So, the other day I was just chillin’, listening to the radio, and they started talking about football. You know, the usual stuff. But then, something caught my ear – they were talking about how you hardly ever see white cornerbacks in the NFL. It got me thinking, “Yeah, that’s true, why is that?”
So I started digging around a bit, you know, just poking around on the internet, seeing what people were saying. And it turns out, it’s a real thing. It’s super rare to see a white guy playing cornerback in the pros.
Started My Little Research
I mean, I watched a video, and the guy was talking about this. He was saying the same thing – white cornerbacks are like unicorns, almost mythical creatures in the NFL. And he’s right, I can count the number of white cornerbacks on one hand. So I’m like, okay, let’s see what’s up with this.
First, I made a list of all the NFL teams. Then, I went through their rosters, checking out each player. It was a bit of a grind, but hey, I was curious. Most of the cornerbacks? Black guys. Like, it’s not even close. But I did spot a few white dudes playing that position. Not many, but they’re there. Then I started saving all data I got and put them into a sheet.
Here’s What I Found
- Most teams? No white cornerbacks.
- A few teams? One white cornerback.
- And this one team? They had two! That was surprising.
So after all that, I made this spreadsheet, listing all the teams and their cornerbacks. I highlighted the white players, just to make it clear. It’s a pretty interesting picture, if you ask me. Shows you how skewed things are. It made me see that this isn’t just some random thing. There’s definitely something going on here, you know? It’s not just a coincidence. After all that I just feel it’s really interesting, I mean, who would’ve thought, right? Just shows you, sometimes you gotta look a little closer at things you take for granted.
Anyway, that’s my little adventure into the world of NFL cornerbacks. Hope you found it as interesting as I did. I shared my sheet online, thought maybe someone else would be interested, I mean, if you’re curious, it’s out there. It was a fun little project. Maybe I’ll do another one sometime, who knows.
