Michael Sam became the reality show of the NFL Draft weekend, as the nation waited to see if someone would draft an openly gay player.
It appears draft weekend could turn out the same way.
According to Tom Pelissero of
USA Today, the Rams have cut 17 players today,
but none of them were Sam.
Among the cuts were defensive linemen
Kourtnei Brown and
Deantre Harlan, along with sixth-round quarterback
Garrett Gilbert and seventh-round tackle
Mitchell Van Dyk.
That would move them to 58, with five cuts to go to the limit.
And the world will be watching to see if Sam makes history.
