Michael Sam will step away from professional football, he announced via Twitter on Friday night.
Sam, the 25-year-old who began the season with the CFL's Montreal Alouettes, cited a tumultuous past year for leaving football at this time.
The Alouettes confirmed in a release that Sam has left the club for "personal reasons" and that he has been added to the team's suspended list.
Sam made the announcement in a series of three tweets.

OH NOS! First homo pro football wannabee crashes and burns one final time. I guess the Ophra homo pro football wannabee reality show is probably off too, hey?
There’s been lots of homo NFL players. And they were well known. No big deal.
America used to be a grownup country.
This is why I never listen to ESPN commentators.
Good grief. What a mess this country is. PC gone mad.
The question is... will Obama call him again and this time ask him out to dinner and drinks? /s
So, to recap. Didn’t make the Rams. Didn’t make the Cowboys practice squad. And now drops out of the CFL. why does this guy get so much press?
He never liked the gay lifestyle. He just got sucked into it.
It seemw that Sam the man’s significant other, Vito Cammisano’s uncle was quite the mafioso figure. The “boss of all bosses” in the Kansas City mob. So does this mean Vito is the, ahem Fairy Godfather? I’m sorry I couldn’t help myself :^P
He got his fame. What a poser piece of *****
No that is the way he entered.
I thought he played "defense" in the SEC, which would be newsworthy.
Imagine if he’d not been a football player. Had he gone into government, media, or big business he’d have been there for 40 years with everyone touting his greatness at every turn. Instead , placed in a meritocracy, he found his level and washed out physically and mentally.
I get a front row seat to some of that life style and what you say is true in my opinion.
Well...he certainly entered pro-football through the rear door.
FR really needs a “like” button for posts like yours.
Well hells bells everyone knew he had mental health issues he is a homosexual.
Sam is effed in the head. Oh, wait...
Seriously though, if I'm C.J. Mosley, 2013 CO-SEC Defensive Player of the Year, I'm demanding that the SEC remove Michael Sam from the award that year and name me the sole recipient. I bet he's been pissed about that ever since it happened.
Eh. Sam would have been nuts even if he was straight.
