Another victim of the brutal NFL Draft prank calls has been unveiled after Shedeur Sanders was also targeted.
The cruel acts rocked the league over the weekend as it emerged that Sanders and multiple other draft prospects had their hopes crushed again by savage pranksters.
One day after the callers behind Sanders’ humiliation confessed, it has now emerged that former Texas wide receiver Isaiah Bond also suffered from the heartless act.
Bond had high hopes entering the draft, having once been projected to be a mid-round pick, but amid off-field issues he went undrafted.
And it has now emerged that his misery was compounded when he was tricked into thinking he had finally received the coveted call.
In a clip shared to social media Monday, a young man – reported to be an Alabama fan – was captured allegedly calling Bond.

‘What’s going on?’ asked the prankster, to which the wideout responded: ‘It’s going good, sir. How about yourself?’
‘Pretty good, pretty good. It’s Terry from the Atlanta Falcons,’ the caller claimed.
‘Yes, sir. Nice to meet you,’ Bond responded enthusiastically, before the prankster continued: ‘Nice to meet you too, Isaiah. I’m going to give the phone to (owner) Arthur Blank right now, but we’re going to put the pick in.’
Bond, believing his agonizing wait had come to an end, was ecstatic as he gushed: ‘Yes, sir. That’s good, that’s good, that’s good news. That’s good news. You’re going to ball it, there’s no doubt. I’m coming to work.’
Then, his dream came crashing down as the prankster decided to twist the knife.
‘Roll Tide, Isaiah, Roll Tide,’ he said, referencing Alabama football’s motto.
Bond, still clueless to the cruelty unfolding, echoed the phrase before the cackling caller hung up and left him in the blue. It is currently unclear how the caller obtained Bond’s phone number.
On Sunday, it was revealed that Jax Ulbrich, the son of Atlanta Falcons defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich, has confessed to prank calling quarterback Sanders during the draft.

Sanders revealed following the call that he had gotten a new phone for the sole purpose of the draft with only NFL team executives and front offices having the number.
The man who called Bond was not Jax Ulbrich and it is currently unclear if he is connected to the Falcons defensive coordinator’s son.
Sanders and Bond were not the only victims as it has also been reported that at least four other players were targeted, including Penn State тιԍнт end Tyler Warren, who was ultimately selected by the Indianapolis Colts, and Syracuse quarterback Kyle McCord, who was eventually taken in the sixth round with the 181st pick by the Philadelphia Eagles.
Bond played his first two seasons at Alabama before transferring to the Longhorns last offseason. At the time, he claimed he mad the move to improve his draft stock but that didn’t come to fruition last week.
All 32 NFL franchises pᴀssed over the Georgia native after a turbulent few months off the field for Bond.
Bond turned himself into police in Frisco, Texas over a matter related to an outstanding warrant for Sєxual ᴀssault earlier this month. Bond posted bond and was released.
He denied the allegations and issued a blistering retort, filing a federal complaint against his accuser.
His agent, Damien Butler, sent an email to all 32 teams in the NFL, which branded the allegations false and defamatory, according to Ian Rapoport.

‘Earlier this evening, Isaiah’s attorneys at Nesenhoff & Miltenberg, LLP filed the attached complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas in response to the false allegation of Sєxual ᴀssault and defamatory statements made against him,’ Butler wrote, attaching the first page of Bond’s complaint.
‘Unlike the false narrative that has been amplified, the truth, once revealed in its entirety, will show that he was targeted by a woman eight years his senior, relentlessly pursued, enticed by explicit pH๏τos & videos and ultimately setup for financial gain.
‘Isaiah, like most twenty-one-year-olds, must show a higher level of discernment in social media interactions and access, however, he is completely innocent of the allegations levied against him and will fight to clear his name. For Clubs that still feel his elite talent can help them win games for the next decade, he is eager to get back on the gridiron where he feels most at home.’
Bond continuously maintained his innocence, calling for a chance to defend himself against the ‘patently false’ allegations.
‘Regarding the accusation made against me, I would appreciate the time and opportunity to defend myself and prove the claims made, patently false,’ read a statement shared following his release.
‘I am in full cooperation with the authorities and will remain a willing and active participant in the investigation. Unfortunately, claims like these prove to be harmful to all involved, absent full review. I kindly request that all reserve judgement until the authorities provide a complete report based on truth and evidence.’
Despite his insistence, no team was seemingly prepared to give him a chance. He could still be signed as an undrafted free agent, however.
