James White’s price for the Patriots has never been more evident than Sunday night’s, when he remained naturally inactive in New England’s loss to the Seattle Seahawks in the second week due to the tragic death of his father, Tyrone, in a car accident.
The Patriots’ media held dinner on Seattle’s Cover-3 defensive, but Rex Burkhead put in only four receptions for 47 yards in Week 2.
White’s respect for the Patriots and the NFL has also been evident since news of White’s defeat on Sunday night broke the runner’s condolences from afar.
Patriots cornerer Jason McCourty congratulated his teammate and fellow captain at a conference call Tuesday afternoon when he shared a funny anecdote about when the two became teammates.
“I spoke to (offensive coordinator Josh) McDaniels and wondered why you never saw James scream at the offensive aspect of the ball,” McCourty said. to him on the first day of education camp and during the time you arrive at the Super Bowl, that same note you gave him, he is and is executed in the field. ‘And I think it’s just a tribute to consistency you have as a person.
There’s a lot of screaming at Gillette Stadium, and the fact that White is never a receiver is revealing.
“I think it’s just a tribute to the consistency you have as a person, the way you connect with the rest of the corridor and the rest of the offense,” McCourty said. “He’s a guy who’s a captain. He’s a leader here on our football team, and he’s a guy we’re for leadership, to advise us on everything we’ve been through, so I feel bad for him, and I know a lot of guys in his locker room feel the same way. And we will do our best for him and we will be there for him through this defeat. “
