After the call was disconnected and Sanders realized that it was a farce, he explained to his family and friends during his party, the phone was linked to a private number
“No one has this number but the coaches, strictly for this reason,” said Sanders.
If it is true, the NFL wants to know how someone apart from a coach, executive or a team player had access to the number and was able to call Sanders. The league investigates the issue, a spokesperson Mike Florio told Pro Football Talk.
