Odell Beckham Jr. Kicked off plane after reportedly ‘coming in and out of consciousness’

OBJ is not flying so high today.

The Free-agent wide receiver was kicked off a plane Sunday after the flight crew reportedly observed him “coming in and out of consciousness,” according to Miami-Dade police.

The crew feared Beckham was seriously ill after trying to wake him to put on his seatbelt, and that his condition would worsen during the flight, so they called for police and a fire crew. Beckham reportedly would not leave the flight when asked by the crew, leading to the entire plane being evacuated. Beckham left the plane without incident when police arrived, per the statement.

Beckham’s attorney released a statement late Sunday saying Beckham was sleeping, which is why he did not comply with the flight crew at first. Beckham eventually woke up and reportedly stated he would comply, but was told it was too late. Beckham’s attorney blamed an “overzealous flight attendant” who, “wanted to prove that he had the authority to have Mr. Beckham removed from the flight” for the disturbance.

The flight was reportedly going from Miami to Los Angeles, but Beckham was taken off the plane before it departed.

Early Sunday, Beckham sent out multiple cryptic tweets suggesting something out of the ordinary happened to him.

I COULD NEVER MAKE THIS UP.
