  • Cardinals' Kyzir White: Officially placed on IR

    White (biceps) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Darrin Urban of the Cardinals' official website reports. White suffered a torn biceps in Sunday's loss to the Texans, so this move was more of a formality. It will be a significant loss for Arizona's defense, as he was a captain and had played a team-high 709 defensive snaps. In his absence, Krys Barnes will presumably fill in at middle linebacker.

  • Cardinals' Kyzir White: Done for year with torn biceps

    White suffered a torn biceps tendon in Sunday's loss to the Texans and will miss the remainder of the season, Bob McManaman of The Arizona Republic reports. White has played a team-high 709 defensive snaps this season as the captain of coach Jonathan Gannon's defense after following him over from the Eagles. White started all 11 games and was on pace for a career year with 90 tackles (53 solo), nine TFLs, two sacks, one interception and three pass breakups. Josh Woods is a candidate to take over as an every-down linebacker.

  • Cardinals' Kyzir White: Cards' leading tackler vs. Falcons

    White recorded 11 tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 25-23 win versus Atlanta. In a game where the Falcons ran the ball 41 times, White was busy, and it showed in the box score. It was the third time this season White's managed a double-digit tackle total, putting him on pace for a career year in that category. The Cardinals will travel to take on a more balanced Houston offense in Week 11.

  • Cardinals' Kyzir White: Records eight tackles, sack Sunday

    White recorded eight tackles (five solo) and one sack in the Cardinals' Week 6 loss to the Rams Sunday.

He also leads the team with 55 tackles (32 solo), adding five tackles for loss, one interception and one pass breakup.

  • Cardinals' Kyzir White: Active in loss

    White tallied 11 tackles (six solo) in the Cardinals' 34-20 loss to the Bengals in Week 5. White's 11 tackles were his second highest total this season. He is now up to 48 (27 solo) through five games. More notably has been his reliability, as the linebacker has not missed a snap through five games, which means he was on the field for 79 snaps Sunday. He will now set his sights on Arizona's Week 6 matchup with the Rams.

  • Cardinals' Kyzir White: Leads team with nine tackles

    White racked up nine tackles, including one for a loss, during Sunday's 20-16 defeat in Washington. White was one of four Cardinals to log all 71 defensive snaps along with safety Budda Baker and cornerbacks Marco Wilson and Kei'Trel Clark, but White made the biggest mark in the box score, tackle-wise. Considering he followed coach Jonathan Gannon from Philadelphia to Arizona this offseason, White appears as if he'll be a weekly beneficiary of that relationship. And White is coming off back-to-back 100-tackle campaigns, meaning he's firmly in the IDP conversation in 2023.

  • Eagles' Kyzir White: Over 100 tackles again

    White finished the regular season with 110 tackles, including 66 solo, as well as 1.5 sacks. White's tackle total represents a step back from the 144 he managed in his final season as a Charger, but it was still a strong mark. He trailed only T.J. Edwards among his Eagles teammates and tied for 39th in the league.

  • Eagles' Kyzir White: Tallies eight tackles in loss

    White recorded eight tackles (five solo) during Sunday's 32-21 loss to the Commanders. White showed up early in this upset loss, as seven of his eight total tackles came in the first half against Washington. The 26-year-old now has 63 tackles (37 solo) and four passes defended this season, and he currently sits behind fellow linebacker T.J. Edwards as the Eagles' second-leading tackler through nine games. Expect White to continue playing a prominent role against Indianapolis this coming Sunday.

  • Chargers' Kyzir White: Massive breakout season

    White finished the 2021 season with 144 tackles (90 solo), three passes defended, two interceptions, two forced fumbles and a sack across 17 games. The 2018 fourth-round pick blossomed in his first full year as the starting middle linebacker as he racked up the eighth-most tackles and solo tackles in the entire league. Always known as an excellent coverage linebacker, White quietly pushed out 2020 first-round pick Kenneth Murray as the team's top linebacker by Week 6 and never looked back. The Chargers' porous run defense might mean changes could be on the horizon for the front seven, but the fourth-year linebacker should be a key fixture next season provided the team opts to bring back the upcoming unrestricted free agent.

  • Chargers' Kyzir White: Double-digit tackles once again

    White tallied 10 tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's 41-22 win over the Bengals. White has been a force for the Chargers since the Week 7 bye, as he now has double-digit tackles in four of his last six appearances. Across that span, the 2018 fourth-rounder has totaled 61 tackles (40 solo) and a pass defense.

  • Chargers' Kyzir White: Leads team in tackles

    White recorded seven tackles (five solo) across 43 defensive snaps in Sunday's win over the Falcons. White missed the past three games after being placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list, but made an immediate impact in his return to the field -- leading the team in tackles Sunday. Despite missing a handful of contests, White is easily putting up the best numbers of his young career as he now has 75 tackles (48 solo) across 10 games on the year.

  • Chargers' Kyzir White: First career sack

    White recorded seven tackles (two solo) and split a sack during Sunday's 39-29 win against the Jaguars. White managed to split his first career sack with defensive end Isaac Rochell during the fourth quarter. While this was certainly a nice moment, it was surprising to see Kenneth Murray play all 100 percent of the defensive snaps, with White only registering 81, and what's worse, Sunday was the first time White did not register double-digit tackles since Week 2. The two have essentially flip-flopped the respective snap counts throughout the season, although both have been a critical factor in the improving Chargers defense. For now, the 24-year-old remains a consistently solid IDP asset.

  • Chargers' Kyzir White: Another solid tackling day

    White tallied 11 tackles (eight solo) in Sunday's 21-16 loss to the Panthers. It was White, not Kenneth Murray, who once again played nearly 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps, cementing the coverage linebacker as a clear option for IDP users even in shallower formats. A suspect run defense as of late could force the Chargers to reconfigure their starting lineup, but those changes likely won't impact White, who appears locked in as the team's preferred three-down linebacker.

  • Chargers' Kyzir White: Could be ready for OTAs

    General manager Tom Telesco said White (knee) will "hopefully" be ready sometime during OTAs, Ricky Henne of the Chargers' official site reports. White was limited to only three games last season after undergoing what was described as a minor knee procedure in early October. The Chargers like the 22-year-old's upside and expect to utilize him at all three linebacker positions in 2019.

  • Chargers' Kyzir White: Likely to sit out Week 9

    White (knee) is considered unlikely to play Sunday at Seattle, Eric D. Williams of ESPN.com reports. White hasn't seen game action since Week 3 and is still recovering from a minor knee surgery he required in early October. With the 22-year-old opening Week 9 preparations as a non-participant in practice, he'll need to demonstrate significant progress in the next two days to have any shot of playing Sunday.

    White recorded six tackles (three solo) in the 38-28 loss to the Chiefs on Sunday. The rookie outside linebacker got the start over Jatavis Brown and promptly tied for the team lead in tackles, playing in 79 percent of the team's defensive snaps. White was one of many young players to stand out during the preseason for the Chargers and will try to carry that success into Week 2 against the Bills.
