Buffalo Bills star defensive back Tre'Davious White is out for the remainder of the 2021 season after suffering a knee injury in Buffalo's Thanksgiving Day win over the New Orleans Saints. The team announced that the Shreveport native suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament. The seriousness of the injury also rules out the possibility that White could return in time for the playoffs, which begin in mid-January.

"CB Tre'Davious White suffered a torn ACL and will miss the remainder of the 2021 season. Wishing you a speedy recovery, 27."
