Tre'Davious White gets devastating news about injury

News that Tre'Davious White's season was done cast a pall over the Bills locker room after Buffalo had just played a masterful game against the Miami Dolphins.

White suffered an Achilles’ injury in the third quarter on a play where the Buffalo defense came up with a fourth-down stop. It was a devastating sight for the coaches, the players, the entire organization, really, to see White crying on the field, knowing exactly what had happened and what it meant.

“Sometimes you just wonder why?” Sean McDermott said, clearly emotional as he addressed the situation after the game. “He worked so hard to get back … he personifies what it means to be a Buffalo Bill. To see him on the field the way he was hurting, that's hard, that's hard to watch."

It’s a brutal game, and no player is immune to injury, but for White, it really is a cruel blow given that he missed a full calendar year between Thanksgiving 2021 and 2022 with a blown out right knee and had worked so hard to resume his career.

There were struggles last year to get back to full speed, but he was there at the start of this season and now, all that work goes down the tubes and he’ll have to start all over again with an entirely different and terrible injury to overcome.

“It breaks my heart, it really does,” Josh Allen said. Not sure the extent of it but you never want to see your teammates on the floor pounding their fists. It just sucks. He’s worked his ass off to get back to playing the way we know Tre can play football and it truly breaks my heart.”
