2025 Fantasy Outlook
White enters his third year as a pro with a chance to continue his ascent as an edge rusger in New England's retooled defense. The 2023 second-rounder got off to a hot start last year, but his production tapered off as the season wore on, resulting in 56 tackles, including 5.0 sacks, and two forced fumbles across 17 games. Under the team's new coaching staff, the Georgia Tech product gets a fresh start and thus profiles as a breakout candidate in 2025. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a four-year, $7.79 million contract with the Patriots in July of 2023. Traded to the 49ers in October of 2025.
Shot in ankle, undergoes surgery
White was shot in the ankle early Monday morning and is expected to be OK after undergoing surgery, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Per Barrows, the shooting happened during an altercation that White is not believed to have been part of. The defensive end joined the 49ers via a trade with New England in late October and took on a significant rotational role both during the regular season and in the playoffs. White will be in the final year of his rookie contract in 2026, and while it sounds like Monday's events aren't expected to be career-threatening, it remains to be seen if the surgery he underwent will impact his availability for San Francisco's OTAs.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
As a rookie, White recorded just 26 tackles and a sack in 16 games, but Matthew Judon's trade likely clears the way for the 2023 second-rounder to work as a full-time starter opposite edge setter Anfernee Jennings.
