Michael Sam released
http://www.dallascowboys.com/news/20...l-sam-practice
IRVING, Texas – The Cowboys have decided to waive defensive end Michael Sam. The practice squad player who joined the team on Sept. 3, spent the first seven weeks of the season on the 10-man squad and never made it to the 53-man roster. Sam, the first openly-gay player in the NFL, was a seventh-round draft pick of the Rams. He spent all of the offseason and training camp with the St. Louis before being released and signed to the Cowboys’ practice squad. The move opens a spot for linebacker Troy Davis, a second-year pro from Central Florida who worked out with the team on Monday. Last edited by TLO; 10-21-2014 at 01:38 PM.. |

I'd sign him for his cooking skills alone. As long as he doesn't jizz on anybody, or the food.

I can't believe the guy who was SEC defensive player of the year can't make an NFL roster. I would think he'd be great on special teams. Wish we'd give him a tryout.

It's fun to makes jokes at the expense of a minority. Let's define an in group and an out group and dehumanize the out group.

He reminds me of a guy on VT when I was in college. Corey Moore I think? He was a beast DE in college, but couldn't crack an NFL roster cause he was too small to play DE and too slow for OLB.

The Cowboys tried to get him to make some noise at tight end but he whiffed.

Why can't any GOOD football players come out of the closet ?

Lucky for the Chiefs, what you say doesn't mean squat.

His limitations as a special teams player are the very reason he isn't on an active roster. Teams need their developmental pass rushers to also play special teams, and Sam's not going to give you much on ST.

When they tried him out at center there was too much of an echo and everyone kept jumping off sides.
