ATLANTA (AP) — The Atlanta Falcons said Sunday that defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich's son was responsible for a prank call made to Cleveland Browns draft pick Shedeur Sanders.
The Falcons released a statement saying 21-year-old Jax Ulbrich “unintentionally came across the draft contact phone number for Shedeur Sanders off an open iPad while visiting his parent’s home and wrote the number down to later conduct a prank call."
The Falcons said Jeff Ulbrich was unaware of the data exposure or the prank until after the fact.
Sanders, a standout quarterback from Colorado, is the son of Buffaloes coach and Pro Football Hall of Famer Deion Sanders, who began his NFL career with the Falcons.
