A lot of people said it would happen. I'm surprised it took this long. If he wants a shot, this isn't the way to get it. No one owes him because he's gay.

How many of you watched the video? They approached him randomly in an airport and he was trying to brush them off without being rude.

I just didn't get an anti NFL vibe from the video as much as he wanted those people to go away.
This. Shame on TMZ for misrepresenting the comments of Sam and unfairly using lies about his sexuality for their own financial gain.

Horrible title by TMZ. Watch the video. He wasn't seeking attention. He was doing all he could to ignore the reporters. Just said he is a good player that has played against good competition. Nothing wrong with that. No wonder people don't want to talk to reporters.

I watched the video. Michael Sam acting like he's better than everyone with his nose in his phone. It was funny seeing his boyfriend at the end of the video dragging the luggage like a bitch.

I think he was annoyed by the camera crew. I bet if some fans walked buy and said hello he would have been fine.

What a fricking ridiculous headline.

That's not what he said at all.

It's really because he can't be an all tools player. He can't play DE or OLb in a pinch for you nor does he offer anything on special teams


This x100, he's not a strong run stopper at DE, doesn't have any coverage skills so can't move to inside backer, and doesn't have the speed to play special teams.

I can name 10 former LSU players who got a little run in the league but never stuck due to some or all of the following reasons.
