He's certain to be fawned over for his "bravery" and "heroism", as if it takes courage to "admit" something that is widely known to make you an instant media darling.
He probably thinks this will up his chances to go earlier in the draft, given the current PC climate.
He's probably right.

The play-by-play guys can have a field day with this:
“He slips inside the right tackle and takes the quarterback from behind.”
“He really stuck it to the runner that time, getting right in his face and making him cough up the ball.”
“He has been all over the tight ends today”
“That wide receiver really opened himself up to the defense on that play!”
“He comes hard off the ball and takes the running back down in the backfield”
