The NFL recently reached an agreement for Bud Light to sponsor the NFL Draft - after news broke that the beer company hired a transgender activist to be one of its spokespersons. 

While it comes as no surprise that the NFL would partner with a company that has sold out for the progressive agenda (as the league has done far too many times), not everyone within the league believes transgenderism - at least in sports - should be supported.

At a pre-draft conference, Detroit Lions General Manager Brad Holmes risked his reputation by wearing a t-shirt that had “Support Women And Girls In Sports” inscribed on the front.

Holmes was not questioned as to why he was wearing the shirt or to dive into its message any further, but the point he made was clear: he believes women should be given their own space to compete without being forced to share that space with men.

Riley Gaines - an outspoken critic of transgenders involvement in sports - thanked the coach for his support of biological women.

Holmes wore the shirt on the same day that Congress passed a bill that would prevent the rights of Title IX from being extended to transgenders at federally funded institutions, effectively ensuring that women at these schools wouldn't have to compete against men.
