Report: Bills' White not opting out of 2020 season
Buffalo Bills cornerback Tre'Davious White did not opt out of the 2020 season before Thursday's 4 p.m. ET deadline, sources told Chris Mortensen of ESPN.
White said Wednesday he was "undecided" about playing in the upcoming campaign and was discussing it with his family.
The 25-year-old has yet to announce his decision. He responded earlier Thursday to fans who had criticized him for considering an opt-out.
Crazy that me choosing my family's wellbeing over a game comes with so called fans attacking and questioning me and saying I'm selfish. No you guys are selfish for thinking that football is bigger than life. Oh by the way my girl's grandfather passed from COVID. U understand now?

Selected 27th overall by Buffalo in 2017, White was voted a first-team All-Pro last season after racking up 58 tackles, two forced fumbles, 17 pass breakups, and a league-high six interceptions.
The Bills picked up the fifth-year option on White's rookie contract this offseason.
