The Las Vegas Raiders wanted to see what they have in second-year tailback Zamir White in the team’s preseason opener against the San Francisco 49ers last Sunday, so much so, they gave the Georgia product seven carries during their 10-play scoring drive.
The 6-foot and 215-pounder’s one-yard touchdown plunge on 3rd-and-goal capped the Raiders opening drive with White running well and churning out 28 yards on those seven carries.
But as the game progressed, White’s effectiveness waned.
The 2022 fourth-round pick produced only 15 more yards on his next six carries and finished with a very pedestrian 3.
