The Facts: The Broncos on Wednesday signed White. To make room for the move, running back Kolby Smith was waived.
Diehards Line:White, a Denver native, is a former second-round pick of the Titans, where he spent the first four seasons of his career. As Denver Post staffer Lindsay Jones suggested, White might just be camp body. He is scheduled to miss the first four games of the regular season whiles suspended for violating the NFL's substance-abuse policy. His arrival comes with Smith and fellow backup Lance Ball struggling to get the job done with starter Knowshon Moreno (hamstring) and top backup Correll Buckhalter (upper back) both sidelined by injuries. Moreno is not expected back until after the Broncos' second pre-season game Aug. 21 against Detroit. Buckhalter seemed to suffer stinger-like symptoms in the same practice. He has been medically cleared to practice. But with the NFL mandating greater caution to injuries near the head and neck, the Broncos are expected to keep Buckhalter out until Monday.
