The New England Patriots’ James White put on a show in the Super Bowl. He and the Green Bay Packers’ Ty Montgomery have much in common, including each having his NFL breakout moment in the season just ended.
One major coincidence they share is a switching of positions or roles. White was a running back in college, but has steadily evolved into being primarily a receiving threat with New England. Montgomery was a wide receiver in college and the NFL, until coach Mike McCarthy declared him to be a running back in mid-December. Big Mike recently reiterated he’ll stay at that position in 2017.
