From early pioneers like Fritz Pollard to groundbreaking modern standouts like Marlin Briscoe and James Shack Harris, Black quarterbacks had to be twice as good as their white counterparts to get playing timeand even then, many never got that chance. That didnt begin to change in earnest until the 1990s and the 2000s, when racist notions about what Black quarterbacks supposedly couldnt do began to fade, paving the way for todays stars like Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson.Drawing on deep historical research and exclusive interviews with Black quarterbacks and players, coaches, and talent evaluators who have worked alongside them, Rocket Men is a celebration of the athletes and activists who transformed the game.
