Odell Beckham Jr. Removed From Flight by Miami-Dade Police, per Report

Free agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. was kicked off a flight headed from Miami to Los Angeles on Sunday morning, the Miami-Dade Police Department announced. Beckham allegedly didn’t have his seat belt fastened and slipped in and out of consciousness when the crew tried to get him to buckle up, causing the flight to be delayed and eventually requiring everyone on the flight to deboard.

“The flight crew was concerned that a passenger (Mr. Odell Beckham Jr.) as they tried to wake him to fasten his seat belt, he appeared to be coming in and out of consciousness, prior to their departure,” the department said in a statement, via NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.
