Pat McAfee Show Airs AI-Altered Photo of Lorenzo Styles Sr. During Combine Segment

Overview

• During a March 2 segment on the Styles brothers, The Pat McAfee Show displayed a synthetic image depicting Lorenzo Styles Sr. as far larger than in reality.
• Awful Announcing and Yahoo Sports reported the picture was an AI-generated alteration of a 2023 Ohio State Alumni Magazine photo.
• Pat McAfee reacted on air to the exaggerated image, exclaiming, "He don’t play, either!", before the image’s inauthenticity was widely flagged online.
• Reporters noted the altered version appears to have circulated from the Adam Ferrell account on X, though the show’s exact sourcing has not been confirmed.
• There has been no widely reported on-air clarification from the program, as interest in the Styles family surged following standout NFL Combine performances by Lorenzo Jr. and Sonny.
