TAMPA, Fla. -- Inside linebacker Devin White allowed emotions to get the best of him when he requested a trade this offseason, longtime Tampa Bay Buccaneers team captain Lavonte David said Wednesday.
White reported to minicamp to avoid a holdout, but he isn't practicing with the team and instead has watched from the sideline.
"Emotions got the best of him, but he's here," said David, who has mentored White since he was selected fifth overall in the 2019 NFL draft. "He's ready to work. He's not ready to go right now but he's getting himself ready for training camp.
