Houston, we have a... new quarterback prospect?

NFL doesn't give Black QBs the same opportunities
In football, there is no position more coveted than that of the starting quarterback. The quarterback is the leader, the facilitator, the field general for an offense.

Tyrod Taylor Has Been Letting People Mispronounce His Name This Whole Time
