Best Of Social Media: James White Announces His Retirement

After eight seasons in the NFL, New England Patriots running back James White announced his retirement on Thursday.

Last season, White sustained a serious hip injury in week three that ultimately forced him to call it a career.

White released a lengthy statement on social media thanking his teammates, family, and fans.

A vital contributor on offense during the second half of the Patriots dynasty, White earned three Super Bowl rings during his career, but his most memorable performance came during the Super Bowl LI comeback against the Atlanta Falcons.
