of course his production, personality and tenure on this team are bigger factors for his popularity but imo, his being white and playing a position of skill plays into his popularity amongst the mostly white skins home crowd.

Portis is (was) exactly the same way back when he was playing well and I think they both were about the same in popularity. I loved Southeast Jerome and the rest, but man, bringing race into it is a huge stretch.

Just like Matty said, he has a hilarious personality and is a great TE. I don't care if he was purple.
