One day after the Bears announced that first-round draft pick Kevin White would not play in the final three games of the season, coach John Fox explained the team's decision.
"He'd been away from football for a long time, other than a few reps in rookie minicamp and some of the offseason," Fox told reporters Wednesday at Halas Hall. "He really hadn't played football since West Virginia, so we just deemed it best to take him out these last three games and get him ready for next year."
