4.9/5 (12525 ratings)

America's African-American quarterbacks found themselves trapped on football's sidelines, unable to play the game they loved unless they moved to wide receiver—or Canada.

Filled with personal anecdotes and firsthand recollections, the book includes testimony from NFL greats such as Warren Moon, Doug Williams, Vince Evans, James Harris, Martin Briscoe, Donovan McNabb, Steve McNair, Daunte Culpepper, and Michael Vick.William C. Rhoden has been a reporter and sports columnist for The New York Times since 1983. Prior to that, he worked at The Baltimore Sun and Ebony magazine.
