Sent back to practice squad
The Seahawks reverted White to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Analysis: White was elevated for the second straight week ahead of Sunday's win against Arizona. The rookie wideout logged six offensive snaps without getting any targets or touches and also played four snaps on special teams. Both Tory Horton (groin/shin) and Jake Bobo (calf) missed Sunday's contest, and White's chances of getting elevated again this Sunday versus the Rams could depend on the health of those two players.

Elevated for Week 10
White was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Ari Horton of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: White has now been elevated for a second consecutive week, meaning he has one more elevation before he will need to be signed to the active roster to suit up. The rookie seventh-round pick will have a better shot to contribute to the offense and special teams units behind wide receivers Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Rashid Shaheed, and Cody White if Cooper Kupp (hamstring) and Tory Horton (groin/shin) are unable to go.

Back on practice squad
The Seahawks reverted White to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Analysis: Seattle elevated White from the practice squad ahead of Sunday's win over the Commanders. The rookie seventh-round pick logged seven offensive snaps and five snaps on special teams. White didn't see any targets in his first NFL regular-season action, and his likelihood of being elevated again moving forward likely depends upon the health of wideouts Cooper Kupp (hamstring), Jake Bobo (Achilles) and Dareke Young (quadriceps), all of whom missed Sunday's victory.

Heads to practice squad
White signed with the Seahawks' practice squad Wednesday.
Analysis: White was extremely productive at UNLV with 167 catches for 2,524 yards and 19 touchdowns across his final two seasons, but his 4.61 40-yard dash was a glaring weak spot for a 6-foot-1, 184-pound receiver. He struggled in preseason with just three receptions for 40 yards over three games, and he lost out to Dareke Young and Cody White for the final two wideout spots. White now has a chance to develop on the Seahawks' scout team.

Fails to make team
White was waived Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: White was drafted by the Seahawks in the seventh round of the 2025 NFL Draft but won't be on the team's initial 53-man roster. The rookie out of UNLV is likely to stick around on the practice squad if he passes through waivers unclaimed.

Three catches this preseason
White caught one of two targets for six yards in Saturday's 20-7 preseason loss to the Packers.
Analysis: The rookie seventh-round pick has had an uneventful preseason with just three receptions for 40 yards through three games. White has an intriguing prospect profile where he was highly productive at Michigan State and UNLV, but his 4.61 40-yard dash was a letdown. He's on the roster bubble ahead of Week 1.

Makes one catch Thursday
White (undisclosed) caught his lone target for 14 yards in Thursday's 23-23 preseason tie versus the Raiders.
Analysis: A rookie seventh-round pick, White missed practice time during the week with an undisclosed injury, but he returned to action in the fourth quarter of Thursday's exhibition game, catching a short pass from fellow rookie Jalen Milroe. With rookie fifth-round pick Tory Horton on track for a roster spot, White is competing with Dareke Young and Cody White for a depth role in the Seattle offense.

Doesn't practice Saturday
White (undisclosed) did not participate in Saturday's training camp practice, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The type and severity of White's injury isn't clear, but he was held out of Saturday's practice and is in jeopardy of missing more in the coming week. The rookie seventh-rounder is competing for a depth spot on the Seahawks' 53-man roster, so participating in practice is crucial for him to make his case to survive cut-down day. White will aim to be available for Seattle's preseason opener against Las Vegas on Thursday.
