But the "distraction" he would bring is because he is gay, you can't disassociate the two. This is ridiculous for two reasons; one, it implies the most blatant homophobia possible, and two, it implies that talent does not outweigh his being gay.
This is not just on Dungy; it's the entire NFL. DeAndre Hopkins covered his combine hotel room in shit and piss, which to me makes him certifiably insane. Shit and piss!!! He was drafted 27th overall.
The SEC defensive player of the year should've gone higher than he did. Only one other SEC defensive player of the year was drafted outside the top 33, Chad Lavalais from LSU. Absurd.
