On September 1, 2026, Megyn Kelly reported that Dejan Love, 35, allegedly posed as a San Francisco 49ers wide receiver, sometimes claiming a relation to Packers quarterback Jordan Love, to romance women and take their money, with an 18-year-old accomplice, Taylor Chan. Federal authorities have since arrested Daejon Love for allegedly stealing more than $1 million from two dozen women. About $1.3 million moved through accounts tied to the alleged scheme. Love's fabricated online presence led search engines and AI to sometimes identify him as a real 49ers player. No court dates have been reported.
