BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — According to a report from ESPN's Adam Schefter, former Buffalo Bills cornerback Tre'Davious White intends to sign a one-year deal with the Los Angeles Rams.

Schefter reports that the deal is for $8.5 million with a max value of up to $10 million.

The Bills announced plans earlier this month to release the veteran cornerback. A move that will save the team $10.2 million in salary cap space.

"Emotional right? Because you can't believe it's what we are discussing. You know eventually, it's going to come because of the lifespan of an NFL player. But it came way too early in my mind, right? And I'm sure in his mind as well. It's to me tragic in some ways because of the injuries. Had not the injuries occurred, who knows where his time in Buffalo would've taken him and us. I think he's one of the best defensive backs to ever play in Buffalo. I really believe that. He's all class all the time. And he works his tail off. And he's one of the best human beings I know. From what he came from and how he's not only lifted himself up but lifted his family up and the way he's lifted our team up over the years it's just to me a very unfortunate situation with the injuries. Sorry, it's sad to see him go."
