White (shoulder) rushed seven times for 18 yards while catching his only target for two yards in Sunday's 27-27 tie against the Giants.
White recorded 20 scrimmage yards on seven touches in his return from a one-game absence due to a shoulder injury. Jacory Croskey-Merritt led Washington's running backs with 11 carries for 82 yards and a touchdown, while White and Austin Ekeler each drew one target out of the backfield. Ekeler's return to Washington could prove problematic for White, as the two veteran running backs could split passing-down work while Croskey-Merritt continues to get most of the carries. White could get more opportunities if the Commanders are forced to play catch-up against the 5-0 49ers in Week 6.
Head coach Dan Quinn said Friday that White (shoulder) will play Sunday against the Giants, Tashan Reed of The Washington Post reports.
After missing last Sunday's game with the shoulder issue, White now appears set to return to Washington's backfield as the pass-catching complement to Jacory Croskey-Merritt. White's return will likely mute Austin Ekeler's role, though this could turn into a three-man backfield, leaving none of the trio as enticing fantasy options. White has produced 151 yards on 31 touches this season.
Everyone sharing the ball with Rachaad, most valuable first.
Above the line the plan was to throw; below it, to run.
White (shoulder) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Giants.
A shoulder injury prevented White from playing against the Colts in Week 4, but the fifth-year running back has been cleared to return for Week 5 after logging three consecutive limited practices. Jacory Croskey-Merritt (groin) also has been cleared to play Sunday, so White and Austin Ekeler both figure to operate in rotational roles out of the backfield.
White (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Colts.
White missed practice all week due to a shoulder injury and won't suit up in London. Rookie Kaytron Allen and newly-signed Austin Ekeler will spell Jacory Croskey-Merritt out of the Washington backfield versus Indianapolis.

White (hamstring) wasn't listed on the Commanders' initial Week 1 injury report Wednesday.
White had been tending to a hamstring issue since mid-August, but his ability to avoid the practice report entirely Wednesday indicates he's put the injury behind him. Meanwhile, Jacory Croskey-Merritt (groin) was limited to kick off Week 1 prep, leaving one big question mark in Washington's backfield ahead of Sunday's game in Philadelphia.
Commanders coach Dan Quinn said Thursday that White has stood out at OTAs and minicamp, particularly as a pass catcher, per Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site.
White has put himself in position to earn a meaningful role in a Commanders backfield that also has Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Kaytron Allen, Jerome Ford and Jeremy McNichols vying for roles. Quinn didn't commit to the team having a designated starter at running back, but White seems to have the most well-rounded skill set of the group, as he can contribute both on the ground and as a receiver out of the backfield.
