Raiders waive ex-Seahawks, Steelers wide receiver

The Las Vegas Raiders released former Seattle Seahawks and Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Cody White on Wednesday, allowing him to re-enter NFL free agency. White, a sixth-year veteran, played sparingly for the Raiders catching eight passes for 112 yards and scoring three touchdowns during his tenure. His career highlights include two touchdowns against the Los Angeles Chargers on September 20 and another one against the New Orleans Saints the following week.

Since then, White has failed to score and hasn't grabbed more than two receptions in a single game this season. Born in Michigan, White began his career with the Pittsburgh Steelers after the 2020 NFL Draft but went undrafted before playing for the Kansas City Chiefs, Denver Broncos, and New York Giants. He earned his most playing time with the Steelers and Seahawks, even winning a Super Bowl ring with the Seahawks in 2025.

The Raiders now face a crucial matchup against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, with the potential to impact the NFL landscape by surprising one of the NFC's top teams at Levi's Stadium.
