The football league is celebrating National Coming Out Day with a video featuring openly gay and bisexual former players such as Ryan O'Callaghan, Jeff Rohrer, R.K. Russell and Wade Davis, encouraging current LGBTQ players to come out.
The NFL released the 30-second prolonged "National Coming Out Night PSA" on YouTube Saturday. It's scheduled to atmosphere during early-game Fox broadcasts Sunday, which is National Coming Out Day, according to Outsports.com.
As of Sunday afternoon, the video has roughly 22,000 views.
O'Callaghan, a former Patriots offensive lineman, spent his entire career hiding his sexuality from teammates. He shared that battle in his new novel, "My Life On The Line," which was released last year.
"I try to make sure I reveal people how good it feels when you can finally be yourself, and that weight that's off your shoulders," O'Callaghan told WBZ-TV last year.
The PSA begins with O'Callaghan, Rohrer, Russell and Davis collectively saying: "To all current players who are thinking of coming out, when you are ready, so are we."

It’s easy to giggle off the paleolithic comments of the popular New England Patriots’ tight conclude, Rob Gronkowski. “Gronk,” as his cavemen fans call him, is known as much for his spectacularly brutish on-field play as he is for his equally brutish off-field remarks. In a recent interview, Gronk quipped, “I’m not even a spacious receiver. I got a tight finish and a secure booty.” Ignoring the thuggish verb decision of “I got” as opposed to “I have,” let’s break down what he means. This “joke” is meant as a thinly-veiled double-entendre about his position. He plays tight end, but he wants the world to recognize that his anus is not wide enough to receive penetration from a match. Instead, he has a tight cease and a secure booty, implying that his rectum is too narrow for him to be bottomed. Of course, given that Gronk is 6’6”, 265 pounds, his anus is almost certainly large enough for penetration. He probably wouldn’t even perceive it, given the density of his porridge brain.
These comments are harmful to both the queer community and to people who appreciate anal sex but struggle with the complexities of parts that don’t fit. Gronkowski trivializes the vulnerability of couples that long to spice things up. The
suspected NFL players of being gay and/or bisexual.
I know this can be a dicey subject for some, as they don't want to believe their 'ICONS' can be gay! But I will bear their wrath and proceed with my 'selection.': Tom Brady (Bi), Aaron Rodgers; Wes Welker(?),JJ Watt (just got married to a woman),Julian Elderman; Danny Amendola, Brian Cushing, Christian McCaffrey (currently 'involved' with a 'beard')--on the fence-Rob Gronkowski. Several more, but I mind I would permit others Post their 'suspects!'

So, per OP,
New England Patriots tight end Steal Gronkowski has a colorfulreputation that gets him into hot fluid with the media, so the stakes were high at last Wednesday’s ESPY awards when he took a moment to acknowledge some questions from OutSports. But rather than create a unused controversy with an insensitive remark, he joined the many professional athletes who would welcome a gay teammate into the lockerroom:
OUTSPORTS: How would you feel if one of your teammates on the Patriots came out of the closet this season?
GRONKOWSKI: If that’s how they are, that’s how they are. I represent, we’re teammates so, as prolonged as he’s being a fine teammate and being respectful and everything, that’s cool.
Gronkowski couldn’t recall ever playing with a male lover teammate — certainly no professional football players have ever come out until after they retire from play — but his comments will help make a more inclusive environment for future players to come out. As openly gay former player Wade Davis remarked, “Just the fact that Gronkowski was willing to be interviewed by you for a gay Web site, it’s powerful to somebody.” For many young people, athletes enjoy Gronkowski with a prominent general profile serve as
