LSU’s Derrius Guice said in a radio appearance this week that his team interviews at the recently concluded combine were “pretty crazy,” and that “some people are really trying to get in your head and test your reaction.” 
 
 “I go in one room, and a team will ask me do I like men, just to see my reaction,” Guice said Wednesday on SiriusXM Radio (via USA Today). How do you feel about that?’ ” 
 
 Pro Football Talk cited “a source with knowledge of the situation” who confirmed that “the question was asked” about Guice’s sexuality. Questions along these lines are always inappropriate.” 
 
 NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said the league was “looking into the matter.” In a statement provided to The Washington Post, he added, “A question such as that is completely inappropriate and wholly contrary to league workplace policies. Is he expecting the guy to get out of his chair and start screaming, ‘No, I’m a heterosexual!’?” 
 
 Human Rights Campaign’s director of public education and research, Ashland Johnson, called the question to Guice “absurd and inappropriate” in a statement, adding that in light of similar incidents, “it’s clear that the NFL did not do enough to prevent it from happening again.” 
 
 In 2013, after Colorado tight end Nick Kasa claimed that he was asked at the combine, “Do you like girls?” Smith said, “I know that the NFL agrees that these types of questions violate the law, our CBA and player rights.” 
 
 NFL teams have been known to use their interviews with prospects as ad hoc psychological exams as much as anything else, and they have asked questions meant to be deliberately provocative. It’s a question that keeps getting asked of incoming players, regardless of how many times the fact that it was asked leads to a supposedly increased awareness regarding the importance of not asking questions like this.
– LSU running back Derrius Guice says he faced some extremely inappropriate questions from teams during the NFL Scouting Combine this week. "It was pretty crazy," told SiriusXM, per USA Today. "I go in one room, and a team will ask me do I like men, just to see my reaction. I go in another room, they'll try to bring up one of my family members or something and tell me, 'Hey, I heard your mom sells herself. How do you feel about that?’" A source confirms to Pro Football Talk that Guice, one of the top running backs in this year's draft, was asked about his sexuality during the combine. NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy says the league is investigating, as it did when Nick Kasa said he was asked if he liked girls during the 2013 combine. "A question such as that is completely inappropriate and wholly contrary to league workplace policies," McCarthy said in a statement to the Washington Post. "The league annually reminds clubs of these workplace policies that prohibit personnel from seeking information concerning a player’s sexual orientation." DeMaurice Smith, executive director of the NFL Players Association, says the team involved, which has yet to be identified, should be banned from the combine.
