First Openly Gay NFL Player Carl Nassib Cut by Raiders

First active openly gay NFL player Carl Nassib has become an LGBTQ icon in his short time with the Las Vegas Raiders.

He's opened up several times about his decision to come out, and he has used his platform to speak in support of LGBTQ youth.

Now Nassib is reportedly out of a job after the Raiders have decided to release him as a player to save money, reported NFL.com. The cut of his 7 million salary will help save the team $8 million towards its salary cap, according to NFL.com.

Nassib spent two seasons in Cleveland and two years in Tampa Bay before landing at the Las Vegas Raiders. As an edge-rusher, he has compiled 22 sacks in six seasons.

Now that Nassib is a young free agent with many years of play ahead of him, the question becomes: Which team deserves him?
