Bears put Kevin White on PUP list

The No. 1 wide receiver option the Chicago Bears had coming into training camp actually won't be at training camp.

Kevin White, the Bears' first-round pick, suffered a shin injury during his offseason workouts that will put him on the phyiscally-unable-to-perform (PUP) list, according to the Chicago Sun-Times.

Bears G.M. Ryan Pace confirmed on Wednesday that the team will take it easy with White in the near future, considering how much time still remains between now and the start of the regular season in September.

Pace also noted that White wasn't particularly pleased by the decision.

"He's fired up," he said, via the Sun-Times. "We kind of have to put handcuffs on him."

Pace said the team will work on building up White's cardiovascular strength while he's away from the field this summer. 

White was selected No. 7 overall after Chicago traded Brandon Marshall to the Jets in the offseason.
