Dez White

12/9/2005

The Falcons placed White on season-ending injured reserve with a sprained knee. The receiver, who had plummeted down the depth chart after beginning the year in the starting lineup, had been inactive for four of the last six games.

10/21/2005

A starter over the first month of the 2005 campaign, White has plummeted on the Falcons' depth chart, dropping to fifth, which could result in him being inactive on game days. Veteran Brian Finneran will step into the starting lineup opposite Michael Jenkins, while rookie Roddy White and Jerome Pathon will fill the No. 3 and No. 4 holes, respectively.

10/4/2005

White's strained hamstring continues to show improvement, and the Falcons are optimistic that he will be ready for Sunday's matchup with the New England Patriots. The receiver, who has just one catch for 11 yards this season, will return to the starting lineup once he's back to full strength, according to head coach Jim Mora.

9/29/2005

White made it through Wednesday's practice without any major problems, but he was nowhere nearing being back to full strength. The Falcons' receiver, who missed the team's last game with a strained hamstring, should be able to give it a go in Sunday's meeting with the Minnesota Vikings, but he probably won't start and his time will be limited.

9/27/2005

White will be re-evaluated on Wednesday to determine if he will be able to return to practice with the Atlanta Falcons. The receiver missed the team's last game, due to a strained hamstring, and he's currently questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Minnesota Vikings. His status will be updated later in the week.

9/25/2005

White is out for today's game at Buffalo. Brian Finneran will start in his place, with rookie Roddy White possibly getting a piece of the action.

9/23/2005

If White is unable to practice with the Falcons again on Friday, there is a good chance that he won't be available for Sunday's matchup with the Buffalo Bills. The receiver has been sidelined since straining his hamstring in last weekend's loss to the Seattle Seahawks. He's currently listed as questionable on Atlanta's injury report.

9/21/2005

White is expected to miss some practice time this week, due to a strained hamstring. The Falcons' receiver, who has just one reception in two games this season, was sidelined temporarily late in training camp with a sprained knee as well. He'll be listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Buffalo Bills.

9/7/2005

The sprained knee White suffered in the Falcons' second-to-last preseason game is not giving him problems, and he plans to be ready for Monday night's regular-season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles. With Peerless Price no longer in the mix, White is slated to be in Atlanta's starting lineup this season, opposite Michael Jenkins.

8/28/2005

After spraining his left knee in Thursday's preseason matchup with the Jaguars, White will now sit out the Falcons' final preseason game against the Dolphins as a precautionary measure. The receiver hopes to practice with the team this week and be ready for the start of the regular season.

8/26/2005

White will be limited over the next several days after spraining his left knee in Thursday's preseason meeting with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Although the injury is considered minor, according to Falcons head coach Jim Mora, the receiver will undergo precautionary tests on Friday to rule out any significant damage. For now, he has been listed as day-to-day.
