Bills' Tre'Davious White: Dealing with lower-leg injury
Rotowire
Coach Sean McDermott said Saturday that White recently underwent an MRI for a lower-leg injury, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.
White played 19 defensive snaps in the Bills' preseason opener back on Aug. 9 but didn't appear in either of the next two exhibitions. Bills general manager Brandon Beane said there is no timeline for White's return. Buffalo is already without first-round rookie cornerback Maxwell Hairston after he injured his knee early in training camp. Hairston has yet to return to practice and remains "a ways away" from beginning a ramping up process, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reported Tuesday.

Bills' Tre'Davious White: May be in spotlight early
Rotowire
White's teammate Maxwell Hairston is expected to be sidelined for at least the next three weeks after being diagnosed with an LCL sprain in his right knee, meaning White could take on a more prominent role as the regular season draws near, Alec White and Kay Racine report.
Hairston was the team's first-round pick back in April, and the plan seemed to be to have him start right away, with White -- who was a first-rounder himself in 2017 -- set to serve as a mentor and steady backup presence. That plan may change now if Hairston can't get enough reps in before the Week 1 opener vs. the Ravens. If White does see a starter's snap count early on in the season, he could be a good source of tackles given that he'd be playing opposite the team's top corner in Christian Benford. Dane Jackson is also in the mix for more potential action.

Ravens' Tre'Davious White: Headed for free agency
Rotowire
White made 10 tackles (seven solo) and three pass breakups across seven regular-season appearances with the Ravens in 2024. He also suited up for four regular-season games with the Rams, making 12 tackles (nine solo) and two pass breakups.
White, who recently celebrated his 30th birthday, is set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason. The veteran cornerback has endured numerous serious injuries since 2021, including two ACL tears and a torn Achilles, but he managed to stay relatively healthy in 2024 en route to 11 combined regular-season appearances while also suiting up for both of Baltimore's playoff games.

Ravens' Tre'Davious White: Questionable to play Houston
Rotowire
White (shoulder) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice and is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Texans.
White didn't participate in the first two walkthroughs of the week due to a shoulder injury he likely picked up during the Ravens' 34-17 win over the Steelers this past Saturday. With Jalyn Armour-Davis (hamstring) already ruled out for Christmas Day, T.J. Tampa would serve as the backup outside corner behind Nate Wiggins and Brandon Stephens if White is not cleared to play.

Ravens' Tre'Davious White: Active for Week 11
Rotowire
White will play in Sunday's tilt against Pittsburgh, Ryan Mink of the Ravens' official site reports.
Baltimore acquired White in a trade with the Rams on Nov. 5, but the veteran cornerback was a healthy scratch for the Ravens' Week 10 Thursday game against Cincinnati since it came just two days after he joined the team. White has since had enough time to get familiar with the team's defensive playbook and will see his first action as a Raven on Sunday. It's not clear how much work he'll get, though, as he's set for a rotational role with Baltimore.

Ravens' Tre'Davious White: Won't see action Thursday
Rotowire
White (coach's decision) is inactive for Thursday's Week 10 battle against the Bengals.
White was acquired by the Ravens on Tuesday, which gave him very little time to learn the team's defensive playbook given the Thursday night contest. White's team debut is likely to come Sunday, Nov. 17 against Pittsburgh. When he is ready to take the field for the Ravens, White will likely serve in a rotational role in the secondary.

Ravens' Tre'Davious White: Unlikely to play versus Bengals
Rotowire
White is not expected to play Thursday versus Cincinnati, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
No health issue has been reported, so it's probably the case that White, who was traded to Baltimore on Tuesday, just didn't have enough time to learn the intricacies of the Ravens' defensive scheme. His next chance to play would come in Week 11 at Pittsburgh.

Rams' Tre'Davious White: Given permission to seek trade
Rotowire
Head coach Sean McVay told reporters Monday that the Rams have given White permission to seek a trade, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
White has been a healthy scratch in each of the Rams' last two games, so it's no surprise he wants out of Los Angeles. The 29-year-old cornerback has struggled in coverage this season, allowing almost 15 yards per completion and four touchdowns through four games. Cobie Durant and Josh Wallace are expected to remain the Rams' top outside cornerbacks while White and his agent seek a trade suitor.

Rams' Tre'Davious White: Inactive again for Week 7
Rotowire
White (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
White was a healthy scratch for the Rams' Week 5 loss to the Packers and will remain on the sideline, even with Los Angeles coming out of its bye week. After a laundry list of lower-body injuries in his career, the 29-year-old White hasn't looked capable of keeping up with NFL wide receivers in coverage.

Rams' Tre'Davious White: Won't suit up Sunday
Rotowire
White (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Packers, Wyatt Miller of the Rams' official site reports.
White started each of the Rams' first four games, recording 12 tackles and two pass defenses. However, it appears he's been benched, so Darious Williams, Ahkello Witherspoon and Josh Wallace are candidates for increased roles versus Green Bay.

Rams' Tre'Davious White: Making good recovery progress
Rotowire
Coach Sean McVay said during June minicamp that White (Achilles) is "making good progress" but is uncertain for the start of training camp in late July, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.
White is currently working his way back from a right Achilles' tendon tear that cut his 2023 season short in October, and in 2022 he only suited up for six games before suffering a torn ACL. Since signing a one-year deal with the Rams, White has spent most of the offseason working off to the side with trainers, but he was reportedly able to participate in walkthroughs during the final week of OTAs. The 29-year-old figures to start at cornerback when he's healthy, but it remains to be seen whether he'll be ready to practice by the start of training camp, or to play a full share of snaps Week 1.

Tre'Davious White: Time up in Buffalo
Rotowire
The Bills will release White (Achilles) on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
White, a two-time Pro Bowl cornerback, will be designated as a post-June 1 cut, a move that saves Buffalo $10.2 million in cap space with $6.2 million in dead money and leaves him free to sign with another club at the start of the new league year. Formerly one of the league's best cornerbacks, questions now linger about White's health while he works his way back from surgery to address a right Achilles' tendon tear, which he suffered in October. His 2021 season came to an early end due to an ACL tear and limited him to just six regular-season contests in 2022.

Bills' Tre'Davious White: Day to Day with injury
Rotowire
Head coach Sean McDermott says Benford is currently day to day with a shoulder injury, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.
Benford hurt his shoulder during Sunday's win against the Dolphins and is now questionable for the upcoming game against the Jaguars. With Tre'Davious White (Achilles) out for the year, Buffalo could be extremely thin at corner if the 23-year-old is unable to play.

Bills' Tre'Davious White: May have suffered Achilles injury
Rotowire
White has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dolphins and is being evaluated for a right Achilles injury after being carted off the field.
White went down in the fourth quarter with what appeared to be a non-contact injury, potentially putting the 28-year-old's availability beyond Week 4 in jeopardy. The standout cornerback previously suffered a torn ACL in November 2021, though that injury was to his left leg. White recorded three solo tackles and a pass breakup before exiting the contest.

White made his return from the injured reserve this week and didn't have any sort of injury designation ahead of the Week 9 matchup, but he'll ultimately end up sidelined. Look for Taron Johnson to again get a start at cornerback opposite Dane Jackson.

Bills' Tre'Davious White: Done for season with torn ACL
Rotowire
White will miss the rest of the season, as the knee injury he suffered in Thursday's win over the Saints was a torn ACL, Chris Jenkins of the Bills' official site reports.
This is a huge loss for the vaunted Bills defense, as White is among the league's stingiest shutdown cornerbacks. Dane Jackson likely will slide into the starting role opposite Levi Wallace, occupying the opening created by White's injury, while Taron Johnson continues to man the slot.

Bills' Tre'Davious White: Limited ahead of KC matchup
Rotowire
White was listed as limited Wednesday due to a shoulder issue.
We'd be pretty surprised if the star cornerback isn't out there this week when the team takes on the Chiefs in one of the better games on the regular-season slate. The White-Tyreek Hill matchup is must-see TV for football mavens. Still, IDP managers will look to see if White can work toward a clean designation by the time the Bills finish their work Friday.

Bills' Tre'Davious White: Back at practice
Rotowire
Coach Sean McDermott said Wednesday that White (shoulder) will participate in practice, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
The Bills won't release an official injury report until Thursday, so it's uncertain whether White will handle limited or full practice reps Wednesday. Of course, it's encouraging to see the star cornerback on the field in any capacity after he was forced out of last weekend's win over the Broncos due to a shoulder issue.

Bills' Tre'Davious White: Ready to face Cardinals
Rotowire
White (ankle) does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.
White's ankle injury forced him out late during last weekend's win over the Seahawks, but he resumed practicing in full Friday. All signs point to the star cornerback being a full-go for Sunday's tilt in Arizona, in which he'll likely face the task of holding DeAndre Hopkins in check.
