I'm an (amateur) genealogist and I've been looking into the roots of the better-known pro quarterbacks.
Things I've learned so far:
- Andrew Luck is part Lithuanian
- Alex Smith is part Serbian
- Carson Palmer is part Swedish
Kirk Cousins is Dutch, Trevor Siemian is Polish, and Mitch Trubisky is Slovak.
If there's any player whose ancestry you'd like to know more about, please let me know.
i don't give a FUCK what their ancestry is.
they are mother fucking AMERICAN playing FOOTBALL. now fuck off.

There is no American ethnic group. To be American, in practice, is to be from someplace else. Even people likely to believe themselves Native Americans will usually have European or African blood also.

You sure luck isn't part Jewish cud that niggas bones are made of ash
>>78217876
Luck could be Jewish appearance-wise. Fleshy lips and dark curly hair. But he's not Jewish. Dad is a Catholic and mom I think is some type of Evangelical.
cool

I'd be hard pressed to believe that even the descendants of colonial settlers, many generations down the line are free from any genetic mutations that would've otherwise not occurred had their ancestors not came here. You're talking a time span of over 200 years potentially. Isn't that relatively significant in regards to ethnicity? What about even 100 years?
>>78217826
AMEN
>>78217923
He looks quarter Jewish. Probably Ashkenazi.
>>78217995
it possibly is somehow significant, but who cares? probably 80%+ of white people in the US are european mutts. i'm pulling that number out of my ass, but i don't at all get the point of trying to pinpoint the ethnicity of NFL quarterbacks
>>78218024
Ethnicity is bound to get diluted over time. It's race that's important.
>>78218078
I'm guessing he's English
>>78217995
lol 200 years. My family arrived in the 1640s. There are people around today, both whites and blacks, who are descendants of Thomas Forrest and Margaret Fox - they arrived here in 1608.

Neat.
I'm literally the first person in the history of my entire bloodline to be born in the Wetern Hemisphere.
Two ends of the spectrum, eh!
What about Sean Lee?
He has a gook last name but not Asian
>>78218082
Aaron Rodgers is actually of Scottish descent. He is the great-great-great-grandson of a man from Ulster, Alexander Rodgers. He has English, Irish, and German heritage also.
>>78217826
This x1000.
>>78218195
Is suppose your dumb ass thinks Robert E Lee is part Korean.
I would like to know the root country of origin for all black players
