This week, Shedeur arrived in Cleveland and made an impromptu visit to a local high school.
However, ESPN Cleveland radio host Aaron Goldhammer had a problem with a member of Sanders’ support staff, Hellion “Boog Knight, for posting clips of the quarterback’s recent trip.
Goldhammer questioned the promotion of Sanders’ visit and the way it was portrayed.
“I would have preferred that he was going to go talk to a bunch of high school kids that he didn’t post it on social media five seconds after the thing was over,” Goldhammer said on Thursday’s episode of The Really Big Show.

“… I felt like it was him screaming, ‘See, look at how good of a person I am.
“I went to a school, then I worked out.
“I’m doing all the right things.”
Well, Knight responded to Goldhammer’s comments on social media.
The head of operations for Young Money APAA Sports replied to a clip of the Cleveland radio host’s remarks, labeling the opinion as “spewed hate.”
“Shedeur did NOT post anything! I posted it,” Knight wrote Thursday.
“He didn’t ask me, or anyone else to post anything.
“Nor did he ask for a hundred cameras to be on him upon his entrance into the school.
“This isn’t his first school visit.
“He’s done MANY, in various cities & states.
“This is just spewed hate.”

Knight also tagged Goldhammer while posting numerous videos of Sanders making similar visits in recent years.
He is also the co-host of Sanders’ former Colorado teammate and No. 2 overall pick, Travis Hunter’s podcast.
It’s believed that Sanders, once thought to be a first-round prospect, fell to the No. 144 overall pick due to his off-the-field traits.
It was also reported that teams weren’t pleased with his pre-NFL Draft interviews.
It’s not known what Knight’s exact role within the Sanders camp is, but he seems to be connected to those close to the 23-year-old
