What most of the sports world saw on Sunday afternoon when the New York Giants squared off against the now 14-0 Carolina Panthers was one of the most promising young players in the NFL completely lose his cool.
Odell Beckham Jr. and Panthers’ cornerback Josh Norman engaged in heated altercations both physically and verbally from pretty much the start of the game. Those actions culminated in Beckham’s helmet-to-helmet hit on Norman at the end of a play that earned the star wide receiver a one-game suspension.
What most of us didn’t see, or know of, was Beckham’s side to the story, which was revealed yesterday after the suspension was handed down by the league.
