BOSTON — Patriots running back James White announced his retirement from football Thursday with a statement on social media.
White, 30, retires after suffering a hip subluxation last September that required surgery and kept him bedridden for more than a month during recovery. He re-signed on a 2-year deal last spring, and started training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list, but never progressed to full practice participation.
White played his entire eight-year career with the Patriots, rushing for 1,278 yards and 11 touchdowns while catching 381 passes for 3,278 yards and 25 touchdown in regular-season games. He won three Super Bowls and was named to the franchise’s 2010s All-Decade team.
