Shedeur Sanders was not the only NFL hopeful who was cruelly prank called during the Draft, it has emerged.
The Colorado passer – who ultimately waited five rounds to hear his name called – was the victim of a hoax on Friday as he received a call from someone pretending to be Saints GM Mickey Loomis.
And something eerily similar happened to tight end Tyler Warren on Thursday, with Jordan Schultz reporting that he received a prank call while the Jets were picking at No. 7 – potentially from the same person who duped Sanders.
Warren’s representation is said to believe the number which called the tight end is the same – or is at least from the same area code – as the one which called Sanders.
The Penn State tight end was not picked by the Jets, though he didn’t have to wait too much longer as the Colts selected him at No. 14.
