Good luck trying to block Keion White in a one-on-one situation.
In fact, the New England Patriots standout defender doesn’t believe there’s a single offensive guard in the NFL capable of blocking him one-on-one.
It’s hard to argue with that point after seeing him and the rest of the Patriots’ defensive front run roughshod over the Chicago Bears on Sunday. White finished the game with four tackles, one pass deflection, one sack, two tackles for a loss and two quarterback hits.
“I don’t think there’s a guard in the league who can block me 1-on-1,” White said, via Patriots.com’s Evan Lazar.

It’s good to see White speak with such confidence after the Patriots’ 19-3 victory over the Bears. The defensive unit came away with nine sacks and 13 quarterback hits on Caleb Williams in Sunday’s matchup.
There used to be a swagger to New England’s defense, but that was lost due to the recent struggles the team has dealt with this season with players exiting due to injuries, being traded or other circumstances.
White has perennial Pro Bowl talent as a defensive player. The Patriots are hopeful he realizes that potential sooner rather than later to help get the team back on track.
