Following a reception in the second quarter of the team’s 28-13 loss to the New Orleans Saints in Sunday’s Week Three matchup at Gillette Stadium, New England Patriots running back James White appeared to land hard along the sideline. Immediately upon hitting the ground, White was seen grabbing his upper leg as he remained down on the field.
White was carted off the field, as players from both teams came over to him, showing their support for the three-time Super Bowl champion. Shortly thereafter, the Patriots announced that White would not return to the game, the result of a hip injury.
