Who was the first African American quarterback in the National Football League during the modern era?
Unfortunately Stephen Michael "Steve" Tensi is not African American. Fritz Pollard, according to most historical records became the first African-American player to throw a pass in professional football. In 1920, while playing for the Akron Pros, Pollard threw and completed four passes. The position of quarterback was an extension of running back in those days, and it could be argued that Pollard played half back or wing back at the time. George Taliafero and Willie Thrower both started at quarterback in the 1953 season, Taliafero for the Baltimore Colts and Thrower for the Chicago Bears. Both men are credited by some accounts as the first Black quarterbacks to start a professional football game. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/573298-color-blind-signal-call-10-black-quarterbacks-who-influenced-the-modern-nfl-era
