ESPN host mocked for on-air Shedeur Sanders mistake

ESPN host Monica McNutt went viral for making an on-air gaff last week. 

While highlighting an appearance by influencer Andrew "Druski" Desbordes, who was wearing the jersey of former Detroit Lions Hall of Fame running back Barry Sanders, McNutt incorrectly assumed it was the jersey of Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders.

"The jersey, let's get into it, because obviously this ties into one Shedeur Sanders," McNutt said.

"Druski" was quick to correct her by saying, "No, no, no, no, no, no, this is Barry Sanders."

The jersey was being worn backwards with Sanders name front and center with No. 20. However, quarterbacks are not allowed to wear No. 20 as a jersey number in the NFL. Shedeur Sanders has never worn the number either. He currently wears No. 12 for the Browns and wore No. 2 at Colorado and Jackson State.

McNutt's mistake quickly went viral on social media, prompting criticism from many people.
