It’s really odd to look at Roddy White and see a grade that low next to his name, but that’s what he has been thus far in 2015. After catching four passes in week 1, White has caught just two passes since. White went catchless in back-to-back games for the first time in his NFL career and caught just two passes for eight yards in week 4 against the Houston Texans.

White is frustrated with the lack of catches and rightfully so. He’s the franchise leading receiver in yards. Whether or not it has been White’s fault or not, he needs to step it up in order to turn his dreadful season around. Let’s hope he can do it.
