On Wednesday, the folks at Awful Announcing posted a thorough and detailed look at the scrutiny that has arisen in the days following the revelation that ESPN draft analyst Matt Miller recently was involved in a serious car accident. On Thursday, a surprising update emerged.
Via Sam Neumann of Awful Announcing, the Missouri Attorney General has opened an investigation of Miller.
After Miller disclosed on Twitter the horrific injuries he suffered, including the amputation of his left arm, his family started a GoFundMe effort. That sparked a litany of online complaints about Miller’s handling of fantasy football leagues, paid scouting lessons, and charitable efforts.
Ben Koo and Brendon Kleen of Awful Announcing have spoken “to at least seven people” who said they paid entry fees for charity fantasy leagues Miller ran, with buy-ins as high as $500, “only to find him unreachable when it came time to collect winnings or confirm where the charitable portion of the money had gone.” Koo and Kleen have since heard from more than 40 others with similar complaints.
Miller reportedly ran 91 fantasy leagues during the 2025 NFL season.
The Missouri Attorney General’s Office is seeking complaints directly. The latest Awful Announcing story has both the number to call and the link to a complaint form.
Through it all, neither Miller nor ESPN have commented.
The entire situation is sad. But Miller’s injuries don’t absolve him of any potential irregularities arising from the many complaints that have coalesced in the aftermath of the GoFundMe campaign.
