. After leading the Bucs’ rushing attack for most of the past three seasons, White now finds himself in a supporting role after Irving exploded for 1,122 yards and 8 touchdowns in 2024. Adding to the intrigue, White posted a cryptic “One last ride?” message on Instagram, sparking speculation about his future as he enters a contract year. While White still offers value as a third-down receiving back and top-tier pass protector, the Bucs now boast a three-headed monster with Irving, White, and emerging talent Sean Tucker — who flashed brilliance in limited action.Elsewhere, the Buccaneers are drawing national attention with a top-10 overall roster ranking from Pro Football Focus. The offense remains the team’s biggest strength, retaining key contributors and adding explosive rookies like Emeka Egbuka and Tez Johnson. However, questions remain on defense, particularly in pass coverage, where the Bucs ranked in the bottom third of the league last season. The front office has responded by drafting multiple defenders and acquiring edge rusher Haason Reddick. Meanwhile, rumors are swirling around wide receiver Trey Palmer, with the Steelers reportedly expressing interest. With roster battles heating up, Tampa Bay is gearing up for what could be a pivotal 2025 campaign.This Father’s Day, Felon HQ is hooking you up with a criminally good deal—20% off sitewide when you use promo code MINUTECAST at checkout!
