Kyzir White Fantasy

Free-agent linebacker Kyzir White signed a two-year, $11 million maximum deal with the Arizona Cardinals on Tuesday, according to sources. White played a crucial role for the Philadelphia Eagles defense last year, totaling 110 tackles, seven passes defensed and three tackles for loss in 17 regular season games (eight starts). He also had 1.5 sacks. The 26-year-old is on the rise after back-to-back seasons of 100-plus tackles with the Eagles and Los Angeles Chargers. White should see regular playing time in a Cardinals linebacking group that also includes talented playmakers Zaven Collins and Isaiah Simmons. He doesn't have a ton of upside because of his lack of sacks, but White can be useful as an IDP streamer at the position.

The Philadelphia Eagles have signed linebacker Kyzir White to a one-year deal. The former fourth round pick will receive $5 million for the 2022 season. He had a breakout season with the Los Angeles Chargers in 2021. White recorded 144 tackles, seven tackles for loss, and two interceptions in 17 games. The former college safety has excelled as an off-ball linebacker. This is a significant upgrade to the Eagles linebacker group and defense as a whole.

Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Kyzir White (COVID-19 list) was placed on the COVID-19/reserve list Saturday, although it was not revealed whether he tested positive or was merely in contact with someone who had. Due to the ambiguity around the move, it's unclear whether Sunday's contest between the Chargers and Jets is in jeopardy, but the lack of fervor around the transaction indicates that things are moving forward as planned. White has compiled a career-high 68 tackles through the first nine games of the 2020 season, adding three passes defended, three quarterback hits, and half a sack to his stat sheet. Even without White, the Chargers Defense is in a golden fantasy spot Sunday, facing Joe Flacco and the Jets, who have struggled mightily to score this year.
