What happened
A Chicago Bears fan account tweeted that Sonny Weaver Jr., the fictional Cleveland Browns GM from the film 'Draft Day,' was fired one year after trading three first-round and three second-round picks for an off-ball linebacker and running back. The post claims no NFL team will hire him, forcing a pivot to draft analyst like Dane Brugler or Daniel Jeremiah. No real-world confirmation; appears satirical.
