Is There Discrimination Against Whites in the NFL?
E Mitchell/S Lloyd
Blacks have (on average of course) longer Achilles tendons.
This gives an advantage in running speed and jumping.
Think of the football positions you mentioned, think of who
are the fastest runners in track & field, think of who
mostly makes up the NBA.
Now instead of using race to assume individuals have the
Achilles tendon advantage, perhaps a tape measure would
be more politically correct!
Remember: all generalizations are faulty (which is a generalization).
