🏈 Jalen Hurts and Patrick Mahomes are chasing a Super Bowl title, but they’ve already made history two weeks ahead of their showdown in Arizona. The two NFL MVP finalists will become the first Black quarterbacks to face one another in a SuperBowl.
Only three Black quarterbacks have ever lifted the Lombardi Trophy. Doug Williams became the first when he led Washington to a Super Bowl XXII victory over the Denver Broncos.
It took 26 years before Russell Wilson became the second with a Seattle Seahawks rout against the Broncos in Super Bowl XLVIII. Mahomes got his first championship with the Chiefs’ Super Bowl LIV win against the 49ers three seasons ago. Now, Mahomes can become the first Black quarterback to win multiple Super Bowls and the 13th QB all-time to pull off the feat.
