Overview
- Zac Jackson of The Athletic said he received identical harassment via DM and an email titled “BIGOT” about his coverage of rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders.
- The sender identified themself as “Sheila Anderson” and claimed to be Josina Anderson’s sister, while the messages included personal attacks and racially charged language.
- Jackson publicly suggested on his podcast that Anderson was inciting such messages, then later said he probably should not have shared them and would take the episode down.
- Anderson posted on X that the claim is categorically false, stated she has no sister named Sheila Anderson, and said she would handle the matter with appropriate action.
- The dispute plays out as Cleveland continues evaluating Sanders at quarterback, with separate TikTok comments from Dillon Gabriel’s fiancée asserting that “everyone in the building” wants Gabriel to play.
