No one in Atlanta Falcons nations expected big things from Roddy White when he come into the league, especially due to the offense the Falcons were running at that time with Michael Vick at quarterback.
However, when Vick was sentenced to prison, White’s career seemed to have taken off.
With Detroit Lions castaway Joey Harrington and Byron Leftwich playing quarterback, White put up the numbers that shocked a lot of people, not because he wasn’t talented but because of the number of issues that were going on in the franchise.
White should have made the Pro Bowl that season, but he ended up going the following season once Matt Ryan was drafted.
