Carl Nassib made NFL history Monday as the first active player to come out as gay.
And in less than 24 hours since the Las Vegas Raiders defensive end’s announcement, evidence suggests he’s being embraced by the league — and probably bringing entirely new fans to the sport.
According to the sports merchandise brand Fanatics, the NFL’s official e-commerce partner, Nassib’s has been the top-selling jersey since posting a video to his personal Instagram account, per ESPN.
The Raiders, NFL commissioner Roger Gooddell and players around the league have stepped up to show support for Nassib, helping him achieve his goal of fostering an atmosphere of acceptance.
Props to fans for doing the same.
