“When I was a youngster, all I wanted was to have a chance at playing in the National Football League, so I’m thrilled to be a part of this endeavor. I never imagined that I would be the first African American quarterback selected in the first round. I am aware that was a significant advancement for our culture, Vick said in a statement. “I was always told that I changed the quarterback position, but I also want to give respect to those who paved the way, like Randall Cunningham, Steve McNair, and Donovan McNabb, who were the ones I looked up to as a youngster.
You can trace the development of the Black quarterback back to those who came before us. And now I’m grateful for the dual threat idea, which has improved the game.
