Raiders Week 4 snap counts vs Chiefs: Cody White gets big promotion

A few weeks ago Cody White was unemployed. And last week he was on the team's practice squad. Now he's getting starter snaps for the Raiders.

In a significant development for the Raiders, wide receiver Cody White has claimed a prominent position in the snap count against the Chiefs. White, who was once on the team's practice squad and had limited playing time with the Seahawks, has rapidly risen through the ranks. Just weeks ago, he found himself unemployed, but his hard work has paid off as he now receives most of the offense's snaps.

During the game against Kansas City, White dominated with 52 snaps, accounting for 62% of the team's pass plays. His perseverance has been rewarded with two catches for 36 yards and a crucial two-point conversion at the end of the game. While other key players, such as Jalen Nailor, received fewer snaps (19 in total), White's consistent performance has propelled him to the forefront of the Raiders' receiving corps.
