Since its origins in the late 1800s, football has maintained an image of a rough and tumble sport that is not for the faint of heart.
It boasts strong men who compete on every play for mere yards of dirt while manhandling one another for coveted real estate.
By the end of each contest, the participants are bruised, bloodied and battered to the point of exhaustion.
That image has prevented some from partaking in the sport due to the connotations of brawn, masculinity, ruggedness, and great depths of machismo.
During the first several decades of the NFL, only the strongest of men dared enter the arenas of battle and heaven help those who might be considered different.
Their kind was not wanted by the league, team owners, participants and fans.
The ugly early history of the NFL held an unwritten rule that women, men of color and gays were not permitted to play.
In the last half century, men of all colors have positions on team rosters and even women have begun infiltrating the league as coaches and front office execs.
As much progress as the league has made, men who identify as gay have been slow to be accepted.
In 2014, that idea appeared to shift drastically when Michael Sam was drafted by the then-St. Louis Rams in the 7th round of the NFL Draft.

While playing at the University of Missouri, Sam decided to throw caution to the wind before his senior year in 2013 and share with his Tigers teammates that he was gay.
Instead of rejecting him, Sam’s fellow brothers-in-arms fully embraced him.
Missouri rode the wave of brotherhood to go from 5-7 in 2012 to 12-2 and a Cotton Bowl win over Oklahoma State in 2013.
Then, Sam became the first openly gay man to become drafted when the Rams selected him in the final round.
Although he didn’t last long in professional football, Sam gave a glimmer of hope to those who identify as gay that there just might be a place for them in the sport.
This is the story of Michael Sam.
A Less-Than-Ideal Childhood
Michael Alan Sam Jr. was born on January 7, 1990, in Galveston, Texas.

He was the seventh of eight children born to parents Michael Sr. and JoAnn.
Unfortunately, the family experienced a life’s worth of heartache in just a few years.
Before Michael Jr. was born, an older sister died as an infant after drowning in a lake.
After he was born, Michael’s brother, Russell, died of a gunshot wound.
Following the incident, Michael Sr., “left us, like a coward does,” Sam recounted in 2017.
The next few years were difficult, but they are also some of Sam’s favorite memories as his older brother, Julian, helped raise him.
Then, in 1998, tragedy struck the family yet again.
One morning, Julian walked Michael and his sister to the school bus stop.
“As the bus was leaving my brother walked back into the house and I never saw him again,” Sam said.
Julian has never been found.
Two more of Sam’s older brothers fell into a life of gangs and violence and mistreated their younger brother.
Since then they have only known a world in and out of incarceration.
Sam Gravitates to Football
Although he could have fallen victim to self pity and joined the life his two other brothers lived, Michael Jr chose a different path.
While he was in middle school, he insisted his friends call him “Ice Man” because he felt invincible.
Sam also spent extensive time with the parents of his close friend, Jordan Turner.
By the time he arrived at Hitchcock High School in Hitchcock, Texas, Sam already appeared like a person well beyond his years.
“People used to think he was already a grown man,” Turner said.
Sam wanted to play football but his mother, a staunch Jehovah’s Witness, didn’t like the idea.
That’s when Michael Sr. intervened.
“My Mom told my coach ‘No,’ and the only good thing my dad has ever done for me was to convince her to allow me to play football, and without that I wouldn’t be here today,” Sam said in 2017.
During his freshman year, Sam made the varsity football team and was named All-District at the end of the season.

He continued receiving accolades throughout his prep career as big-name college programs came to watch him play.
As a senior in 2008, Sam was named All-District as both a defensive end and offensive lineman and also received All-Houston Metro honors as a defensive end.
His play led to a 75th overall ranking as a defensive end in the nation.
Not only was he tough on the field, Sam didn’t put up with bull off the field.
He openly bristled when he heard derogatory racial comments about his color and even challenged a white classmate at a party.
When the classmate called Sam a “n—–,” Sam challenged him to step outside.
The student agreed, to his detriment, as Sam unloaded and dropped the kid with one punch.
“It was the hardest punch I’ve ever seen,” Turner said. “If you called him a n—– or was racist to him, he would say something.”
Sam Signs with Missouri
In the summer before his senior year, Sam traveled throughout the West, attending numerous football camps at various campuses.
When he returned to Hitchcock, he had offers from Arizona State, Colorado State, Iowa State and Houston.
Sam, however, told the local media he wanted to play for Texas A&M.
An offer from the Aggies never materialized.
As it turned out, A&M’s loss was the University of Missouri’s gain.

Then-Tigers defensive line coach, Craig Kuligowski, recruited Sam and brought his name to the attention of Tigers head coach, Gary Pinkel.
“Mike, for whatever reason, got slightly overlooked,” Kuligowski recalled in 2013. “But I knew about him. I liked him. We had a spot that had opened. Coach wanted to meet him in person before he made an offer. Obviously, I thought he was going to be a good player for us or I wouldn’t have recruited him.”
Sam went on an official visit to Missouri just days before National Signing Day and came away impressed.
He also went home with a scholarship after Pinkel offered and Sam accepted.
“I didn’t understand what it was then, but I felt the universe was telling me that I should go there,” Sam said.
Making a Name for Himself
Sam arrived on campus in 2009 and redshirted as the Tigers went 8-5.
A year later, Missouri went 10-4 and beat Northwestern in the Valero Alamo Bowl as Sam got some playing time at defensive end.
He posted a dozen combined tackles, one sack, two forced fumbles and a pick that he returned 62 yards for a score, but a penalty negated the touchdown.
During a contest against McNeese State on September 11, Sam tallied a safety, forced a fumble and blocked a punt.

He was named a second-team All-American after the season by one media outlet.
In 2011, Sam had 29 total tackles including 16 solo, three tackles for a loss, 1.5 sacks and made a key interception in the closing minutes of a victory against Texas Tech on November 19.
Then, in 2012, the Tigers had a rough season, going 5-7.
Sam, however, seemed to come into his own, starting nine times and coming up with several big plays during the year.
Against Southeastern Louisiana in the season’s first week, Sam scooped up a fumble and returned it seven yards for a touchdown.

Four weeks later, he sacked the University of Central Florida quarterback just before halftime to effectively kill the Knights scoring drive.
On October 13, Mizzou lost to top-ranked Alabama, but Sam had five tackles and 1.5 sacks for the day.
As a 6’2”, 260-pound junior, he tallied 22 combined tackles, seven stops for a loss, 4.5 sacks, two forced fumbles and one fumble return for a touchdown.
Sam Comes Out to His Teammates
While he was still in high school, Sam knew there was something different about him.
That was confirmed before he left for Missouri.
“In the summer of 2009, I had experimentation and sure enough afterwards I knew I was pretty damn gay,” he said, with a laugh. “That’s when I knew. So, I became a freshman at University of Missouri knowing that I am gay, but I still tried to deny it. I said to myself, ‘Well what do I do? Do I come out? Is this just a phase? What is this?’”
By his junior year, he had met Tigers swimmer, Vito Cammisano, and it was love at first sight for Sam.
“He pretty much changed my life forever,” Sam said. “We hit it off fast. We started dating secretly. It was like a fairy tale. I was so happy. I’d never been so happy in my life.”
As expected, rumors began to swirl that Sam might be gay and he immediately recoiled at the thought of his teammates finding out, so he took precautions.
“I didn’t take that well because I’m a football player and I’m a big guy and I’m not supposed to be gay and this isn’t supposed to be happening,” Sam said. “So, I started distancing myself from Vito and I was not in a good place.”
Eventually, Cammisano grew tired of Sam’s double-standard and directly challenged his boyfriend.
“We were very secretive,” Sam said. “And after so many fights Vito had kind of had enough. He was tired of this lifestyle because he was out and I was in the closet.”
Finally, one day Cammisano asked Sam, “When you look in the mirror who do you see?”
Over the course of the next few months, Sam did some soul searching and realized his partner was right.

He decided to come clean and tell his coaches and teammates during fall camp before the 2013 season.
Pinkel had each player walk to the front of the group, introduce themselves and share something their teammates might not know.
“So when it was my turn, I said, ‘My name is Michael Sam. My major is sports management.’ Then I paused. I paused because it was the first time I ever said these words, and then I said, ‘and I’m gay.’ And the look on my teammates faces was, like, ‘Oh, crap. Michael just came out,’” Sam said in 2017.
His teammates already had a feeling Sam was gay, but his announcement confirmed it and they backed him 100%.
“It was the turning point of my life because that was who I was,” Sam said. “At that moment, I was truly Michael Sam and I had no regrets, and the rest is history.”
2013
Now that his secret was out, Sam felt relieved and played his senior year with a zeal he had not felt before on the playing field.
“I was just happy at being alive,” he said. “I was happy at being myself and it showed in my performance in the field.”
The Tigers began the year 7-0 and everyone on the team was feeling it, especially Sam.
That season, he had two, three-sack games against Arkansas State and Vanderbilt in back-to-back weeks.

He also led the SEC in total sacks, 10 (tying a program record for a single season), and tackles for loss, 18, to go with his 47 combined tackles, two pass defenses, and yet another fumble recovery for a score.
“He’s just a beast on the field,” linebacker Donovan Bonner said a few days before Missouri faced Auburn in the SEC title game. “I’ve watched him mature on and off the field. … He helps the defense out a lot. He’s become a leader. He was in the shadow of some great defensive ends over the years. … It’s his time to shine. He stepped into that role, and he’s really excelled at a level that no one expected.”
Mizzou lost to South Carolina then Auburn in the conference championship game, but defeated Oklahoma State in the Cotton Bowl by 10.

After the season, Sam was selected as a Unanimous All-American, first-team All-SEC and was picked as the SEC Defensive Player of the Year.
“He was a good player a year ago,” Pinkel said late in the season. “He went from a good to a great player. He did that through remarkable determination and effort, relentless competitiveness play after play after play. I’m so proud of him.”
During his time at Missouri, Sam had 110 combined tackles, 32 tackles for loss, 17 sacks, two interceptions, four passes defended, two fumble returns for touchdowns and five forced fumbles.
Sam Comes Out to the Nation
After Sam came clean to his teammates, he decided not to tell the public at large right away.
There were rumors, but nothing substantial.

— HRC (@HRC) February 10, 2014
Then, during an interview on ESPN’s Outside the Lines in early February 2014, Sam dropped the news to a national audience.
“I am an openly, proud gay man,” he said in the interview.
He also added that he wanted to tell the world his story in his own way.
“I didn’t realize how many people actually knew, and I was afraid that someone would tell or leak something out about me,” he said. “I want to own my truth. … No one else should tell my story but me.”
When asked if his coming out would affect his potential NFL Draft status, Sam was honest.
“I understand how big this is,” he said. “It’s a big deal. No one has done this before. And it’s kind of a nervous process, but I know what I want to be … I want to be a football player in the NFL.”
He then attempted to sell his ability to potential employers.
“I just want to go to the team who drafts me,” he said, “because that team knows about me, knows that I’m gay, and also knows that I work hard. That’s the team I want to go to.”
Missouri Students Stand for Sam
Approximately a week later, the Tigers were returning from a Mizzou basketball game where the team was honored at halftime for their Cotton Bowl victory.
At one point, a small group from Westboro Baptist Church was on hand to heckle Sam and held up derogatory signs.
However, fellow Missouri students found out the hate group was in town and came out by the thousands.
Make sure everyone check out SEC Storied "Tigers United" tonight!!!🐯🐯🐯 pic.twitter.com/bnxKcXfDNp
— Michael Sam (@MichaelSam52) September 22, 2015
They then spent the next few minutes forming a human barrier between Sam and the Westboro contingent.
“A single line, arm-in-arm, a sign of One Mizzou,” the student group wrote on Facebook. They called it #StandWithSam.
“We wanted to do something to stand up to the hate,” sophomore Alix Carruth said.
“We’re both Christians,” sophomore Kelaney Lakers said. “We know that’s not God. God is love.”
Sam’s teammates were enraged by the so-called Christian group and also stood by Sam.
“We were angry,” said senior left guard Max Copeland. “We’re football players. We’re protective. That’s our brother.”
In the end, Sam was overwhelmed by the positive response from people he mostly never met.
“Sam was just so moved,” said a spokesman for Sam. “It was a huge day for him. A wonderful day. A life-changing day.”
The Kiss Viewed Around the World
In the weeks before the 2014 NFL Draft, word spread that Sam’s name might not be called until late in the event, if at all.
NFL leadership said all the right things, though, including two names at the top of the organization’s hierarchy.
“We admire Michael Sam’s honesty and courage,” NFL senior vice president of communications Greg Aiello said in the statement. “Michael is a football player. Any player with ability and determination can succeed in the NFL. We look forward to welcoming and supporting Michael Sam in 2014.”
Fans of the league were surprised to find out that Commissioner Roger Goodell’s brother, Michael, was gay and that Roger consistently defended his brother growing up.
“Roger is very much a hero figure for me,” Michael Goodell told Time magazine in 2012.
Scouts and personnel directors stated that the only reason that Sam might drop in the draft was because he tested [poorly] as an outside linebacker instead of defensive end during Senior Bowl week.

Then, with the 249th overall pick in the 7th Round of the Draft, the St. Louis Rams picked Sam, making him the first openly gay man in the history of the NFL to get drafted.
When his name was announced, Sam turned and kissed Cammisano and the moment was captured on live television.

While some sport’s fans reacted with outrage to the kiss, others responded more favorably.
“It was my sports moment of the year, hands down,” said Jim Buzinski, one of the founders of the website Outsports. “We’ve seen World Cup celebrations. World Series celebrations. All sorts of celebration and dejection. This was something nobody had ever seen before. That’s why the image was powerful. Because it caused this reaction or discussion that was either good or bad. People were confronted with it. Because that’s what gay men do. They actually kiss just like straight people do.”
Then-president Barack Obama praised Sam and the Rams for the union.
“From the playing field to the corporate boardroom, LGBT Americans prove everyday that you should be judged by what you do and not who you are,” Obama said.
As if on cue, NFL players were asked if they would feel comfortable knowing a gay man was in the locker room or showers with them.

— Michael Sam (@MichaelSam52) August 9, 2014
Sam was one of the first to address the issue.
“Hopefully it will be the same like my [Missouri] locker room,” Sam said. “It’s a workplace. If you’ve ever been in a Division I or pro locker room, it’s a business place. You want to act professional. I mean, people will talk about the stereotype of gays being in the locker room … to me, I think that it’s a little stereotyped that gay people are predators. It’s just very offensive.”
“I thought NFL players must be the cleanest people ever, because all they do is talk about showers,” said Buzinski.
Sam Cut by the Rams
Then-Rams head coach Jeff Fisher was excited to bring Sam in and get started and likened the draft selection to when the Rams signed the first black players (Woody Strode and Kenny Washington) in the league in 1946.
“This is the second historic moment in the history of this franchise,” Fisher said. “From that standpoint, from a historic standpoint, I’m honored to be a part of that.”
When asked, Sam’s new teammates didn’t appear to care that he was gay.
“Obviously people are going to make something out of it,” defensive end Chris Long told ESPN.com. “He’s not the first gay player to ever play football. He might be the first openly gay professional football player, but there’s all types of people from all over in an NFL locker room, it really is a melting pot and it never ceases to amaze me how a locker room can just mesh, people from all different walks of life, so I don’t think it’s an issue. He’s coming to a really good D-line room.”
The feel good story led to football fans making Sam’s jersey the second highest selling jersey of NFL rookies (behind Cleveland’s Johnny Manziel) during a fourth month period.
He also received the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at the ESPY Awards that summer and was chosen as one of GQ’s Men of the Year.

Unfortunately, despite the fact that Sam had 11 total tackles (including a team-high six in one game) and three sacks in the 2014 preseason, he was released during final cuts.
“When we drafted Michael, we mentioned that it was going to be a tough road,” coach Jeff Fisher said. “Those four defensive ends we have on the roster are good. And they’re very productive. As well as the tackles. That’s the strength of our football team. But again, it was a football decision.”

Instead of keeping Sam, the Rams decided to hold on to Ethan Westbrooks, who was labeled a more versatile defensive line prospect.
“He was very, very productive in the preseason for us and played all four spots,” Fisher said about Westbrooks. “He’s a very, very talented young player that I think has a really good future.”
Dallas Signs, then Cuts, Sam
Just days after his release from the Rams, the Dallas Cowboys signed Sam to their practice squad.

“We got nothing but good reports about him from people in St. Louis,” head coach Jason Garrett said at a press conference announcing the signing. “We just want to give him a chance to come in and see if he can help our football team.”
Much like the national media experienced from the athletes on the St. Louis roster, there was no controversy about the signing coming from Cowboys players.
“Everybody in the locker room gave you the standard answer: ‘He’s a football player, and if he can help the team, that’s great,’” said Rainer Sabin, a writer with the Dallas Morning News.
For the next seven weeks, Sam showed signs of improvement as an NFL player.
“Comes to work every day and practices hard,” Garrett said in mid-October. “One of 10 practice roster guys that we have, so he’s working on his skills, trying to develop, but also doing a lot of other things. Playing offense, defense, playing the kicking game, that’s what a lot of those guys do.”
Then, on October 21, 2014, Dallas waived Sam in favor of linebacker Troy Davis.

“They’d had big personalities in the locker room,” Sabin said, “and they were more than capable of handling the media surrounding that. … This is a team that played 20 defensive linemen last year because of injuries. They were willing to roll out pretty much anybody. If the same scenario played out this year, it could have very well been that Michael Sam was promoted to the active roster. It was a football decision more than anything.”
Sam Makes History with the CFL
Sam’s pro football career wasn’t quite finished, yet.
On May 22, 2015, the Canadian Football League’s Montreal Alouettes signed him, making Sam the first openly gay athlete in the league’s history.

— Bleacher Report (@BleacherReport) May 22, 2015
“I am very excited and proud to join the Montreal Alouettes,” Sam said. “I cannot wait to put on the pads, get back on the field and work hard each and every day with my teammates to bring a Grey Cup to the great fans here in Montreal.”
Community leaders in the area were excited to have Sam as well.
“It speaks to the CFL being proactive and not reactive,” said Wade Davis, a former NFL player who came out as gay after he retired. “The important thing now is that these conversations are being had. It’s really transformative.”
Less than a month later, he left the team for “personal reasons,” causing some concern with the Montreal brass.
(Sam and his boyfriend, Vito Cammisano, broke off their engagement in June 2015, but that has not been given as the reason Sam left Montreal).
“I wouldn’t be surprised if he returns. I’m surprised he left. I was very surprised. If he doesn’t come back, I would think football’s over for him. He’s the one that has to face that,” Montreal general manager Jim Popp told the Montreal Gazette. “But I don’t think he doesn’t want to play football. That’s why he came here.”
He returned two weeks later, then left again after playing in the Alouettes game against the Ottawa Redblacks on August 7, citing mental health reasons.

“The last 12 months have become very difficult for me to the point where I became concerned for my mental health,” Sam tweeted Friday evening. “Because of this, I am going to step away from the game at this time.”
Later that month, Sam was a guest on the Dan Patrick Show and explained why he left the CFL.
“It was a really last call to go to the CFL. I never really wanted to go to the CFL, but I did and I committed to going,” Sam told Patrick. “But you know, I left [the Alouettes] with some personal issues the first time and the second time I came back I really hadn’t gotten over those issues,” he said.
Life After Playing Football
Ultimately, Sam was upset with himself for his handling of his national coming out and how the constant media attention drained him.
“If I had it my way, I never would have done it the way I did,” he told GQ of his coming-out.
In 2016, unfounded rumors circulated that the Rams drafted Sam in a deal with the NFL not to appear that year on HBO’s Hard Knocks series.

Initially after leaving pro football as a player, Sam steered toward media work and then spent the next several years writing and traveling on the motivational speaker circuit.
Then, in early April 2022, he joined the staff of the Barcelona Dragons of the European Football League as the organization’s defensive line coach.

“I am extremely grateful for the opportunity joining the Barcelona Dragons organization. I want to thank GM Bart Iaccarino, head coach Andrew Weidinger and the Barcelona team. I hope to contribute however I can to help the defensive line to be the best pass rushers in the European League,” Sam said in the team release.
Sam also played on the Dragons’ defensive line due to a player’s retirement.
In 2024, Sam was hired as the assistant defensive line coach for the Panthers Wroclaw of the European League of Football.
