The Reason For Releasing Lendale White

The recent release Seattle Seahawks runningback Lendale White was nothing short of surprising. The newly acquired runningback was in fantastic shape, still had his youth, but what went wrong?
John Schneider has recently commented that White "wasn't ready to be a Seahawk." So one would have to suspect that White had a bad attitude, wasn't performing, or was just simply being outplayed by hungrier RB's such as Justin Forsett, or Julius Jones.
Another reason could be that Lendale White had a possible four game suspension coming. Why do you think White came at such a cheap price, it certainly makes a little more since. The Tennessee Titans knew this, just as I suspect Carroll and Schneider did as well.
