The National Football League is investigating whether draft prospect Nick Kasa was questioned about his sexual orientation during a recent skills audition for NFL scouts and coaches, a spokesman said Wednesday.
Kasa, who played tight end at the University of Colorado, told CNN earlier Wednesday that during the audition, he was asked: "Do you have a girlfriend? Are you married? Do you like girls?"
"Any team or employee that inquires about impermissible subjects or makes an employment decision based on such factors is subject to league discipline," said Greg Aiello of the NFL.
League policy states that teams "neither consider nor inquire about sexual orientation in the hiring process," Aiello said. "In addition, there are specific protections in our collective bargaining agreement with the players that prohibit discrimination against any player, including on the basis of sexual orientation."

Well, apparently that NFL scout didn't get that particular memo.
Maybe the scout was asking for himself, hmm?
lol...so gross...maybe he tryna let dah man know on the down low what's gonna be waitin' for him in the locker room...
Of course he likes girls: he's a football player.
No red-bloodied Amurcun wants to watch a football game and think that out there on the field there might be a–well, a man who"s not a man, if U git my drift.
For a reply, he should have popped of with "Like Brent Musburger?"
