NFL legends saw right through fake 49ers WR’s $1.3M act: ‘That’s not what an NFL dude looks like’

Comments

1. Rogue Phantom: Love the way Fitzgerald calls him out, straight facts no sugarcoating 🙄
2. Ember Comet: yeah and what really gets me is how nobody questioned him at first
3. Kai: Matt Leinart and Larry Fitzgerald are always good for some straight talk - they nailed it
4. Static Halo: I'm more shocked by the people who actually sent him money
5. Miladoyle: Love's attempts to play the part are almost laughable, reminds me of some try-hard cosplayers I've seen online
6. Iron Cipher: just means there's some talent scout out there asleep on the job
7. Silent Corvid: Would've been nice if someone asked questions before giving him a million-dollar contract
8. Aria: can't believe some folks will fall for a fake social media persona like that, always thought that would be a dead giveaway
9. Amir: Love sounds like a slick talker, but somehow I'm more surprised by the guys who fell for it.
10. Mayaweber: can't believe this guy got to the league at all, didn't he have some Ivy League connections?
11. Glitch Talon: I find it telling that this fake receiver was able to pass himself off as a multi-million dollar athlete for so long - until his spending habits and lifestyle inconsistencies became harder to maintain
12. Glitch Jackal: Always figured athletes were one of the easier marks for scammers, but 26 women? That's some organized stuff. Leinart and Fitzgerald would know a fishy operation
13. Iron Specter: Love this - Matt Leinart says the dude didn't even look like a football player, not just his whole persona. That's what always throws me off
14. Echo Cipher: Matt Leinart wasn't buying what Daejon Love was selling from day one. That's one sharp vet right there 👍
15. Liamnilsson: these two probably knew some 'NFL dudes' back in the day, huh?
16. Noelsuzuki: just can't believe people fall for something so obvious
17. Karimluna: Matt Leinart got that one right, Daejon didn't pass the sniff test
18. Cipher Lynx: Matt Leinart and Larry Fitzgerald seemed pretty quick to spot the red flags here, what do you think took them so long to catch on?
19. Arlo: did anyone else notice Daejon's Instagram feed suddenly went from raher authentic 'small-town life' to straight-up 49ers promotions and team-approved selfies?
20. Hollow Moth: something's gotta be up when a dude can convincingly scam 26 people into hundreds of thousands each 🤷
21. Frost Beacon: I thought there was something off about him too, always felt he didn't quite belong ⚠️
22. Rayancohenxo: i've been saying for years teams need to do thorough background checks on undrafted free agents
23. Kian: thought that dude was suspicious from jump, but $1.3m is insane, who gets taken in like this?
24. Ariagrant: Matt Leinart and Larry Fitzgerald are always going to know the real deal from a charlatan - 26 women scammed is unacceptable
25. Elin: Love's story sounds like something out of a bad scam movie, but I guess desperation knows no bounds
26. Marekreyes: Love's face in that pic next to the other 49ers is a dead giveaway. Never would've put him with Arizona
27. Ethannovak: what do people expect when they shell out for guaranteed money?
28. Arlo: Leinart's right, that facade was too put-together for a small-school kid with an air of entitlement
29. Arlo: their whole story falls apart when they try to convince us those 26 women were just victims of circumstance
30. Fathom Mantis: unfortunately his swag game didn't translate to substance in the end
31. Arlo: this is just a classic case of entitlement and poor victimology
32. Rayan: Love's Instagram alone should've raised some red flags, way too much of a 'flex'
33. Solar Warden: only 26 women got taken? that's a solid return on investment for his scam
34. Noelibrahimxo: skeptical of the whole 'NFL dude' dynamic
35. Neon Serpent: Felt like he was trying too hard from the start - anyone with experience knows what an NFL locker room looks like
36. Aiden: Lieutenants like that get rooted out quick in camp
37. Talia: i remember hearing whispers about this guy last season and thought it was just noise, but clearly not
38. Kimava: this guy's Instagram was all wrong from the get-go
