In the one-hour documentary, NFL legends and groundbreakers including Jerry Rice, Doug Williams, Mel Blount and Marquette King pay homage to their place in this distinguished fraternity with first-person stories of the HBCU experience. Each player discusses the impact HBCUs had in not only shaping their football careers, but laying the crucial foundation for what the National Football League has become.
"HBCUs and their alumni have such a significant place within the history of the NFL," said Brian Lockhart, NFL Media Vice President and Senior Coordinating Producer of Original Content.
