Ryan Russell has played in the NFL for three seasons, but when he suits up and takes the field for his next gameday he will be the first man to play in a regular season game who identifies as bisexual.
Russell, currently a free agent, was drafted by the Cowboys in 2015 after playing college football at Purdue. He played one year at the Cowboys and then two years at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but no one knew who the defensive end really was.
Russell told ESPN that he hid his sexual identity during the first three years of his career. He said he had a fear that it could be the end of his career if he was honest about being bisexual.
"I rationalized my fear because it was easy to convince myself that hiding who I was made the most sense. The competition is so stiff to stay in the league, that any small mark can lead a front office to choose another guy for your job," Russell told ESPN's Kevin Arnovitz.

Bi-sexual...he wants it, he buys it!
So says Andrew Dice Clay. :-)
He claims he is not free, but he is reasonable, depending on which way he has to perform.
Any free agent at this time of the season is not NFL quality.
He is using his sexuality as a lever/prayer.
No one cares.
I mean the degree to which it has affected the AAU basketball feeder teams to college and the NBA, example.
So Sandusky is known, but he’s almost like James Porter of the Catholic priest scandals — just an early indicator of much more to come.
Why do we need to know this?
Yeah and he plays Canadian football. Now can we get Kaepernick to apply north of the border, eh?
Shouldn’t he be with the Rough Riders?
If he’s bi, then he’s more likely to have a loose end.
Switches back and forth between quarterback and wide receiver, but likely no longer a tight end.
Started out as a tight end. Now he’s a wide receiver.
It would be the ideal situation for everyone. He gets to play football without ever hearing The Star-Spangled Banner again, and we never have to see his ugly face again.
Just in case kneeling didn’t turn away the entire sensible half of the country, they want to get this into the discussion of NFL sports too. I remember when people watched sports for a break from politics and real-world issues.
A friend was in medical school. He was an intern in an emergency room and told of strange objects lodged in mens rectums. He also mention a common procedure to take in loose ends a few stitches and theyre good as new!
I agree. Can he play football?
Actually, I dont even care about that, since he doesnt play for the team from my area.
We dont need to know all this crap. Shut up and play your music, game, or whatever...
He sees a prime opportunity to shake down some idiots for money by claiming brave trailblazer status and eventually faux-discrimination. Lame and so redundant these days of incessant queer social hero-hood.
So why the need to expose it now????
so...he’s got a different reason for kneeling
He’s not bisexual any more. No woman will kiss a man who put’s male private parts in his mouth. Not one with any sense that is.
