“Because I kinda get to do all the same stuff, but there’s no real pressure. There’s no one like about to give me a score for something, or there’s some situation where I’m really nervous or anxious, which is great,” White shared. “I understand for someone like Tom Brady or anyone else, where I don’t know, what you do go play a pickup game at the local YMCA? Like, what do you do? At least for snowboarding skateboarding, surfing, you can still go enjoy that sport casually. So, I think I’m gonna enjoy this new role,” said White.

Enjoying his time with his girlfriend, he recently posted an Instagram photo of him surfing.
