The Lions placed White (forearm) on injured reserve Friday.
White was diagnosed with a broken forearm following the Lions' Week 5 win over the Cardinals. He'll be required to miss at least the next four games on IR, and while he's likely to be sidelined past that minimum window, there's optimism that the veteran linebacker will return at some point this season. Malcolm Rodriguez is the next man up at linebacker in White's absence.

Lions' Devin White: Expected to return this season
Rotowire

White broke his forearm during the first half of Sunday's 45-21 win over the Cardinals. He'll likely be placed on injured reserve over the coming days, but Campbell has at least left the door open for White to return this season once fully healthy. Malcolm Rodriguez figures to step into a starting role at linebacker for as long as White is sidelined.

Devin White: Gets let go
Rotowire
White was released by the Eagles on Tuesday.
White was expected to land a starting role in Philadelphia when he joined the team on a one-year contract in March. However, things didn't go as planned for the LSU product, who never ended up suiting up for the Eagles. An ankle injury derailed his start to the season, but even once healthy the 26-year-old was inactive as a healthy scratch and most recently missed the team's last game for personal reasons. It's unclear where White will go from here and if the personal reasons for his latest absence are due to a falling out with the team or something that could keep him away from the football field for a while.

His Philadelphia debut will have to wait at least one week, however, as White didn't make the trip to Brazil after he was limited in practice Tuesday due to the injury. Per Ashlyn Sullivan of NBC Sports Philadelphia, Nakobe Dean is the most likely candidate to start alongside Zack Baun at inside linebacker sans White.
