 <\/p>\n

The NFL has been accused of doing shady work by pinning the leak of\u00a0Shedeur Sanders<\/a>\u2019 phone number on the\u00a0Atlanta Falcons<\/a>\u00a0and their defensive coordinator, Jeff Ulbrich.<\/p>\n

The league fined the team $250,000, hitting Ulbrich with an additional $100,000 sanction following the prank call that led to Shedeur thinking, albeit only for a few seconds, that he was being drafted by the\u00a0New Orleans Saints<\/a>\u00a0in the second round.<\/p>\n

The NFL has also suggested that the number was sent to a limited number of people per team in a confidential email, and then the Falcons sent it to Ulbrich. However, a report from\u00a0ProFootballTalk<\/a>\u00a0claims that close to 2,000 people had access to the quarterback\u2019s draft-day digits.<\/p>\n

The outlet notes:<\/p>\n

\u201cFirst, think of how ridiculous that sounds. Why would the Falcons, who were never going to draft Sanders (then again . . .), give that information to the team\u2019s defensive coordinator? \u201cHey, Jeff, we\u2019re not going to draft another quarterback (then again . . .), but in case we think you should personally have this phone number.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

<\/em><\/em>PFT is reporting that Ulbrich got the number straight from the league and was one of several people to receive an email with it, as the NFL sent the email to the same group of people who receive the daily transaction report known as the waiver wire.<\/p>\n

According to a high-level source from an NFL team (not Atlanta), each franchise has at least 60 people who receive such communication.<\/p>\n

The league consists of 32 teams, which works out to at least 1,920 per team. So it appears that Ulbrich wasn\u2019t part of a small group or had the number passed down to him, but both he and the organization were unlucky, as his son was recorded during the prank call.<\/p>\n

The publication has also cast some doubt on the official explanation.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a chain of events that would seem to be too convenient or contrived if it happened in a movie or a TV show. And now that the matter has been resolved by the league, there\u2019s no way of knowing whether it\u2019s true and correct that an innocent glance at an open iPad morphed in the literal blink of an eye into a devious plan to prank call Shedeur Sanders.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

<\/div>\n

Is there more to this than is being let on? We may never know. But it does appear that the NFL was keen on distancing itself from leak, even if they had a perp put himself on camera.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
