Collin Martin

Is it conceivable that, of 4,592 active athletes in major US men's pro sports, there are no gay or bi players? The answer is obvious.

The North Carolina FC midfielder, who made history when he came out in pro soccer in 2018, says there is likely to be more 'curious' players than 'full-on' gay players.

Martin, one of the few out gay athletes in U.S. men’s pro sports, is leaving San Diego for Raleigh and will continue to play in the USL Championship.

For the first time, pro baseball, basketball, football, hockey and soccer has an out gay male athlete under contract.

Collin Martin is the second openly gay player in the history of Major League Soccer, coming out with the Minnesota United.
