Odell Beckham Jr. was escorted off a flight from Miami to Los Angeles on Sunday morning.
According to FOX Sports Radio’s Andy Slater, the free agent wide receiver was escorted the plane because he was in and out of consciousness.
Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network obtained a police report stating that the “flight crew was concerned for (Beckham)” while “fearing that (he) was seriously ill” after “they tried to wake him to fasten his seat belt (and) he appeared to be coming in and out of consciousness.”
Beckham allegedly refused to leave the plane. His refusal forced the plane to be emptied and the flight to be delayed.

Shortly after the news broke, Beckham appeared to address the situation in a tweet that read, “Never in my life have I experienced what just happened to me. I’ve seen it all.”
“I could never make this up,” OBJ added in another tweet, before referring to the incident as “comedy hour.”
The news arrives just two weeks after OBJ filed a lawsuit against Nike, saying the Oregon-based conglomerate “screwed him out of millions.”
