Buccaneers' White Injured, Backup Role Shifts

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White suffered a groin injury in the first quarter of the team's preseason opener against the Tennessee Titans and was ruled out for the rest of the game. White, who rushed six times for 28 yards before exiting, was observed limping and pointing to his groin, leading to immediate caution from the team. The severity of the injury is still unknown, and the quick decision to pull him may reflect a precautionary approach. White, now in the final year of his rookie contract, has already lost his starting role to Bucky Irving, who did not play in the opener. If White misses significant time, Sean Tucker is expected to become the primary backup behind Irving. The Buccaneers will monitor White's status as they assess the team's running back depth for the season.
