So far, gay football player remains undrafted. So what’s the problem? Is the NFL full of homophobe bigots? Maybe. Or maybe he’s undrafted because “he’s short, he’s not a really good athlete and he doesn’t play good against the run.”

Rams took him. Somehow that seems appropriate.
Rams tight end
BREAKING NEWS: Saint Louis rams tight end
Will his jersey be pink and lace on it?
That would be hawt!
Wait...
Yes.
Ah poop...
Only in IHTM are we politically-incorrect enough to make that joke.
Surprised the
69'ers49'ers didn't take him.All 69er/49er SanFran jokes aside, the 49ers are dead serious about winning Super Bowls. They don't need or want a gay player for PR purposes if he really can't contribute much to the team. He would be more of a distraction to the team then he is worth.
But his social calendar would be full.
Top story right now at MSNBC and CNN. FOX is carrying it in their sports section where it belongs.
The sports section is a good place for it. Then I'd never even hear of it.
He blew his chance when he told everybody how much he sucked, and I bet its been awhile since he was a tight end
He might get drafted, MIGHT. If not, he might very well end up being signed as a free agent, & we'll see if he can make a club. If not, Canada might be in his future.
The radical gay community will be all over this unless he gets drafted. Then if he gets drafted, can not meet the standards of being an NFL linebacker and is released from what ever team tried the social experiment, the radicals will be screaming homophobic.
I guess nobody needed a wide receiver. Maybe they can make him a ball boy.
He can join the military.
Conspiracy Theory:
He knew from the very start that he sucks. He knew that he was in danger of NOT being drafted. Considering the situation with the previous player that got such a great reception for coming out, he hedge his bet that if he also came out it would garner enough sympathy and novelty that someone would sign him up.
It backfired.
I laugh in his face.
Uh oh, Miss Kimmy has haters.
They must be RAAAAAAAAAAAAAACIST!
Definitely LOL
There is a couple wondering allover..but yet again they don't have the balls to debate..just thumb down and run like a five year old door bell ringer.....:)
Great. So now he'll be the bitter gay undrafted guy who was discriminated against for being gay rather than for not being good enough to play in the NFL. No shame in that since very few of us good enough to play at the college level let alone as a pro.
He can also claim they're racists.
Soooo, in other words: He sucks.
Guess he blew it big time. He probably feels like he got shafted by the league.
Looks like the Rams picked him in the final round. No pun intended, they really did.
Oh no, here we go.
Could it be his tight end?
Or a wide receiver....
According to an NFC personnel official, "He’s kind of a one-task pass rusher. Just run up the field. And they swallow him up and kind of push him around..."
Hmm. First time I've ever heard "swallow him up" with respect to a football prospect.
