The NFL is investigating whether questions asked to LSU running back Derrius Guice at the combine were inappropriate.

Guice Lane Taylor Jersey , projected as one of the top running backs in this draft, told Sirius XM Radio that one team asked if he was gay and another club asked if his mother "sells herself."

While not confirming that it had evidence yet that such questions were asked of Guice, the league released a statement Thursday deploring any such queries.

"A question such as that is completely inappropriate and wholly contrary to league workplace policies," the NFL statement said.

"The NFL and its clubs are committed to providing equal employment opportunities to all employees in a manner that is consistent with our commitment to diversity and inclusion, state and federal laws and the CBA. We are looking into the matter.

"The league annually reminds clubs of these workplace policies that prohibit personnel from seeking information concerning a player's sexual orientation."
