NFL account hacked, tweets Roger Goodell died

Share

The NFL’s Twitter account was hacked and tweeted that Roger Goodell died...

Uh, what!? Before the tweet was deleted it read, "We regret to inform our fans that our commissioner, Roger Goodell, has passed away. He was 57. #RIP"

The hacker wasn't done though. They tweeted, "Oi, I said Roger Goodell has died. Don't delete that tweet," though the NFL quickly deleted that one too.

By this point Adam Schefter sent out a tweet verifying that Goodell is indeed alive and breathing, so the hacker admitted this was obviously just a prank.

"OK, OK, you amateur detectives win. Good job," the hacker tweeted.

We all knew it was a fake from the start though. Roger Goodell is already dead on the inside, so he can't die ... right?
