Shutdown Corner
Michael Sam reportedly has found work. It's just not in the NFL.
According to TMZ, Sam will be participating on ABC's "Dancing with the Stars." Sam, who announced to the world a little more than a year ago that he's gay, is not currently on an NFL roster.
The free-agent defensive end has been out of work since being released by theDallas Cowboys from their practice squad last season. Before that, the Rams — who drafted Sam in Round 7 last year — cut him after a three-sack, 11-tackle preseason performance.
