James White Pays Tribute to His Father on His Son’s First Birthday

SJ - September 22, 2020

Patriots running back James White posted a touching tribute on Instagram to his father Tyrone, who died on Sunday in a car accident. The post was for his son Xzavier's first birthday.

Part of what White had to say was that he hoped he could be as good of a father to his son as his father was to him:

"Happy 1st birthday Xzavier! I hope I can be as good of a father to you as my father was to my brother and I!"

It's obviously a tough time for the White family. Hopefully his son can help him get through this.
