First Active Gay NFL player comes out
- Thread starter lex cath
- Start date
Smart move. He will probably make more endorsements than Mahomes even though I never heard of him until now.
Someone wrote: "chasing sacks on AND off the field.." and I was dead lol.
Good for him though.. not easy to come out in that particular sport.

The only losers here are the Tightends that he's gonna ravage.
I'll be here all night! Tips your waitresses, everyone.

I also foresee Nike sales jumping up another 31% 
I guarantee that they already know and do not give AF. Football is about the most homoerotic sport this side of ancient naked Greco-Roman wrestling anyway.
Wasn’t he a receiver?
Slot, moving to wide this year
- No issues with the dude coming out; good for him
- Goodell sounded like a woke dork with his "speak his truth" line
- I'm so glad this dude is a Big Ten guy
No one cares either. It's 2021 but these ppl keep acting like it's 1985
Not surprisingly the only ppl that do are ppl in the thread that really hope it makes ppl mad. Lololololol

I could have sworn Willie Gault was out as a gay man in the 80s.
Maybe he wasn't until after he retired.
I don't have any problems with it nor the jokes that have and will be made about Nassib.
All my gay friends have a great sense of humor about it unless maybe jokes are just totally tasteless.

Willie Gault is married to a woman, never heard anything about him coming out as gay
I'm sorry but I don't need to know from celebrities or pro sports athletes who they like to sleep with. Couldn't care less.
Guess they'll be moving to wide receiver after that
If it is so normal and nothing out of the ordinary, why do they have to keep announcing themselves?
It would be like a bird announcing it can fly.

-offers comfort/support to gay boys/young men playing football in HS and college...which can't be easy. Gives them a role model, presumably a positive one. Suicide is a big deal amongst gay teens...I'd imagine this helps, and that's a good thing.
Who names their kid Carl anymore ( last 70 years anyway )
I think that's where a lot of people are on the whole subject.
Do whatever you choose and move on.
Just someone trying to get attention. Takes zero courage to do that nowadays.
-i said nothing of courage, man. You're tilting at windmills.
Maybe his teammates, or others, suspected or accused him of being gay.
Seems like I remembers something about it but that was 30+ years ago.
I have 3 gay friends who were married to women at one time. lol
If you can't understand how coming out can be liberating and inspirational to others in the same position (especially with public figures), you're either being obtuse or homophobic.
I'll never understand taking the contrarian view on everything. To me, Whitlock comes off like a miserable bastard obsessed with whatever the "Alphabet Mafia" is. He's looking for a villain where there isn't one.
What rudd1 said is absolutely true on the subject. Dude did a quick video on social media and donated some coin as well. Good for him. I'm sure others are going to feel comfortable enough to do the same down the road too.
