Bills cornerback Tre’Davious White was designated to return from the physically unable to perform list, but he will not play this week when Buffalo matches up with the Kansas City Chiefs.
White, a two-time Pro Bowl selection, tore his ACL during a Thanksgiving Day win over the New Orleans Saints last season. He’s been on the PUP list and designated him for return gives the Bills a 21-day window to place White on the 53-man roster.
“We’re just excited for him to be out there,” Bills coach Sean McDermott said in confirming White would practice with the Bills on Wednesday for the first time since November.
“I don’t want to get into the details too much. We’re going to not only take it day by day, but play by play. Tre’ has worked extremely hard, but we want to crawl before we walk.”
After playing the Chiefs on Sunday, the Bills have a bye week before a game with the Green Bay Packers in Week 8.
White, 27, has spent the first five seasons of his NFL career with Buffalo and played in 72 games, all starts.
He was a first-team All-Pro selection in 2019 along with earning Pro Bowl nods in 2019 and 2020. He has 16 interceptions, 60 pass breakups, five forced fumbles, five fumble recoveries and 279 tackles for his career.
