Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Carl Nassib made history Monday by coming out as the first active openly gay NFL player. Nassib made the announcement in an Instagram post. “I just wanted to take a quick moment to say that I’m gay,” Nassib said in a video recording. ”I’ve been meaning to do this for a while now but finally feel comfortable getting it off my chest. I really have the best life, the best family, friends and job a guy can ask for. “I’m a pretty private person, so I hope you guys know that I’m not doing this for attention.
