Kevin Maxen, an associate strength coach with the Jacksonville Jaguars, has become the first male coach in a major U.S.-based professional league to come out as gay. His announcement has been met with support from the NFL and the Jaguars organization, and is a sign of progress for the NFL and the LGBTQ+ community. Maxen said he wanted to be vocal in support of people living how they want to live, but also to just live and not feel fear.
