Former New York Giants WR Odell Beckham Jr. won’t have battery case pursued

On Monday night, the LSU Tigers emerged victorious in the College Football Playoff National Championship. In attendance for the game was Odell Beckham Jr. The former New York Giant and current Cleveland Browns wideout played for the Tigers from 2011-13 and thus celebrated with his former school in their Superdome locker room.

In the midst of the celebration, OBJ decided to slap a present Superdome police officer on the rear end. This then led to a warrant issued for Beckham’s arrest for simple battery on Thursday.

But now, the New Orleans police department has made it clear that the officer “has decided to drop the charge,” per Mike Triplett of ESPN.
