Bears' Kevin White (ankle) to be placed on IR

Kevin White's sophomore campaign was just dealt a major blow.

White suffered a severe high ankle sprain that resulted in a fracture in his fibula in Sunday's win over the Lions, resulting in a trip to the injured reserve list for the second-year wideout, per the team. The Bears are seeking opinions for what to do with White, and surgery is a possibility. If they elect to designate him for return, White is eligible to return in eight weeks.

White was in the midst of his best game as a pro before injury struck.
