FS Reed Blankenship & CB Cooper Dejean

[TwentyTwo]

If your gonna change the NFL game for College style to get more Black QBs...then also make sure White DBs (Cornerback)get an opportunity too...some still have it ingrained in their thick skulls he's a Safety

Here is an interesting article just ran across

White cornerback, Black QB: did Eagles grab ultimate DEI Super Bowl win?

Observers have jokingly pointed to Cooper DeJean as a diversity hire for the NFL champions. But they have succeeded by challenging outdated ways of thinking

Yes, the Eagles get mucho credit for first recognizing and rescuing Reed Blankenship from the huuuge Caste dungheap of discarded White defensive backs and starting him, to drafting Cooper DeJean long after he should have been drafted. Philly GM Howie Roseman deserves a lot of credit, much as it may crush those who view everything through racial and ethnic blinders.

My second favorite Cooper Dejean highlight of the Super Bowl, after the pick-six, occurred almost at the end of the third quarter with the score 34-0: Patrick Mahomes had just completed a nice 40 yard pass to Xavier Worthy who had made a nice move to get open and pretty much caught the ball in stride. As the holder of the NFL combine 40 yard dash record at 4.21 headed for the end zone who caught him and made the tackle?: none other than the winner of the 2021 Class 2A Iowa State 100 meter championship.

Great point, dejean certainly looked sneaky fast on that play!

Lebron James snubbed Cooper DeJean at a Lakers game a few days before the Super Bowl. Typical James behavior toward Whites.

Cooper DeJean not upset LeBron James slighted him days before Eagles rookie took Super Bowl LIX by storm

James likely knows who DeJean is now

Lebron is a blatant racist as we already know. Blankenship was standing beside DeJean as well.
