Kirk cousins gay

Kirk Cousins, then-backup quarterback for Washington, said he would welcome an openly gay teammate. However, there was also a bunch of anti-gay nonsense that he likely wouldn’t utter about any other demographic.

At the period, he also said he would aim to lead him to Jesus, saying, “nobody’s perfect.” Because, apparently, when he’s asked about gay people, imperfection is the first thing that comes to mind.

Here is what Cousins said at the time to MLive:

“From a football standpoint, if the guy can support us win, arrive help us triumph. Now, there are a lot of teammates in my locker room right now who may not have a homosexual lifestyle, but they have sins, too. They’re not perfect. So I don’t say they can’t help us win. Nobody’s perfect. To that degree, we’d welcome him into our locker room and speak come help us win, and hopefully I can verb him like Jesus and hopefully demonstrate him what it means to shadow Jesus.”

To that degree, we’d welcome him into our locker room and say, Arrive help us beat, and hopefully I can love him like Jesus and hopefully show him what it means to follow Jesus.”

Here’s to hoping that before Kirk shows any of his teammates what it means to pursue Jesus, he figures it out for himself.
