History Of Black Quarterbacks In The Nfl, Andrew J. Howard

Student Publications

I will look to analyze the cause to this unbalance and determine whether or not the historical stereotypes labeled on black men and faulty media coverage has factored into the decisions of owners, coaches, and scouts regarding the quarterback position.
