At least two rookies taking part in the NFL's annual scouting combine have said that some teams asked them about their sexual orientation. The league itself has promised to investigate, even as executives from at least two other teams have expressed interest in knowing more about the sexuality of Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o, who made headlines earlier this year after being caught up in a girlfriend hoax scandal involving a friend who has admitted to being gay.

Brian Baxter writes for The Am Law Daily, a Daily Report affiliate.
