Several players received such calls

New York Giants’ rookie Abdul Carter is the latest player known to have received a prank phone call during the draft. Carter’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus, said Carter received a call telling him he was about to be selected with the Jacksonville Jaguars on the clock at No. 2.

“It’s unfortunate that these private numbers are getting to the people making the prank calls, said Carter’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus. “Abdul and I knew it was bs and didn’t even tell his family about the call.”

The NFL has fined the Atlanta Falcons $250,000 and defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich $100,000 on Wednesday after Ulbrich’s son, Jax, made a prank call to now-Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders during the NFL draft.

Other players who received prank calls during the draft include the Browns’ Mason Graham, the Indianapolis Colts’ Tyler Warren, the Philadelphia Eagles’ Kyle McCord and the Buffalo Bills’ Chase Lundt.

The NFL is continuing to investigate the prank calls made to players other than Sanders.
