Bills' Team Captain Exits Thursday Night Football Game Due to Pectoral Injury

What Happened

Buffalo Bills team captain Tre'Davious White left Thursday Night Football's game against the New York Jets in the fourth quarter with a pectoral injury. White was injured while tackling Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson and immediately grabbed his chest. He was helped off the field by trainers and did not return to the game.

The Injury

The exact nature of White's injury is not yet known, but pectoral injuries can range in severity from minor strains to complete tears. A complete pectoral tear would likely require surgery and could sideline White for the remainder of the season.

White's Importance to the Bills

White is a key member of the Bills' defense, serving as their starting cornerback and team captain. He is one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL and his absence would be a major blow to the Bills' defense.

What's Next

The Bills will likely provide an update on White's injury on Friday. In the meantime, the team will need to find a replacement for White in the starting lineup. Rookie cornerback Christian Benford is the most likely candidate to start in White's place.
