prior to 1999, it was concluded that jess rodriguez, a fullback with the 1929 buffalo bisons, was the first nfl player of hispanic heritage. however, in 2000, heidi cadwell, molinet's granddaughter, contacted the pro football hall of fame about donating her grandfather's nfl contract from 1927. her call was of great interest to the hall because at the time it was widely believed that rodriguez was the first hispanic player in nfl history. further research by the hall of fame and hispanic historian mario longoria confirmed that, in fact, molinet played in the nfl in 1927. today molinet's contract is prominently displayed at the pro football hall of fame.
