Jim Trotter has settled his retaliation lawsuit against the NFL, which stemmed from his allegations of racial discrimination after being dismissed from his reporting role. As part of the settlement, the NFL will donate to Trotter's newly established Work, Plan, Pray Foundation, aimed at providing scholarships for journalism students from Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). Trotter's lawsuit alleged that he was let go after challenging the NFL on its diversity and inclusion practices, as well as raising concerns about racially insensitive comments made by team owners. He expressed pride in his foundation's mission to support HBCU students, reflecting on how scholarships helped him during his own education at Howard University. The NFL, while denying Trotter's specific allegations, stated that his contract was not renewed due to economic challenges rather than retaliation. This resolution marks a significant step for Trotter and the promotion of diversity in sports journalism.
