If what Jim Trotter, former journalist for the NFL Network who is now suing the league for discrimination, says is true, he offers one of the greatest windows into what some in the league really think about its Black players.
If what Trotter says is true, he is pulling back the curtain on what is guttural, old school racism behind the scenes in the NFL, the kind of things that Bull Connor used to say while Black kids were trying to desegregate schools in 1950s Alabama. Trotter in his lawsuit recounts some of the most racist language you will hear except, as he alleges, it's coming from NFL owners.
