Joe Williams (running back)
Joe Williams (born March 30, 1947) is a former American football running back of the National Football League.〔Epstein, Eddie. ''Dominance: The Best Seasons of Pro Football's Greatest Teams.'' Dulles, VA: Brassey's Inc., 2002. 110. ISBN 1-57488-466-2〕 He was drafted out of Wyoming and earned a Super Bowl ring in his first year in the league as a member of the 1972 Super Bowl VI-winning Dallas Cowboys under coach Tom Landry.〔Perkins, Steve. ''The Dallas Cowboys: Winning the Big One.'' Grosset & Dunlap, 1972. ISBN 0-448-02080-7〕 He also played for the New Orleans Saints and finished with 139 career rushing yards and 175 yards receiving.
==Early years==
As a senior co-captain playing for the University of Wyoming, he was one of the fourteen African American players that were dismissed from the team after threatening to wear black armbands during a game against BYU, to protest the racial policies of the LDS church.〔https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1310&dat=19691018&id=EKtVAAAAIBAJ&sjid=IuEDAAAAIBAJ&pg=6674,4171771〕〔https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=2706&dat=19691031&id=5wxKAAAAIBAJ&sjid=cR4NAAAAIBAJ&pg=2117,3165926〕
At the time of the incident (known as the "Black 14"), the Cowboys were undefeated (4-0) and ranked 12th in the nation. Even though Wyoming beat BYU 40-7 and San Jose State University the next game without the players, it would lose its last four games of 1969 and went 1-9 the next year, which prompted the school to fire head coach Lloyd Eaton.〔https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1129&dat=19820514&id=gdtaAAAAIBAJ&sjid=l20DAAAAIBAJ&pg=7143,3141541〕 The incident also affected the University to successfully recruit African American players for several years.
