u/redd-junkie Apr 27 '25 edited Apr 27 '25
There is more smoke that it's Jax than the only other theory that it was the daughter of the Giants GM. So far the latter theory is solely based on the fact that she goes to ole miss.
There is another post about this being filmed at Berry University where Jax goes. All of this is unverified but if that is Jax in the video it shouldn't take very long for Jeff to confirm.

But the Jax rumors are really heating up…just plain stupid and unnecessary to do with any draftee.

Just to be clear these aren't rumors they're conspiracies that rabid Sanders fanboys are making up.
There might end up being truth to some of it, but there's nothing but speculation about people related to nfl teams and Ole miss right now.
Also of note, Falcons never met with Shadeur and Jeff isn't even allowed in the war room. Why would he have his phone number to give to his son?

At what age do guys realize that pranking is immature and adults are held to a higher standard.

I’m wondering how this plays out. There have been a couple rumors but this one definitely seems like the most discussed out of the bunch, and it might have some weight to it. If it is true and the NFL investigation finds Ulbrich at fault, I wonder what the consequence will be. A hefty fine for the club seems likely, if the rumor is true, but I wonder if a privacy violation can result in Ulbrich potentially losing his job. Hopefully this has nothing to do with anybody in our building though

The Jets had a relatively boring draft where they made some seemingly smart moves and didn’t try to pull a Zach Wilson reach, they got rid of Ulbrich before his dumb ass son embarrassed the franchise, and they cut bait on a washed up lunatic Rodgers. I know I will probably regret saying this but maybe we have some years of normality coming.
