Roddy White has no issues with text message from Dan Quinn

Veteran wide receiver Roddy White, who was released by the Atlanta Falcons Thursday after 11 seasons, said he had no issue with coach Dan Quinn communicating with him via text message regarding the news.

White, who is out of the country, explained how it all transpired.

"My agent called me," White said in a text message to ESPN.com of how he found out about his release. "[Quinn] called me but I didn't answer because I was out of the country."

White didn't lash out about the team's decision to release him with two years remaining on his contract.
