If you think you don't have a chance at being a RB or CB try playing safety. Playing in the NFL is such a lofty dream, unless you run a 4.3 or 4.4 40-yard dash at those positions, forget it. Blacks are quicker than whites, not in every case but if you look at the numbers, they don't lie. Also, if you want to play in the backfield, if you are bigger try for fullback.

yeah their are white players at rb and cb and past ones too
nick goings john riggins [ who did play rb] and red grange [one of the best ever to play] even though it was in the 30s but their is dick the night train lane who also played cornerback for the rams in the 50s and paul kruase is a safety who holds the record for the most ints

Like Nort said African Americans put way more effort into sports than other races thats why not so many blacks are doctors and lawyers. Don't worryabout race though because if you are the best player and can prove it you will get play over anyone else.
Nick Goings is not white.

If you can run thru or around a defense, they don't care if you are pink. Many black players put more into sports as they grow and the results speak for themselves.
