2025 Fantasy Outlook
White enters his third year as a pro with a chance to continue his ascent as an edge rusger in New England's retooled defense. The 2023 second-rounder got off to a hot start last year, but his production tapered off as the season wore on, resulting in 56 tackles, including 5.0 sacks, and two forced fumbles across 17 games. Under the team's new coaching staff, the Georgia Tech product gets a fresh start and thus profiles as a breakout candidate in 2025. Read Past Outlooks
Sent to Bay Area
The 49ers acquired White and a 2026 seventh-round pick from the Patriots on Tuesday in exchange for a 2026 sixth-round pick, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
The Patriots selected White in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft, and the Georgia Tech product was an integral piece to New England's defensive line through his first two seasons with the organization. However, White saw his playing time dip over the course of the 2025 campaign, culminating in a healthy DNP for Week 8 against the Browns, per Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site. White's addition gives the 49ers added depth at defensive end, which is crucial given that Nick Bosa (knee) and Tarron Jackson (undisclosed) are both on injured reserve. The Niners' defensive line is also riddled with injuries to Bryce Huff (hamstring), Yetur Gross-Matos (knee/hamstring), Sam Okuayinonu (ankle), Jordan Elliott (ankle) and Alfred Collins (shoulder), which could force San Francisco to have White active for Sunday's game against the Giants.

As a rookie, White recorded just 26 tackles and a sack in 16 games, but Matthew Judon's trade likely clears the way for the 2023 second-rounder to work as a full-time starter opposite edge setter Anfernee Jennings.
