Prime Time Roddy White

Prime Time Roddy White

On the same day Prime Time Deion Sanders was inducted into the Atlanta Falcons ring of honor, Atlanta Falcon WR Roddy White put on a prime time performance of his own and ensured that even the casual fan will now know his name.

Roddy White exploded for 12 receptions, 138 yards and 2 TD’s against Ray Lewis’ Baltimore Ravens under the prime time lights of Thursday Night Football and this connection between Matt Ryan and Roddy White is one of the most special in the league.

They have a few more years together contracts notwithstanding and Arthur Blank will undoubtedly to everything within his power to ensure this tandem stays together until Roddy is ready to retire.

Roddy White has 70 receptions and 938 yards to go with 7 TD’s through 9 games and is now on pace to shatter all of his career highs in receiving.

Roddy White is legit and has emerged as a top-5 WR in PPR leagues and he is also arguably top-5 in standard leagues. I also have him listed as a top-5 in dynasty leagues.

Roddy White shows no signs of slowing down and even an injured knee could not stop him from going off against the Ravens even though he was moving noticeably slower and his timing was thus off causing a few drops.

Congratulations Roddy White owners, you are well on your way to winning this week and hopefully your league.
