I don't blame him. Who would want to draft a guy who's only known for who he likes to sleep with? Imagine the backlash that will happen when the Rams cut him? Who would want to deal with the media circus that is Michael Sam?

As a coach, I think TD understands what a media circus surrounding one person does to team cohesion and that's why he said what he did.

Agreed.

I have no issue with the statement or the sentiment. I get it.

But, let's PLEASE not suggest that Sams has no football accomplishments at all.

Rams better play Sam a lot during preseason so if Sam is released they have plenty of evidence that it was Sam's lack of skills rather than being gay or this thing could blow up.
