"Running back could very well be one of them. Antonio Gibson is already out for the season with a knee injury, and Rhamondre Stevenson is now dealing with a toe issue. Mike Vrabel and company can ill afford any more injuries in that room, especially given how inconsistent the run game has been throughout the first half of the season."
"White has been buried in the depth chart in Las Vegas, with Ashton Jeanty and Raheem Mostert the Raiders' top two backs. He only has 10 carries for 25 yards this season. But White could be a solid third-down option or a receiving back option for the Patriots. Stevenson and Henderson are clearly the team's top two backs, but the big wrinkle here is McDaniels. White was coached by McDaniels in Las Vegas and has averaged 6.1 yards per reception during his career."
The Patriots face running back depth problems after Antonio Gibson suffered a season-ending knee injury and Rhamondre Stevenson developed a toe issue. The running game has been inconsistent through the season's first half, creating urgency for reinforcements. Zamir White of the Raiders is underused, with only 10 carries for 25 yards this season behind Ashton Jeanty and Raheem Mostert. White has averaged 6.1 yards per reception and could serve as a third-down receiving back option. Josh McDaniels previously coached White in Las Vegas, which could ease a transition. Any trade would likely cost a late-round draft pick.
