  • Watch this excerpt from “The Minister of Defense” where Brett Favre reflects on a play where Reggie White tackled him and hurt his left arm, sending him into a particularly difficult time in his life.
    “The Minister of Defense” premieres December 13, 2023 at 9 PM ET on ESPN.
    “The Minister of Defense” examines the complex and sometimes controversial life of Reggie White, one of the greatest and most faith-driven players in NFL history. Told in part through never-before-seen footage from a 2004 interview filmed two months before his death, the film chronicles both White’s incredible dominance as one of the best defensive players ever and his spiritual journey as an ordained evangelical minister who questioned his blind faith toward the end of his life. Along with interviews with teammates from both the Philadelphia Eagles and Green Bay Packers, the film features Reggie’s son Jeremy who embarks on a journey to understand his father’s life, which ended tragically short at the age of 43. “The Minister of Defense” is a portrait of a man who constantly strived to “do right” but found that sometimes there is no easy answer as to what “right” means.

      I remember him in the superbowl against the new england patriots in 1997, he made Patriots guard Max Lane look like a little boy, he literally would just toss him to the ground, go right through him like thin air, push him aside with one arm, Max Lane was 6'5" and weighed 315 lbs,,, Reggie White definitely one of the strongest if not the strongest football player ever to play in the NFL

    But after this seeing this program I’m looking sideways at ESPN. This was a bunch of people who disagreed with Reggie’s faith now trying to put words in Reggie’s mouth since he’s not here to correct them. They make the implication that he renounced his Christian stance on social issues when he never said that at all.
    He changed his approach not his stance.

    If it wasn't on purpose, and he was reacting that quickly to the flow of the play - it's even more athletic.
