Eric Jackson, a fan of Colorado football, is suing the NFL for $100 million, claiming emotional distress after Shedeur Sanders dropped to the fifth round of the draft. The lawsuit alleges possible violations of the Sherman Antitrust Act and Civil Rights Act, accusing the NFL of colluding and misrepresenting player qualifications. Jackson argues that slanderous statements about Sanders affected his reputation, contributing to his own emotional trauma. He also seeks formal acknowledgment from the NFL regarding the distress caused and a retraction of harmful statements made against Sanders.
Reports and leaked statements suggested that Sanders 'tanked interviews,' 'wasn't prepared,' and 'was too cocky,' which contributed to a narrative that has unjustly harmed his reputation and potential.
Jackson filed the case as a John Doe but revealed his identity by indicating he was representing himself, describing himself as 'a dedicated fan of Colorado football.'
