The most interesting note from Easterling's take on White is the statement the 27-year-old left Tampa because he's "seeking a bigger role." White still tallied 132 rushing attempts and 40 receptions, but if he's wanting more, that means the 6-foot, 214-pounder has his sights set on the lead-back role in Washington.

White seeking lead-back role; receiving skills and vision fit Blough's zone scheme.

The 27-year-old left Tampa Bay seeking a bigger role and is unlikely to embrace the running back by committee approach the Commanders have built. White tallied 132 rushing attempts and 40 receptions with the Bucs before being usurped by second-year pro Bucky Irving. At 6-foot, 214 pounds, he has his sights set on the lead-back role in Washington. He has already made a strong first impression, and his receiving skills combined with natural vision and patience position him well to thrive in the zone-based running schemes new offensive coordinator David Blough is likely to employ.
