Former Cowboys DE Ryan Russell reveals he is bisexual amid NFL comeback attempt

Former NFL defensive end Ryan Russell, who last played for the Buccaneers in 2017, penned an as-told-to article in which he revealed that he is bisexual.

“Have I lied to teammates, coaches, trainers, front-office executives and fans about who I am?” Russell wrote in an article posted Thursday to ESPN.com. “Not exactly. But withholding information is a form of deceit. And I want the next part of my career – and life – steeped in trust and honesty. During the season you spend more time with your team than with your own family; truth and honesty are the cornerstones of a winning culture. My truth is that I'm a talented football player, a damn good writer, a loving son, an overbearing brother, a caring friend, a loyal lover, and a bisexual man.

“Today, I have two goals: returning to the NFL, and living my life openly. I want to live my dream of playing the game I've worked my whole life to play, and being open about the person I've always been.”

Russell, 27, was a fifth-round draft pick of the Dallas Cowboys out of Purdue in 2015 but was later cut after just one season. He latched on with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and played two seasons (2016-17). He eventually started seven of his 14 appearances in his final year in Tampa, collecting 17 tackles and two sacks.

Thanks Mike Florio.


Anyone who has ever seen a Cowboys game is called out, no matter how long he played there.


Also, lel at him trying to use this as an attempt to gain sympathy and a job.

I could crack a lot of Brokeback Cowboy jokes, but...in all seriousness, I hope more guys feel comfortable enough to start coming out. It's sad to think of people staying in the closet their whole lives because they worry what teammates or fans or teams may think of their true self.

He's just trying to get the politically correct crowd on his side, so when he doesn't make a team, he can say it is because he is g@y. The media will be up in arms.

So he pretty much said -
If it has a pussy, I'll fuck it. If it has a dick, I'll fuck it.

How about they just live their lives and not make it a point to tell everyone who they want to or are wiling to have sex with. That would be a good start.
