Where’s Roddy White?

The Falcons all-time leading receiver did not catch a pass in the first half against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.

The Falcons trailed 28-17 at haltime.

White had his streak of 130 consecutive regular-season games with at least one catch snapped against the New York Giants last week.

White did help set up the Falcons first touchdown by drawing a defensive holding penalty on Dallas cornerback Morris Claiborne. Running back Devonta Freeman scored on a 3-yard touchdown run on the subsequent play.

In the second quarter, White caught a pass for a 17-yard gain, but right tackle Ryan Schraeder was penalized for going downfield too soon. The play was nullified.

White had four catches for 84 yards in the season-opener victory over the Eagles.

White only had one target against the Giants and didn’t catch a pass.

Before last week, the last time White played in a game and didn’t catch a pass was against the Washington Redskins on Dec. 3, 2006.
