The Eagles linebacker had been with the first unit to begin every training camp practice.

After the Eagles returned, Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio confirmed that Dean had surpassed White on the depth chart. Since White didn't play special teams, he was not on the game-day roster for Weeks 2 and 3.
