TAMPA (SNN-TV) – The NFL announced that Buccaneers linebacker Devin White was named NFC Defensive Player of the Week for Week 10.
White led Tampa Bay with nine tackles, three quarterback hits, 2 sacks and one forced fumble in the team’s 21-16 win over the Seattle Seahawks in Munich, Germany. He recorded the sixth multi-sack performance of his career and was the only NFC player with multiple sacks and a forced fumble in Week 10. His three quarterback hits were the most by any NFC linebacker.
Through the first 10 weeks of the NFL season, White is the only player with 75-or-more tackles and 5-or-more sacks. White’s performance on Sunday was also commendable, just days after his father’s death last Thursday.
