Former Buffalo Bills’ All-Pro cornerback Tre’Davious White, is preparing to make a daring comeback.
In a bold move, he has inked a one-year, $8.5 million contract with the Los Angeles Rams, sources reveal.
White’s representatives, Kevin Conner and Robert Brown, disclosed the deal publicly.
The contract, which has a potential value of up to $10 million, gives the Rams surplus strength, especially after their unfortunate wild-card round defeat.
White’s signing by the Rams occurs post his June 1 release from the Buffalo Bills. This maneuver awarded the Bills with much-needed cap space of $10.2 million.

At 29, White underwent a rehabilitation procedure after a right Achilles injury.
Compounding White’s recent adversity is a left ACL injury that benched him on Thanksgiving 2021.
Despite these drawbacks, the former Buffalo Bills star returned for six regular-season games and two playoff games in 2022.
Before the string of injuries, the 2017 first-round pick had an excellent form. Over his stint in the NFL, White has missed only three games and was never thought to undergo a major surgery.
White boasts a record of 18 interceptions, 68 defended passes, 311 successful tackles, and 5 forced fumbles throughout his professional football journey.
His prominent year was 2019, where he led the NFL with six interceptions, earning him recognition as a first-team All-Pro.
