Weather he was pulled for a few snaps, or he was down with a tweaked knee doesn't matter. The fact of the matter is that he needed to make a few adjustments considering how they were attacking the left side of the field with slants and inside crossing routes repeatedly.
Last week we saw Corey white zoom in and pick off a slant route which could/should have resulted in a pick six. he learned a great lesson there. Yes, he made a huge mistake, but he certainly learned from it. Remember folks, we learn from failure- not success.
Without Julio jones, the falcons still have a great core of receivers, not to mention Gonzalez. I think Corey white did a fantastic job taking in the adjustments and playing hard nosed afterwards.
He laid a great hit on Steven Jackson, along with Harper. So with that said, I strongly agree that Corey white is more of a physical corner and he thrives in physically demanding situations. He's put out a lot of big hits this season in his limited role- the first thing that caught by eye about White was his ability to hit like a linebacker on-the-go.

I didn't realize he shut it down after the half. Nice job Corey!
Not to mention fumble recovery.
Right place - right time.

As to pressure, taking away the short passing game forced Ryan to hold the ball longer giving the DL time to get to the QB.

One last note, White is young and learning. Greer is nearing the end of his career. Let's not forget that Greer has looked as bad or worse that CW's first half not too many games back.

CW will improve.
