:It seems to me like it should be a category and stand-alone list (there are 100+ on the Deadspin's Big Book), but if that's not the consensus, I hope there's at least consensus for keeping a list of black quarterbacks ''somewhere'', perhaps in [[Racial issues faced by black quarterbacks]] or [[Black players in professional American football]], or as a stand-alone list.

:::I started [[List of black quarterbacks]]. I will be adding to it. There are 100+ sourced examples out there, I think each of which already have an article here.

*'''Delete'''. Most articles included, like [[Jacoby Brissett]], have no sources that indicate the person's ethnicity. This opens up a whole host of issues, especially for living people. IMO, sorting by ethnicity is a terrible mess of BLP violations. This category in particular should be deleted per nom.--[[User:Namiba|TM]] 12:05, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
::The sources supporting the addition of those articles to the black quarterback category are listed above and/or in the articles themselves.
