The video showed the words, “football is gay”, “football is lesbian”, “football is beautiful”, “football is strange”, “football is exciting”, “football is transgender”, “football is bisexual”, “football is power”, “football is American”, “football is accepting” and “football is everything”, among other messages in the clip.
Bryant, who spent most of his NFL career with the Dallas Cowboys, expressed his frustration with the announcement.
“Football is gay. Football is strange. Soccer is transgender … These are wild statements to do … Sorry for my nonsense,” Bryant wrote in X. “I will proudly say that my children’s football is nothing of these things. I have nothing against gays, but this is far from being correct.”

The publication of Bryant’s social networks caused debate and defended himself fiercely.
“They are homosexual players in the NFL … but forcing it in people’s faces … especially children … They can send the wrong message … football is a real community, like the gay community. Imagine telling gays that they have to advocate for heterosexual people … they would probably have a problem,” he added.
Several NFL teams fired messages for the month of pride on social networks on Sunday.
