Junior Coffey grew up in the 50's and became the first African-American to play in a high school football team in the Texas Panhandle region. He then attended the University of Washington and was a three-time all-conference selection and was tabbed Honorable Mention All-American all three seasons. Coffey was drafted by the Green Bay Packers and played on their championship team of '65. He also played with the Atlanta Falcons 1966-69 and finished his career with the New York Giants in 1971.
