This story is a credit to @D_Bo20 and the Robinson Family. They want to tell you about Eli. They're hoping it helps others.
It's worth remembering: “Maybe we can all be a little less certain about knowing what someone is going through."

Matt Miller has worked for ESPN since 2021, becoming a key figure in the network’s NFL Draft coverage.
But over the past two months, his image began to crack.
Dozens of social media posts accused him of stiffing the winners of fantasy football leagues he ran, leagues he billed as benefiting charities.
The public outcry prompted an investigation by the Missouri Attorney General’s Office, which has received more than two dozen complaints.
