Atlanta — On Monday, former University of Alabama defensive tackle Luther Davis pleaded guilty in federal court to conspiracy to commit wire fraud and aggravated identity theft after prosecutors say he impersonated NFL players during 2024 video calls by wearing makeup, wigs and head coverings to deceive investors and obtain fraudulent loans. Prosecutors said the scheme, carried out with co-defendant CJ Evins, generated nearly twenty million dollars from at least 13 fraudulent loans used to buy real estate, jewelry and cars; a court filing last month stated none of the NFL players authorized the loans, and sentencing dates have not been scheduled this week.
