This 2023-24 NFL regular season featured many Las Vegas Raiders players who had the chance to step in and make an impact on the roster.

One of those players was second-year running back Zamir White out of the University of Georgia.

White had the chance to step in and make an impact in the Raiders' running back room late in the season with injuries to starting running back Josh Jacobs that prevented him from playing.

White finished the 2023-24 NFL regular season running on 104 carries for 451 rushing yards and scored one rushing touchdown. He averaged 4.3 yards per carry as well.

According to Pro Football Focus, White ended the season with an overall grade of 71.7, a rushing grade of 70.6, and a receiving grade of 69.7.

Our own Hondo, Carpenter, Sr., had the opportunity to share his thoughts on White on Tuesday's episode of the Las Vegas Raiders Insider Podcast.

"Zamir showed a lot this year, but next year is the year where expectations where he steps up. There's a chance that Josh Jacobs comes back; I know that Antonio Pierce wants him, but even then, you still want to begin to see the transition to Zamir more, so it's going to be fascinating to watch."

"I am a buyer on Zamir. Zamir, as you may remember, last offseason, I was a big buyer on Koonce, and I am a big buyer on Zamir. I like him, I like his style, I like his personality, I like who he is as a man. I am buying on Zamir, but he's a guy coming into his money year. The Raiders got to get more reps next year."
