James Black (defensive end)
James R. Black III (November 4, 1956 – December 30, 2018) was an American professional football player who was a defensive end in the National Football League (NFL) and United States Football League (USFL). He played college football for the South Carolina State Bulldogs. He played in the USFL for the Pittsburgh Maulers and in the NFL as a replacement player for the Kansas City Chiefs in 1987.

Replacement player
In professional sports, a replacement player is an athlete who is not a member of the league's players association and plays during a labor dispute such as a strike or lockout, serving as a strikebreaker.

Replacements related to strikes are mostly a North American phenomenon, since players in many other countries do not have league-wide collective salary bargaining (instead bargaining only with the club they are contracted to, and most commonly on an individual basis). A strike did however happen in the 2011–12 La Liga season in Spain, but no replacement teams were set up.

Elsewhere, replacement teams can occasionally happen through, among other things, illness breakouts (especially COVID-19) and aviation accidents.
