Photo: Don't be fooled by Tennessee WR's sweet Harambe helmet sticker
Count Tennessee junior receiver Josh Malone as the latest player to throw his support behind the deceased gorilla Harambe. Malone was seen rocking this gorilla sticker with the letter “H” on his practice helmet this week in Knoxville:

Or was he?
Unfortunately Malone did not give a clear shout-out to the worst’s most famous gorilla, as the gorilla helmet sticker is actually a fake. If the color of the orange in the sticker didn’t give it away, here’s the original photo:

While Malone may not have honored the memory of Harambe this week in practice, former Kentucky (now Boston College) quarterback Patrick Towles went much further this week. Towles dedicated his season to the realist gorilla there ever was:
Rest in peace Harambe, your memory will live on this fall if Towles manages to see the field for the Eagles this season.
