Overview

  • Multiple insiders report Tennessee has an agreement with White, with ESPN indicating a practice-squad deal that has not been publicly finalized.
  • White posted 137 tackles, 2.5 sacks and 9 tackles for loss with the Cardinals last season.
  • The eighth-year linebacker has 73 career starts and has surpassed 100 tackles in three of the past four seasons.
  • Tennessee reworked its linebackers this offseason, trading Kenneth Murray, losing Jerome Baker, Jack Gibbens and Luke Gifford, and adding Cody Barton with Cedric Gray vying for snaps.
  • The practice-squad arrangement offers immediate veteran depth with potential in-season elevation, and White acknowledged the reports with a celebratory post on X.
