Speaking on ESPN\u2019s The Right Time with Bomani Jones, the duo discussed the 2023 NFL Draft and noted that all the top quarterback prospects picked up by the NFL are black. Foxworth insisted that this has scared the NFL and that they will likely make rule changes to address it.<\/p>\n<h3>Is the NFL Becoming Alarmed by Black Quarterbacks?<\/h3>\n<p>During the conversation, Jones and Foxworth pointed out that the most popular quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/espns-the-undefeated-slams-nfl-as-racist-ignores-that-the-four-highest-paid-quarterbacks-are-black\/\" title=\"ESPN\u2019s \u2018The Undefeated\u2019 Slams NFL As Racist, Ignores That The Four Highest-Paid Quarterbacks Are Black\">highest-paid quarterbacks<\/a>, Lamar Jackson and Jalen Hurts, are all black men. They also noted that the first three quarterbacks drafted in the 2023 NFL Draft were black. Jones agreed with Foxworth that the NFL is probably becoming alarmed by all the black quarterbacks.<\/p>\n<p>However, Foxworth clarified that he isn&#8217;t saying the NFL\u2019s fans are too racist to accept black quarterbacks. Instead, he believes that the NFL thinks its fans are a different type of racist. They know that the stars of this entertainment property are the quarterbacks, and they believe that the stars that sell consistently are tall white dudes. <\/p>\n<h3>What Sort of \u201cRules Change\u201d Are They Expecting?<\/h3>\n<p>Neither Foxworth nor Jones exactly made it clear what sort of \u201crules change\u201d they were expecting. However, they did note that the NFL knows that its \u201csecret sauce\u201d is white viewers and that the NFL will start pushing white kids in sports to look toward becoming a quarterback. <\/p>\n<p>It seems very unlikely that the NFL\u2019s ratings would crash just because all the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/exclusive-nfl-insider-breaks-down-top-quarterbacks-ahead-of-draft-day\/\" title=\"EXCLUSIVE: NFL Insider Breaks Down Top Quarterbacks Ahead Of Draft Day\">top quarterbacks<\/a> are black.
