What Happened To EVERY White Cornerback In NFL History? 

People are still talking about Dejean moving to safety even with his almost 99th percentile relative athletic score. It's just crazy

One of the hardest, technically sound stud cornerbacks & future DBs coaching legends was Dick LeBeau - who taught so many corners/safeties like Rod Woodson, Carnell Lake, Ryan Grant, Ike Taylor, and Troy Polamalu - all greats for the Steelers

It's like the black quarterback thing in the past. White guys coming up have become more athletic which is required to be a cornerback.

DeJean tape is almost exclusively Cover 3 zone, so that IMO is the biggest reason why he's mocked at Safety. If he was playing press man, or even off-ball, his whole college career he'd be MUCH more likely (if not guaranteed) to be drafted at CB. But even still, I think he'll play corner in the slot.

Seahorn got hurt on special teams kick return and was never the same

Sehorn covering Randy Moss says it all.

New subscriber, love this video keep it up

Its always a good day when krich posts🏆👑

riley moss was hurt most of the year with denver, but balled out whenever he was on the field

You forgot Tom Cruise in the movie All the right moves

Krich never disappoints

For the sake of clarity, until the mid 60's, the vast majority of the players in the NFL were white. I'm certain there were many white cornerbacks in the league during that time.

Former DB here, all is takes is one play to ruin your whole day! You can have a perfect day and one decent catch at the right moment of he game can fuck you up. Worse yet, your to blame if that happens. Everyone who's played that position (Corner or safety) got burned badly at least once, from Pop Warner to Deion Sanders and Rondae Barber. It really is the hardest position to play outside of QB. Race isnt even a factor like that, there's some white guys that can turn on the nitro with Wideouts.

Actually covering or shadowing players in USFB and AssocFB are very similar. Different but similar. There are plenty of white defenders in AssocFB. Maybe of USFB allowed tackles by sliding into legs, or kicking out the legs, white guys can be more successful in USFB as a CB

I was really fast, one of the fastest on my team every year in rec league as a kid but they put me at Free Safety and Full Back.

You forgot about Terry Schmidt #44. Played for the Chicago Bears at Corner in early to mid 80s.

This is so strange though I’ve wondered this for awhile

I was by far the fastest white kid on my team as a kid. That being said, my coach laughed in my face when id talk about switching sides to try and cover guys like me😅

Discrimination against white guys at DB positions in college football recruiting process is real, the NFL non existence of white corners is just a consequence! The only white guys that got recruited from a Power 5 team and received starting roles (Riley Moss and Cooper Dejean, two local guys from Iowa, the college that recruited them) turned out to be elite cornerbacks and got drafted by the NFL. Also, the last white corner who got fairly recruited out of high school (Ethan Bonner from Stanford, Texas native) had some playing time for the Dolphins last season. This year another white corner might have some chances: Jayden Price from FCS powerhouse North Dakota State (Kansas native), played for 5 years and excelled as a returner; was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Falcons and maybe will play as a specialist on Sundays. The fact is that white guys can play corner and can excel at the position: they're proving this anytime they're given the chance; but discrimination is real and college coaches see color very well when we're talking about defensive backs (or running backs).

I need to rewatch Sehorn HLs to remember how good or not good he was? All I remember is he gave up the first TD to the Ravens in the SB. He let the receiver get behind him.

You forgot to list Scott Case. a white cornerback who led the league and interceptions with 10 for the Atlanta Falcons in 1988.

Sehorn was a beast.

I hope Dejean actually makes it I'm a huge fan of breaking the trend🔥🔥 Spoiler alert I'm black🤣

What about Roger Wehrli & Pat Fischer?

Kevin Kaesviharn’s dad was Thai

Is Sehorn saying he doesn't regret rubbing the bald head of a trainer?

Speaking of white CBs i remember when the Patriots had some injuries in the secondary and Bill Belichick put Julian Edelman at CB for a few games

I played a little corner in high school, some WR, but I was always viewed as a safety. I was never ever going to make the NFL at any position, but I did play D2 as a safety for a couple years. Even as a safety, it is assumed that as a white dude you’re too slow and just can’t hold the weight to be a LB, so you’re just a safety by default. There’s definitely a bias, but there’s a lot of factors other than that.

Kevin Kaesivharn is half Thai I believe

I didn't know Edleman played on both sides🤯🔥

Bros training to be the first white pro bowl cornerback 💀

Sehorn was going to be great, then the injury happened...

If you look at every defensive position on the field say since 2000 there have been white players of Pro Bowl to HOF caliber at every position except corner. The idea that you can find white players at that level of performance but not have even one crappy bottom of the roster white corner is ridiculous. It's the same situation that existed with the lack of black QB's. It wasn't that there were no black starters like a Starr or Staubach but that there were no black backups. Seriously there wasn't one black dude somewhere to be 3rd string? Of course there was but the NFL wasn't interested just like they're not interested now (and also not especially interested in white RB's either). It's a shameful state of affairs for a league that is supposedly so socially conscious, yet they will continue to get away with it until the media starts to ask questions.(don't hold your breath)

When was Edelman a DB? I dont remember this.

He forgot to mention Din Shula

Dick LeBeau? Roger Wehrli? No?

If this is supposed to about white Cornerbacks in NFL history you have a couple glaring omissions. Pat Fischer, and Dick LeBeau. Pat Fischer was one of the nastiest hitmen in the league. Dick LeBeau played 14 seasons for the Lions and made 3 pro Bowls then was a legend as a Defensive Coordinator in the NFL.

Sehorn was a daring and hardcore cover corner... at 6'3 205 with legit 4.4 speed he wasnt afraid to line up over anytbody INCLUDING Randy Moss. That guy was different... and not because he was a white player at a position demanding of speed which is unteachable. His play style was different ever since he was an underrated DB coming our of USC

What about Reed Blankenship? He is a baller.

BTW you don't honestly think these are all the white corners in NFL history do you? Please check out the 70's. There were more than I can remember but Roger Wehrli (HOF) Dick LeBeau (HOF) Bobby Bryant Pat Fisher etc. etc.

I honestly hope my Colts draft him

You are forgetting someone Krich! The great Damon Pieri played like two snaps at the cornerback position in the NFL. Pieri > Sehorn and Dejean

Anyone who plays madden remembers Troy apke as a budget beast. Low overall rating but tall and fast.

Sehorn was a good CB!

i feel like da right system he can be a elite look at christian McCaffrey one of the best in the league

Quick ass video.

You are wearing a Saints hat in the video, so I am guessing you are from Louisiana. If so you should know how to pronounce DeJean properly. LOL It is a common name in Louisiana (because of our deep French heritage) so we use the French pronunciation for those of you that want to know.

Bro white DBs Are a rare 😅

Prejudice... Prejudice is the word you're thinking of. Yes these guys have been prejudged. But not a person is stopping them from playing football and especially corner because they are "white"... Seahorn actually shows if someone has the talent... They'll get to play. And Cooper simply can't mirror hyper athletes... It's the same reason people pushed somebody like Antrell Rolle (same physical profile) to S early in his career

Cough brother

Nolan Cromwell. Played corner for the Rams. I'm sure he was white.

Dont rest all your hopes on one guy

I'm pretty sure Jason Sehorn is dead

In high school I was the fastest on my team and of course I was a fullback and linebacker. And led the team in rushing and rushing TD’s. I was 6’0 and 220 and I could run a high 4.5. Fast forward to college (D2) was recruited for fullback/running back and bam converted to linebacker.

I think copper dejean will be legit

Because you really have to play, something you know who isn't really with.

4:45 Script?

🦅🦅🦅🦅

CB is the hardest position to play outside of QB. That's why historically, they get paid big money.

Akpe madden goat

🗣🗣 Milk! Milk!

Is Kool aid black?

lol 15 minute video for all the white db’s ….. 😅😅😅

No offense lol your house back ground looks incredibly fake

Prolly the dumbest title ever lol I never looked at the defense and be like look all the black CB’s lol where the white ones ? It’s mf football PLAY BALL !

White cornerback = Safety! 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲 😅😅😅😅

They all got their ankles broken and their hip rotation is non existent. You can’t be stiff in the lower half and cooper will be moved to safety in NFL be real.

He got a black last name dejean

This is what i say about black QBs! It's to cerebral for them! That's why only one black QB has ever won the Superbowl!! And he didn't have to do anything except hand the ball to Riggens!!😂

DeJean is the Pats future Nickel Corner/Free Range (Chung) Safety/Slot receiver/Scat back/Punt Returner😏😮‍💨 He is PERFECT for Foxboro💯 #WhiteBoySwag😮‍💨💯

Julian Edelman Greatest Slot WR EVER Greatest Playoff & Superbowl WR EVER One of the highest passer ratings in NFL history🤣😮‍💨💯 And a underrated Corner Jules is HIM🐿😮‍💨💯 #WhiteBoySwag😮‍💨 #CantonBound💯
