The Kenny Washington

Since today is the 47th SuperBowl Sunday I decided to do a mini bio on the first African-American to play football!


Kenny S. Washington "Kingfish" was born on August 31st, 1918 and died on June 24th, 1971.During his time as a football player he was a Running Back for the Los Angeles Rams. After he retired from football he became a police officer to help contribute to his community. Thanks to him we have more African-Americans playing football!



          To Kenny Washington We Salute You
Sincerely,
Bryson C.
