Stoked about the gift, he sent a tweet of the unopened package to his 750,000 followers, writing, "What a nice treat this morning waiting for me at my locker. What can it be? #UCF"
Turns out it was a snazzy new UCF T-shirt! So Marshall, ever the gracious gift receiver, promptly shared a follow-up tweet featuring a photo of himself modeling the new threads.
There was, however, one problem: a butt-naked teammate pulling on some knickers over Marshall's left shoulder.
You can see a cropped version of the full-moon photobomb above, although we've covered the unnamed teammate's nether regions with with a Mashable "M." Not surprisingly, the uncensored version has received wide distribution on the Internet.
Marshall quickly realized his mistake, deleting the photo and tweeting an apology:
Sorry about my guy in the back getting dressed in that photo.— Brandon Marshall (@BMarshall) November 14, 2012
