Reggie White: The Minister Of Defense

Описание: Hall of Fame defensive end Reggie White wasn’t just a superstar — he was a catalyst for player freedom. Raised by a union-organizing father and a faithful mother, White learned early to fight for dignity. In the early 1990s he dominated with the Philadelphia Eagles, but the league’s reserve clause kept players under team control long after contracts expired. When free agency finally arrived, a bidding war erupted that changed sports forever. White shocked everyone by following what he called divine guidance and leaving Philadelphia for Green Bay. In 1993 he signed a four-year, $17 million deal with the Packers — the largest defensive contract in NFL history. His decision redefined player power, brought a Super Bowl to Green Bay, and opened the door to modern free agency. This video explores how one man’s faith and defiance reshaped football’s balance of power.
