Devin White Puts the Glory to God First


The All-Pro used his Superbowl platform to praise His Lord.


By Faith on the Field Staff, December 24, 2022



Devin White plays football for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and was picked by the Buccaneers fifth overall in 2019. He was a second-team AP All-Pro in 2020 when he helped Tampa Bay win the Super Bowl, and made the Pro Bowl last year. 

A Superbowl champion has a significant platform, and when God gave him that platform, one of the first things White did was give credit back to this Lord. He shared his Super Bowl-winning experience with Rob Maaddi. 

“The biggest game I ever played in my life, and I won it. But as you can see I didn't celebrate the victory first; I gave God thanks for being in the situation and helping us win in the situation. Obviously, I just wanted to praise him before I did anything else, and I think that was a great picture. That was like the highlight of winning the Super Bowl was just me showing my gratitude to the man up above for allowing me to even be there to be in a position.”

As White reflected on that moment at the Superbowl, and the life events that followed, he realized that there are highs and lows in life and that events don’t always end with championships and celebrations. 

“Because I mean, it don't always happen like that. But like I say, with everything I do, I put God first. You know whether I win or lose, you know, I lose and I go pray after the game, ‘Thank you for allowing us to do it safe, health and everything.’”  

‘So just one of those moments where I obviously did it and it was kind of like it was captured on film. So I mean it was a blessing.”
