NFL prospect Michael Sam was released from the Dallas Cowboys practice squad Tuesday. Sam spent seven weeks with Dallas after joining their practice squad on September 3rd, just days after being among the final cuts by the St. Louis Rams at the conclusion of the preseason.
Sam, who is a former SEC defensive player of the year, was drafted by the Rams in the seventh round in May, and recorded three sacks for the Rams this preseason.
Following his release Sam took to Twitter:
The official Twitter account of the FXFL, responded to Sam’s Tweets with the following:
It seems as though there is interest on the FXFL side to bring Sam into the FXFL, on his journey back to an NFL roster.
Sam would be a perfect fit in the FXFL, with its developmental format. Sam would also provide for the FXFL a big name that garnered a lot of press in the preseason for being the first openly Gay athlete to play professional football.
With the media this preseason virtually following Sam’s every move, a move to the FXFL would perhaps garner additional media attention for the FXFL, and get more people behind its experimental developmental concept.
And of course, if Sam is successful in his comeback, the FXFL would stand to garner even more attention, for its successful developmental concept.
