While Sam hasn’t officially announced the engagement, some social media activity suggests him and his boyfriend are indeed tying the knot. One of Cammisano’s friends congratulated the couple on Twitter, prompting Sam to favorite the tweet, which one clearly could construe as confirmation.

Sam and Cammisano began dating at the University of Missouri, where Sam became one of the nation’s premier college football players. Sam revealed he was gay while playing at Missouri and later was drafted by the St. Louis Rams in the seventh round of the 2014 NFL draft. Sam and Cammisano famously shared a smooch on national television after the defensive end was drafted by the Rams.

Sam has since been cut by the Rams and Dallas Cowboys, but the 25-year-old isn’t giving up on pursuing an NFL career.
