The Dallas Cowboys selected Danny White from Arizona State in the third round (53rd overall) of the 1974 NFL Draft, but were mainly interested in him as a punter, so he chose to sign with the World Football League’s Memphis Southmen. In 1976, he signed with the Cowboys after the World Football League folded. Through 1979, White was the Cowboys’ punter and the backup to Roger Staubach. After Staubach’s retirement following the end of that season, White became the Cowboys’ starting quarterback.
