NFL Superstar and Superbowl champion Brendon Ayanbedejo has added his name to the list of celebrities who have signed on to the NOH8 Campaign in support of gay marriage. This isn’t Ayanbadejo’s first time rallying in the fight for gay rights. In 2009 he wrote a Huffington Post blog titled “Same-Sex Marriages: What’s the Big Deal?” which you can view HERE.

Peep footage below of his interview with Anderson Cooper where he speaks on his advocacy and his thoughts on if more NFL players will be courageous enough to come out of the closet.
