However several of his followers were able to screen grab the offending tweet which continues to live on on Twitter.
Neither Hamilton nor ESPN have so far acknowledged that he sent the offending post, although he has continued tweeting about football-related matter.
Many users made jokes at Hamilton's expense. 'I think @HamiltonESPN forgot to double check his copy/paste function ...' tweeted NASCAR driver Ryan Ellis.
