Ashton Jeanty part of NFL Draft prank calling scandal

The NFL Draft is supposed to be a memorable time for prospects, with one of the most notable moments being when they hear their phone ring from the team they will soon be drafted to.

However, some pranksters took advantage of the opportunity by calling prospects and spreading false information about what was going on. The most notable incident took place with new Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders, who was called by Atlanta Falcons defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich’s son Jax posing as New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis (both team and coach were heavily fined as a result of the incident). Other high-profile draft prospects, such as Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren and Browns defensive tackle Mason Graham, were also confirmed to have been prank-called during the draft.

Now, it appears as though Las Vegas Raiders Ashton Jeanty can also add his name to that list.

Jeanty revealed the details of his prank call during an interview.

During an interview with FanSided, Jeanty shared that he was also prank-called during the draft, but he was quick to deduce it and hung up.

“Some dude was like, yea you just got traded from the Raiders to the Cowboys and I just hung up bro,” Jeanty said.
