The NFL likes to say its progressive, but owners are anything but, as the league is down to one Black coach after the Texans fired David Culley. nrarmour's latest column for usatodaysports:
Yes, you read that right. One. In a league where more than two-thirds of the players are Black.
Oh, they’ll let Black and brown people work for them. But run their precious franchises, either on the field or in the front office? What’s next? Suggesting they put a person of color up for membership at their country club? Adding a woman to the foursome for their weekly golf outing? Culley, a highly respected offensive assistant, waited decades for an opportunity to be a head coach. When he finally got his chance, the Texans gave him the equivalent of a house on the verge of being condemned. The Texans had already run off DeAndre Hopkins and J.J. Watt, two of their best players, and franchise quarterback Deshaun Watson was demanding to be traded.
Yet Culley still managed to coax the Texans to a 4-13 record that included wins over the Tennessee Titans, the AFC’s No. 1 seed, and the Los Angeles Chargers. And for that, Culley was fired.
