Michael Sam addressed questions about potentially being the first openly gay person in the NFL at the Combine today.  The All American Defensive Lineman from Missouri  came out on ESPN weeks ago, a decision that has sparked discussion how he he will fit into the league from the pro football locker room to the field.When asked about how he is being treated he said he has gotten more positive feedback than negative.  When asked how he would respond to name calling by a team mate he said he would have a conversation with the person and hope it did not lead to anything else.

Last year, NBA Center Jason Collins became the first pro baller to come on in Sport Illustrated.
