I have no problem with gay people and I am completely fine with Sam playing for my team, if they were to draft them. But, the thing NFL teams might be thinking is, if Sam doesn't perform up to standards and is cut because of performance, will it be twisted by the media that he was cut for being gay? It would be a huge PR nightmare, and I believe that is very unfair to Sam as he will be judged more by his sexual orientation than his ability as a football player. It will be interesting to see how the teams react.
