NFL reporter responds to fake death rumor in hilarious fashion: 'Glitch in the matrix'

An internet rumor swirled last week that a longtime NFL reporter had died at the age of 40.

News of Jane Slater's supposed death on social media, but she was quick to shut it down.

An X user posted a screenshot of a post on Facebook that showed Slater in black and white with the graphic "1980-2025" saying she had died at 40. Slater, 45, was born in 1980, but the years written in the post would mean she died at either age 44 or 45.
