NFL fans soon shared their thoughts and reactions to Tre'Davious White's return to Buffalo. Some felt that the Bills were paying him too much.

"Why so much money," one fan said.
"Holy overpay!" another fan commented.
"Trash a** corner. The Bills wasting money even signing him," one fan added.

Others were excited to witness White's second stint with the Bills:

"Familiar face, short-term deal makes sense for both sides," one fan wrote.

"You know what? Good for him, he gets to retire in his home," another fan said.
"Good signing for the Bills!" another fan commented.

White was a first-round pick for the Bills during the 2017 NFL draft. The first few years of his career were great for the cornerback. He quickly established himself as a threat on the field and also led the league in interceptions during the 2019 season. White earned two Pro Bowl honors during his first stint with the Bills.

However, injuries started plaguing his game starting in 2021. White tore his ACL during 2021's Thanksgiving showdown against the Saints, ruling him out for the rest of the season. He missed a good chunk of the team's 2022 campaign rehabilitating from his injury before making a comeback against the Lions in November.

The cornerback tore his achilles tendon during the 2023 campaign and missed out on the team's final 13 games of the season. He signed a one-year deal with the LA Rams after the Bills released him. However, after an underwhelming performance on the field, White was traded to the Ravens.

Tre'Davious White once dished out smack talk for former teammate Josh Allen

Last season, the LA Rams took on the Buffalo Bills at SoFi Stadium in December. Months before the game, Tre'Davious White made an appearance on the "Up and Adams" show.

During this appearance, he shared his feelings about playing against his former team. The two-time Pro Bowl cornerback took this opportunity to throw some light-hearted shade at Bills quarterback Josh Allen.

"I want to win, obviously I want to win for my team. But you know, it's gonna be a lot of things put out there before the games to try to make it bigger than what it is. But ultimately, once the game starts, it's 11 against 11," White said.
"I don't have a circle but I will say like, the people there, the relationships that are built there. This is gonna last a lifetime...the Bills love me so much. I am pretty sure I pick off Josh, they're gonna cheer for me," he added.

Tre'Davious White and the LA Rams won that showdown 44-42. Now, he is returning to play together with Allen after winning four division titles together during his first stint with the Bills.
