What do you guys do? Is it necessary to take it out? Any tips would be awesome!

Hey! 
That white thing you see in chicken tenderloins is a tendon. Some people remove it because it can be a bit tough and chewy. 
If you want a smoother texture, you can pull it out, but it's not necessary for safety or taste. It's totally up to your preference!

Yep, I’d take it out! That little white bit is a tendon, and removing it makes the chicken way more tender and easier to eat!
