Dallas Cowboys Hall of Famer Randy White endorsed Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in the high-stakes Texas U.S. Senate race.
In his endorsement, White publicly warned voters against supporting Paxton’s Democratic opponent, Texas State Representative James Talarico, stating that Talarico “can’t be trusted”. White emphasized conservative cultural and social priorities as the core driver for his support, pointing specifically to concerns surrounding transgender participation in girls’ sports and access to female-designated public spaces like locker rooms and bathrooms.
The high-profile endorsement comes as the Texas Senate contest enters its final, competitive stretch heading toward November. Paxton’s campaign has sought to leverage prominent Texas figures and cultural issues to shore up base turnout against Talarico, who has been mounting an unusually aggressive statewide challenge in the reliably red state.
