James White on his winning touchdown in Super Bowl LI: ‘Nobody cares about that anymore.’
New England Patriots running back James White only scored two rushing touchdowns during the entirety of the team’s 2016-2017 season, but they couldn’t have come at a better time: Super Bowl LI.
The first was a one-yard run that led to Danny Amendola’s game-tying two-point conversion during the fourth quarter, while the second was the championship-winning touchdown in overtime.
When asked how scoring the winning TD affected his offseason, White told reporters, “I traveled a bunch, but that’s about it. I mean, just trying to put that in the past now. It’s a new season. Nobody cares about that anymore, so just got to get focused on this year.”
