NFL prospect Michael Sam is in the spotlight for his lifestyle as he is the first openly-gay player to enter the draft. However, the former Missouri Tigers standout has a message that he wants to get across to the National Football League—and everybody else.

In a new Visa commercial, Sam tells the world how he wants to be judged. Now, he must wait for a team to take a chance on him and let him show what can he do on the football field.
