A man who drew attention for saying Black women are not coachable, and that this is why wealthy Black athletes marry white women, is reportedly not a Miami Dolphins player at all.
According to Black Sports Online, a man named Ricardo has been presenting himself online as a Dolphins player since 2014. The outlet reports he took part in a regional NFL combine session at the Dolphins training facility, even though it found no record that he played college football or attended college. Black Sports Online says he turned that single day into years of posing as an NFL player.
The report also says photos Ricardo posted were heavily filtered, including one from April 2014 that appeared to show him signing a Dolphins contract. According to the outlet, photos of him in a uniform either do not show a jersey number or are edited so that the number cannot be seen. Black Sports Online reports that NFL player Lynden Trail referred to him as a colleague in a Facebook post, apparently unaware of the claims.
The report further alleges that Ricardo visited a car dealership, test drove expensive cars, and then posted photos on Instagram as if the cars belonged to him. Black Sports Online also reports that he changed his Instagram name after his comments drew attention, though screenshots had already been saved.
The accusations come from Black Sports Online’s reporting, and we have not seen a public response from Ricardo.
