The story of ESPN draft analyst Matt Miller has taken a wild turn. Days after surviving a life-threatening car accident, Miller is being accused of fraud.

Miller’s sister, Caitlin Bever-Miller, created a GoFundMe account to help her brother pay off his medical bills. Meanwhile, NFL analyst Tommy Callahan uploaded screenshots of Reddit conversations that included history involving Miller scamming people by using his fantasy account.

Sleeper ‘charity’ leagues where he allegedly took 50%+ admin cut or never paid winners. … Paid scouting lessons where people sent money upfront and then got little to no response or delivery when it came to schedule. … Annual subscriptions to his scouting sites and newsletters where content stopped but chargers kept coming. Now, the same guy is asking the same audience for money.

Callahan wrote

Callahan received support in the comments.

Twitter user “Rob G” asked Callahan whether Miller’s accident is also fake. Callahan didn’t dismiss the possibility that the accident might have been a suicide attempt.

No, Matt Miller’s sister-in-law started the GoFundMe. His family runs a charity & is likely simply familiar with the process of fundraising. But the reason they are in a position to do so- that is loaded… His accident could have been a suicide attempt.

Callahan replied

Miller also sustained several minor injuries all over his body.

Last week, I was involved in a serious car accident in Missouri and was airlifted to Mercy Hospital. I’m deeply grateful for the exceptional care I have received, from the first responders to the doctors, nurses and medical staff. I’m incredibly fortunate to be writing this. As a result of the accident, I sustained significant injuries, including multiple fractures and broken ribs. I also underwent a life-saving amputation of my left arm. While I have a long road ahead, I’m focused on my recovery and taking things one day at a time.

Matt Miller tweeted

Top NFL media personalities, including Adam Schefter, Ian Rapoport, Mina Kimes, Kay Adams, Emmanuel Acho, and a few others, left “speedy recovery” messages in the comments.

With the tweet, Miller attached a GoFundMe link. More than $50,000 has been raised since the account went live four days ago.

ESPN is aware of Miller’s situation. According to ESPN, Miller joined the company in 2021 as an NFL Draft contributor before returning as a year-round Draft analyst in 2022. A year later, Miller made his on-air NFL Draft debut.
