Defensive Lineman Carl Nassib of the Las Vegas Raiders came out yesterday in a social media post, and he donated $100K to the Trevor Project. He says he did it because “representation and visibility are so important.”
The ability to live an authentic life is so important.
Sending love and support to Carl Nassib of the @Raiders, who has bravely made history as the 1st active NFL player to come out. He has also donated $100K to @TrevorProject.
Representation and visibility matter! 🏳️🌈 https://t.co/E6hSOeIioW
