Shout out to @espn for playing the Mac Jones is getting drafted before Justin Fields because of racism against black quarterbacks card three days before the draft even happens. Gotta keep the victimization narrative rolling no matter what.
Jameis Winston went number one overall after narrowly avoiding rape charges in college. Mike Vick, Jamarcus Russell, Cam, & Kyler all went number one overall too. The NFL doesn’t care about anything but football ability. Anyone who still argues otherwise is an imbecile.
The four highest paid quarterbacks in NFL history are all black. The idea the NFL is racist against black quarterbacks is a completely broken narrative that is at least two generations old now. Everyone making the argument today should be ridiculed to the high heavens.
Final point, if the NFL as a whole was actually racist against black quarterbacks, you could spot a market inefficiency & profit off other team’s racism, thereby winning more games with lower drafted/lower cost black QBs. You know, like Belichick did with white wide receivers.
