Duh. This has been going on for years now.

There's a stereotype that crackers can't play receiver, running back, or DB.

However, if you look around the league, and at college, I think that stereotype...at least for receivers...is eroding. There are a ton of white receivers in college, and a lot more than normal at the NFL level.

Or maybe there aren't but the ones that are there are shining more?

Either way, I think people are beginning to see that stereotype as bullshit.
