came out as gay in an Instagram video last June. “I just wanted to take a quick moment to say that I’m gay,” he said in the video. “I’ve been meaning to do this for a while now but finally feel comfortable getting it off my chest.

I really have the best life, the best family, friends, and job a guy can ask for. I’m a pretty private person, so I hope you guys know that I’m not doing this for attention.

The Raiders will save his $7.75 million base salary, which NFL.com reports hasn’t been justified by his performance. His release was covered by several outlets, including ESPN and NFL Network.His salary “was too rich for a player who played just 242 defensive snaps and earned 1.5 sacks last season,” NFL.com notes.
