Dr Disrespect's sudden NFL appearance leaves football fans puzzled
Most 49ers fans had no idea who the popular streamer was.
By virtually every metric, Herschel ‘Dr Disrespect’ Beahm is one of the most popular streamers out there – though seemingly not all that recognizable to most people attending Saturday’s NFC wild-card game.
During the San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks game, Beahm appeared on stage to hype the audience up – insisting they scream at the top of their lungs. Of course, there were some cheers, but most people in attendance didn’t seem to know who Beahm was. At least, that’s the impression we’ve got from the lukewarm reaction – check out the video below to see what we mean.

In fairness, he still had fans in the audience – several of which have uploaded footage that highlights a slightly warmer reception. ‘Slightly’ is the keyword here.

At least his custom 49ers jersey is pretty slick!
These days, Beahm is strictly a streamer on YouTube. He was massive on Twitch for many years until a lawsuit between both parties forced him to leave the platform forever.
Beahm, a former Call of Duty developer, formed his own AAA studio in 2021 called Midnight Society, which is currently making the Escape From Tarkov-like extraction shooter Deadrop.
