NFL:(Video) Funny Man & Former NFL Player Terry Crews Compares Gay Players To The Military?
Who doesn’t love Terry Crews. You look at him and think he is a tough guy, and instead he is one of the funniest dudes you might meet. Don’t get it twisted though. If someone was to disrespect him, they would surely be getting their ass beat.

TMZ caught up with him to ask his opinion on a gay NFL player coming out and Crews makes some really good points, but overall you can tell he would support a player being who they really are. Check out his interview after the jump.
