(8/11) Former Heisman White to Retire from NFL
Oklahoma Sooner's Notes and Articles
White to Give up Football: Former Heisman Trophy winner Jason White ended his professional career, citing his weak knees. White, who had been competing for third quarterback with the Tennessee Titans, said he has the head and heart to play in the NFL, but not the knees. "It's always been a dream of mine, but certain things won't allow me to chase that dream," White said. "It's kind of out of my hands at this point." White won the Heisman in 2003 and led Oklahoma to back-to back BCS title games. He is Oklahoma's career passing leader with 7,922 yards and in touchdown passes with 81. He joined the Titans in May as an undrafted rookie after an audition with the Kansas City Chiefs did not lead to a contract offer. (NFL.com) White said he informed coach Jeff Fisher of his decision Wednesday night.
