09/03/2010 - Englewood, CO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Denver Broncos running back LenDale White was placed on injured reserve Friday and will miss the 2010 season with a torn Achilles tendon.
White was hurt during the second quarter of Thursday's 31-24 preseason loss to the Minnesota Vikings. He ran for 53 yards and two scores during exhibition play.
The Denver native was already scheduled to sit out the first four games of the regular season for violating the league's substance-abuse policy.
White was signed by the Broncos on August 4 after he was cut by Seattle in late May. The Seahawks had acquired him from Tennessee this April.
A 2006 second-round draft pick of the Titans, White has rushed for 2,349 yards and 24 touchdowns on 628 carries in 58 career games. He also has caught 42 passes for 204 yards.
