Michael Sam Uses Twitter To Announce His Engagement To Long-Time Boyfriend
Michael Sam, who made history by being the first openly gay man drafted by the NFL in 2014, announced his engagement to long-time boyfriend Vito Cammissano this week in an Instagram photo.
Sam then tweeted the photo.

Sam and his now-fiance made headlines last year when the two shared a loving kiss during the news of the NFL draft.
The kiss was nationally broadcast on ESPN and was met with both criticism and support.
Sam proposed in Vatican City, a move that TMZ calls "an act of defiance" given the Catholic Church's views on same-sex marriage.
Cammissano soon sent out a tweet of his own:
