Linking up with Eagles White will sign with the Eagles on a one-year deal worth up to $5 million, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact Coming off of his best statistical season to date, White was unable to find a big market for his services this offseason. He ultimately has settled on a one-year deal with the Eagles, likely in hopes of finding a longer-term contract that will net him a larger payday next offseason. He should settle in as an off-ball linebacker, most likely working alongside T.J. Edwards.

Massive breakout season White finished the 2021 season with 144 tackles (90 solo), three passes defended, two interceptions, two forced fumbles and a sack across 17 games.
Impact The 2018 fourth-round pick blossomed in his first full year as the starting middle linebacker as he racked up the eighth-most tackles and solo tackles in the entire league. Always known as an excellent coverage linebacker, White quietly pushed out 2020 first-round pick Kenneth Murray as the team's top linebacker by Week 6 and never looked back. The Chargers' porous run defense might mean changes could be on the horizon for the front seven, but the fourth-year linebacker should be a key fixture next season provided the team opts to bring back the upcoming unrestricted free agent.

Excellent performance despite loss White recorded eight tackles (three solo) including one for a loss, intercepted two passes and picked up a quarterback hit in Sundays 34-6 loss to the Ravens.
Impact White has been an unsung hero for the Chargers since entering the starting lineup last season, but Sunday's performance was easily the best of his career. Known primarily as a coverage linebacker, the fourth-year player snared his first interceptions since 2019 and also helped tie for the team high in tackles. Don't expect a repeat performance anytime soon, however, as the Chargers' upcoming opponents might call for a bit more run-heavy focus, which could limit White's playing time.
