“He is currently undergoing surgery at a local hospital,” the 49ers said of White in their statement. “We will provide further updates when appropriate.”
White spent the first two-and-a-half seasons of his NFL career with the New England Patriots before being acquired by the 49ers ahead of the 2025 trade deadline. San Francisco sent a conditional sixth-round pick to the Patriots for White and a conditional seventh-round selection.
White played in nine games with the 49ers during the 2025 NFL season, making two starts. The 27-year-old racked up 12 tackles and 1.5 sacks after joining the team.
