Mike White Falls Flat in Bid for QB2 Job
Buffalo Bills quarterback Mike White had an opportunity to make hay in the race for the No. 2 job on Sunday night, but he fell short in a 38-0 preseason shellacking at the hands of the Chicago Bears. White, who's competing with Mitchell Trubisky to serve as the backup to Josh Allen, started the game and played the entire first half. The 30-year-old didn't look ready for prime time, though, as he finished 4-for-11 for 54 yards and took a pair of sacks. In White's defense, he got little help from an offensive unit laden with backups. Miscues from the O-line, particularly a couple of false starts from reserve left tackle Ryan Van Demark, and dropped passes made life more difficult on the signal-caller than it should have been. Even with that in mind, White wasn't sharp. He lacked touch on his passes and missed open targets on multiple occasions. Trubisky was hardly Allen-esque when he took the field in the third quarter (7-for-13 for 56 yards), but in all likelihood, White lost ground on Sunday.
