Mike Greenberg Made Embarrassing Mistake During NFL Draft

As ESPN was showing Boston celebrate with his family, Greenberg tried to connect the dots for fans watching at home.

"There you are, Mel. That's another player who you were waiting to hear his name called," Greenberg said. "You remember his dad, David Boston, first-round pick out of Ohio State in 1999."

There's just one issue with Greenberg's commentary: David and Denzel aren't related despite sharing the same last name.

NFL ripped Mike Greenberg for this mistake.

Greenberg, who has hosted ESPN's coverage of the draft six times in his career, received plenty of backlash for this blunder.

"How Greenberg has a job is beyond me," one fan wrote on social media.

"Greeny has zero business doing anything other than being a traffic cop on debate shows," a second fan added.

"You of course remember his dad, the city of Boston, the birthplace of America, home of Paul Revere and the fictional Johnny Tremain, the maimed silversmith apprentice," a social media user sarcastically commented.

"Greeny just assuming because they’re both receivers with the last name Boston that they must be father and son," another fan wrote.

We'll see if Greenberg issues an apology to the Boston family later in the draft.
