Annie Agar probably wishes she could call a timeout right about now.
The popular sports content creator, best known for her NFL and college football meeting skits, is catching serious heat after a post she made during the NFL Draft went viral for all the wrong reasons. What was meant as a joke about Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders ended up lighting up her comment section- and not in a good way.
It’s been a rough few weeks for Agar. Just earlier this month, she revealed she suffered a black eye, a concussion, and a fractured nose after passing out from dehydration at home. After a tough recovery, she bounced back just in time for the big event in Green Bay. But now, instead of celebrating the draft, she’s facing a wave of backlash that shows no signs of cooling down.
Fan Reactions Pour In After Draft Day Post

Before Day 2 of the NFL Draft, Annie Agar posted a photo with the caption, “made it to day 2, just like Shedeur,” sparking immediate outrage from fans.
One fan wrote, “Absolute violence out of you Annie”
While another said, “Kind of a tasteless joke from an NFL correspondent.”
Others didn’t hold back either. “Basically the @NFL will credential anyone now. This lady literally contributes nothing and nobody would miss her content if it disappeared tomorrow,” another critic tweeted.
Some comments even accused Agar of deeper issues, with one fan asking, “How you beat the racist allegations is beyond me.”
So far, Agar has stayed quiet about the backlash, choosing not to respond on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter. Meanwhile, Shedeur Sanders remains focused on his future, hoping to hear his name called before the draft wraps up.
Whether Agar decides to address the controversy or lets it ride, this episode serves as another reminder of how quickly the internet can turn, especially regarding anything involving young stars like Sanders.
