as of now there are no african-american kickers in the NFL. however there is at least one punter that i know of by the name of Rodney Williams. he played for the seahawks at one point but i think he's in free agency now. justin medlock is gonna be a rookie this season coming out of UCLA. look for him to do big things in the NFL, at least as far as kickers go anyways.

Honestly their hasn't been any real great African American kickers, Its not that they are too good for the position or they dont want to play it, i just think that the right one hasn't come along yet. I think eventually you will see one once one with the ability to go to the next level emerges.

It has nothing to do with there abilitys of being black or white. It just happens to be they are only white, and there are some black kickers in college. Why are there so few whites in b-ball. Its just like that.

this question has a VERY easy answer! black people are fast. u cant coach speed. and speed kills in the NFL. why have a fast kicker when u can have a fast WR,RB,CB or even a QB

Well some people would say that african-americans have more athletic potential then white people have. I dont totally agree with this but its possible.

They cannot show off as much as a kicker. Not enough field time.

Hello??? Can we please still have some white guys playing football? Besides, many kickers are ethnic people if that makes any sense. :)
Go Giants!!!!
No offense to anyone, just trying to be lighthearted.
