2022 Fantasy Outlook
A hip injury that eventually required season-ending surgery all but wiped out White's 2021
campaign, and after beginning this year's training camp on the PUP list, the 30-year-old announced his retirement from the NFL in August. Read Past Outlooks

Announces retirement
White has announced his retirement from the NFL, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
The 30-year-old, whom the Patriots took in the fourth round of the 2014 NFL Draft, had been working his way back from a significant hip injury this summer, but he's now decided to end his playing career. Through much of his tenure with the franchise, White was a reliable change-of-pace back, and now that he's no longer in New England's backfield mix, players such as Pierre Strong and Ty Montgomery could see added opportunities to contribute as pass-catching backs this coming season.

2014
White's numbers in 2020 were a microcosm of the decline felt by the Patriots offense without Tom Brady at the helm. The passing-down back failed to reach 500 scrimmage yards for the first time since 2015, though he did look better down the stretch, catching 11 of 14 targets for 106 yards and his only receiving touchdown of the season the final three games, perhaps creating some hope he can rebound in 2021 if he meshes well with first-round pick Mac Jones at quarterback. It's plausible that the rookie signal-caller could look to pass more often than last year's starter, Cam Newton, while needing a security blanket when things break down, but even that might not work in White's favor with New England having revamped its tight end group in the offseason by signing Hunter Henry and Jonnu Smith. With Damien Harris in line to handle the bulk of the early down snaps and Henry and Smith looking for targets underneath, there may not be much of the pie left on offense for White.
