This is the story of Deacon Jones' rise to the top of the heap in the National Football League. "Headslap" refers to the lightning move popularized by Jones, when a player could rattle the helmet of a blocker by belting him along side the head. And Deacon - The "Secretary of Defense" - did this better than anyone. So devastating was his trademark move that the league eventually outlawed it. More than a simple sports story, Headslap brings to full view the NFL during the 1960s and 1970s - a time of incredible social upheaval and change in the United States. Deacon's story reveals the difficulties that all black players confronted trying to break into the NFL.
