My old friend Chief Hogsett denied his Native ancestry to me once when I was over at his house. To be fair, he was in the beginning stages of Alzheimer's at the time, and the subject never came up between us when his mind was clearer.

As could be expected, there are numerous players with at least partial Native background. I've found so many over the years, and their ancestry isn't common knowledge. Unfortunately, the majority weren't specific as to tribe(s), mostly listing "Indian" or some derivation of that terminology.

Here's a more modern player who I just learned today was part Native.
