The Facts: Following up on the ongoing story. ... If any team signs White, it can't expect to have him for the first four games of the 2010 season. Jason La Canfora of NFL Network reports that White is facing a four-game drug suspension.
Diehards Line:As PFT's Michael David Smith notes, it's not clear whether the Seahawks, who waived White today, knew of the pending suspension when they acquired him in a trade with the Titans during the NFL draft. That said, La Canfora reports that the reasons for the Seahawks releasing him go beyond the suspension. ESPN.com's Mike Sando lent further credence to that notion when he suggested earlier today that Seahawks officials questioned White's overall commitment to playing.
