Unexpected token

Question

I am iterating through an object and making several requests with items in that object to an API, for fetching data & then sending it to a database. When receiving the data, I am using JSON.parse() to store the json in a variable and sending it to a callback where it is handled and will eventually be sent to a database.

After researching this issue and seeing similar questions here on StackOverflow, I still cannot figure out my issue considering the data from the request is getting parsed fine, but I get the issue a couple minutes after I run my code.

async.forEach(players, function(item, callback) {

        var playerAccountId = (item.accountId).replace(/-/gi, '');
        var kills = item.kills;
        var placement = item.placement;

        let options = {
            url: "https://fortnite-api.theapinetwork.com/prod09/users/public/br_stats_v2?user_id=" + playerAccountId,
            method: 'GET',
            headers: {
                'content-type': 'application/json',
                'Authorization' : 'c825697ee0b871c684332601b46c2b71'
            }
        };

    // -------------------- //

        function requestData(callback) {
            request(options, function(err, res, body) {
                body = body.trim();
                let json = JSON.parse(body);
                let username = json.data.username;
                return callback(username);

            });
        }

        function doSomething(name) { //Send data directly to database from this callback
            //console.log(name);

            var player = {
                "Name": name,
                "Account ID": playerAccountId,
                "Kills": kills,
                "Placement": placement
            }
            console.log(player);

        }
        requestData(doSomething);
    });

After I console.log all the data I get (which is being somewhat parsed correctly considering its being logged), the console gives me the Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0 error a couple minutes after I have ran my code. When I console.log(player), there are no issues and there is an object that is logged for each player.

NOTE: I have created another account for this API so that others can test this issue with a authorization id that is not my actual authorization id.

Error from passing body through callback function and logging it.
