It stands to reason that if you out yourself prior to the draft of the biggest sport in America, you are timing it that way for a reason. I just don't believe that he did it to be honest with NFL GMs.

I could be wrong but I'd be surprised.

Which could be for any number of reasons that aren't about being a marketing ploy.

teams can now talk to their players to see if they'll be comfortable sharing a locker room with a gay teamate. He wants to bring his boyfriend along with him like many players do with their spouses/family to meet with teams. I'm just spitballing ideas. Or he could just have decided that now was the best time for him. I don't know his though process.
