San Francisco 49ers undrafted rookie wide receiver DeAndrew White has been the talk of camp this offseason. The wide receiver is getting glowing reports from everyone who has seen him.

Despite all the positive reports, White is not yet satisfied. He has a lot to prove after going undrafted and doesn't want to just make the team, but wants to make an impact on the field.

“I’m a hard-worker and ultra-competitive,” White said, via 49ers.com. “I just can’t wait for the opportunity to showcase my talent. I know what I want to achieve, and I know that I need to get better than what I’ve been doing.

“The NFL is not for everybody, but I feel like I’m at home; I feel like I belong here. I know I’m going to succeed. This is just the beginning.”

White had multiple teams pursuing him after the draft, but chose the 49ers because he felt like it was his best shot to not only make a team, but be around for multiple years.

“I decided I didn’t want to do the money grab,” White said. “I made the best choice for my career. I don’t regret it at all. I love the facility, I love the program, I love the staff and I love the team.”

White knows he can help the team in multiple ways and can't wait to get back to training camp to continue to showcase his skills.

“The more versatile you are, the better chance you have to be on the field,” White said. “I like to try to take advantage of that because I’m an athlete. I can do a lot of things.”
