Known as "mad dog" by his fans, the 6-ft. 4-in., 250-lb. defensive end Dwight White was an instrumental, if often unsung, contributor to the "Steel Curtain" defense throughout his nine-year career, taking the Pittsburgh Steelers to four Super Bowl victories and appearing in two Pro Bowls. A fiercely dedicated athlete, White proved his mettle in 1975 when he emerged from a serious bout of pneumonia to help his team defeat the Minnesota Vikings in Super Bowl IX.
