Summary
Missouri's attorney general said it had received 26 complaints by Wednesday over Matt Miller's charity and fantasy-football activities, after the ESPN analyst was nearly killed in a June 17 crash that led to a paused GoFundMe.
91 fantasy leagues on Sleeper in 2025 could have put about $100,000 in entry fees under Miller's control, and Sleeper banned him on May 7 for allegedly not paying winners, according to support messages reviewed by The Athletic.
Miller, 43, said the $100,000 estimate did not seem accurate, declined to discuss donations because of the active investigation, and said legitimate winners should contact him as he tries to complete payouts.
June 17 became a turning point: Miller's Ford Bronco crossed the center line on Missouri Route 96 and hit a semi, costing him his left arm and triggering a 12-to-18-month recovery that his family initially sought to fund online.
ESPN said Miller is on mutually agreed leave, while the case now reaches beyond unpaid league prizes to questions about whether charity-linked raffles, scholarships and donations were properly handled.
