Oprah Winfrey hasn’t written off Michael Sam after all … with her OWN Network announcing they will air a 90-minute special on the football star later this month … plus a sit-down interview.
Initially, Sam was reportedly supposed to be a part a docuseries — just like the network did with Lindsay Lohan.
But after a MAJOR backlash from the NFL community, the project was called off. Sam was recently cut by the Dallas Cowboys and is currently a free agent.
Unclear if Sam’s employment status contributed to the network’s decision to run a special … which is set to air on December 27th.
OWN says Oprah will sit-down with Sam to discuss everything that has unfolded since the NFL Draft.
