Per Eagles beat guy Zach Berman of AllPhly.com, White made a deal with the Eagles to get out of his roughly $3 million guaranteed contract. Why? Because he wants to play.

Uh .. . 

 

"He agreed to terms that would allow for financial relief for the Eagles, according to a league source, in order to be a free agent. He’s now open to sign anywhere. Had the Eagles waited a few more weeks (post-trade deadline, White would have been subject to waivers and would not get to pick his destination. So timing mattered here."

You sure?

According to his fans on here, he’s an elite football player. 

I mean, you saw the the stampede of teams trying to sign him last offseason. I’d expect a similar wave of eager suitors.

White sucks.  From my Eagle fan friends, they said he was a baby in the locker room.  Once he lost the starting job in camp, he didn't travel with the team to Brazil or New Orleans and the icing on the cake was him posting Buc highlights during the Bucs-Eagles game.

i think if David talked Bowles into giving him another chance, it would come with the expectation that he is a back-up and would have to work his way into the line-up to unseat Britt. 

again, at vet minimum, i am not opposed to it, but he would have to be aware that he is dog shit and isn't guaranteed anything.

if he still wants to play in the NFL, which i imagine he does, i am sure the agent will tell him to act more like AB circa 2020 and not 2021.  we shall see.

Bwahahahahahahahahahaha @ White and his defenders.

The dumbest fucking portion of this fanbase. 

Not even close.

 

I don't know what circles you guys run in.  Perhaps you are hanging out at the bingo parlor or something.  I haven't seen one White defender on this board.  But you better get used to the idea that he'll be back in a Bucs uniform very soon.  If you want to mock me for being wrong about that, that's fine.  But as for anybody on this board defending White, I'd like to see some evidence of that.

Speaking of kindling and fire, Devon White burned his bridges here in Tampa. Hard pass. No.

  If anybody thinks White is going to come in and "solve" the Bucs ILB problem that would be wishful thinking and yes if they signed White there would be people who would say "Hey maybe he can resurrect his career etc. etc.!"  That's not going to happen.  No.  Not gonna happen!

But he's had his comeuppance.  He's received his deserved punishment for his stupidity.  He thought he would get $100 mil.  He got a few mil and now he's unemployed.   So how can he not realize the errors of his ways at this point?  IMO the only question should be whether he's any kind of improvement over the current guys at the position, and whether he could at least take away some snaps to keep KJ Britt off the field for part of the time.  In that respect I think we could use Devin White.

White has all the physical tools but seemed to lack football instincts. Always seemed to be a step or 2 behind the play.

Have you not been on this board for the last five years? The were multiple people who defended White’s shitty play nonstop. At least one of them is in this thread. Another claimed White would get $80M as a free agent. He’s probably on and Eagles fan board as we speak.

Are you another one that forgot Bowles benched White for Britt last season? You think White will go in for coverage snaps? Sweet Geebus…

How's that working out?  Well, of course it's Bowles decision to make.  They brought back Whitehead and admitted they made a mistake letting him go.  White is a different situation, but the Bucs aren't afraid to reverse course on something.

Players like White don't want to win and don't want to put in the work to be elite.

He had all the physical tools... But his story ends there.

Thanks for the nice 4 game stretch in the playoffs. Hope you saved some money.

CFL is always open

CBS top 5 destinations

 

Buccaneers 

A possible Tampa reunion? That can't ruled out as the Buccaneers recently placed promising linebacker SirVocea Dennis on injured reserve. Unlike the other teams on this list, White knows the Buccaneers' defensive system and wouldn't need an acclimation period. 

 

the football acumen police will be along momentarily

Considering your track record of claiming who will and who won't be on the team, I don't think I have to get used to shit. 

🤣

Wrong again, kiddo.

Bowles isn't the one making that decision.

but he would have to be aware that he is dog shit

Licht made that pretty clear when he didn't extend him and made him play out his option. 

As did FA this past offseason.
