Odell Beckham Jr. Rips Into Passenger Amid Plane Incident: Watch

by

Odell Beckham Jr. became a topic of conversation a couple of months ago due to a bizarre incident on a flight. As many of you are aware, Odell was removed from an American Airlines flight as he reportedly slept before takeoff. Subsequently, he was asked to put his seatbelt on. However, he couldn’t as he was asleep.

Eventually, they told everyone to get off of the plane, and OBJ was told to find another flight. It was a truly bizarre incident that upset Beckham Jr., and for good reason. He felt as though they had no right to take him off the flight, although he eventually flew private and rectified the situation.

Odell Footage Surfaces

According to TMZ, footage of the incident has surfaced online. This footage comes courtesy of a police body cam, and as you can see, it is quite interesting. It appears as though the flight attendants and passengers made a huge deal out of Odell sleeping. One person can even be heard saying that he took his pants off, which isn’t true. At one point, a passenger told OBJ to just get a move on, which led to some insults from the football star.

“You’re everything wrong with the world,” Beckham said. “Looking at me to get off a plane, for you. I would never. Ever in my life get off the plane for you. Specifically you. Maybe everybody else, I would get off the plane. You gon’ wait 40 minutes and I’m going to be on a private plane home. Yeah, with your fat ass. Get your ass off the plane for a second.”

In the tweets down below, you can see some of the reactions to the footage. For the most part, fans are taking Odell’s side on this one. In fact, many believe that racism is at play here.

“Looks like an innocent man being bothered for no reason to me…” one person wrote. “Flight attendants being extra as hell for no reason. He was sleepy, of course he’d be slow to respond and not thinking straight. All for a seatbelt. Just wake him up,” said another.

Let us know what you think of this situation, in the comments below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more updates from around the sports world.

Lamar Jackson & The Ravens Get Bad News

by

Lamar Jackson is one of the best quarterbacks in the entire NFL when he is healthy. He has a dynamic skill set that even won him MVP of the league a few years ago. Unfortunately, he has yet to have the playoff success one would expect of a superstar.

Additionally, Jackson is now dealing with contract issues that put his future in Baltimore, in jeopardy. Now, however, Jackson is dealing with yet another injury that has ultimately kept him out of the Ravens’ lineup. With the playoffs just a few days away, fans were hoping he would be able to come back.

Lamar Jackson Sidelined Again

According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Jackson missed practice again on Wednesday. Consequently, it is very likely that he will not be able to play this weekend against the Bengals. This is absolutely devastating for the Ravens’ chances, especially with Tyler Huntley missing time as well.

The Bengals have become one of the best teams in the league over the past few weeks. Having said that, the Ravens are going to need a miracle to come out on top here. If you’re a fan of the team, then this Jackson news is truly devastating stuff.

With Jackson going through these injury issues, the Ravens front office will have even less incentive to sign him to guaranteed money. Overall, it is just a bad situation for both parties. Quite frankly, it would not be surprising to see some sort of divorce in the offseason. There are certainly a few teams out there who could use someone like Jackson.

Hopefully, Jackson is able to turn things around and have the career he has the potential to enjoy. In the meantime, stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest news from around the sports world.

Antonio Brown Accuser Claims AB Sent Her Son “Explicit Videos”

by

Antonio Brown was accused of domestic violence back in November. Subsequently, there were reports that Brown was in a standoff with the police. The police had a warrant for his arrest, however, they wanted to do it peacefully as it was believed that AB had guns inside his home.

Since then, the accusations against Brown were dropped. According to TMZ, the accusations were actually made by the mother of his children. It all started on November 27th when she entered his home to be with her kids. Brown got mad at her and immediately kicked everyone out, which led to her calling 911.

Antonio Brown Call Leaked

Now, TMZ has the leaked audio from the 911 call, and there were some wild accusations made. For starters, the woman can be heard yelling at Brown throughout the video. At one point, she says “This is not legal!” She also told Brown to “go inside” and “hide out.”

The most shocking accusation here is that Brown was allegedly sending his son explicit videos. As you will hear, the woman does not specify the content of the videos, although she is clearly upset about it. While the call is quite distressing, it is important to note that the allegations were eventually taken back.

Just days before Christmas, the cops had announced that they were no longer pursuing this case. Overall, it is a bizarre yet unfortunate situation that hopefully sees some sort of peaceful resolution. As for Brown himself, he has not commented on the matter, and it is unlikely that he will.

This is still a developing story, so stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest news and updates from around the sports world. Additionally, let us know what you think of this latest development, in the comments down below.

Overall, it was a very dangerous situation that led to a miraculous recovery. After subsequently being put on a ventilator, Hamlin was able to regain motor function and has since left Cincinnati.

Odell Beckham Jr. Flexes Knee Recovery In Pick-Up Basketball Game

by

Odell Beckham Jr. made headlines last month as he attempted to get a job in the NFL. He has been out of commission since the Super Bowl when he sustained a second ACL tear. Overall, he visited three teams including the Giants, Cowboys, and even the Bills.

However, none of the teams he saw offered him a contract. Based on comments from numerous teams, it felt like OBJ’s knee was still very much an issue. Additionally, Odell only seemed interested in playing playoff games, which could certainly cause some division.

Odell Plays Ball

According to TMZ, Odell is currently sharpening his skills, although in another sport. In the video clip below, Beckham Jr. can be seen playing a pick-up game of basketball. OBJ is going one-on-one in the clip and he looked pretty good doing so.

In fact, you can tell that his knee is getting significantly better. Of course, playing pick-up basketball is much different than running routes. However, this is a great step forward for the wide receiver, who still has plenty to give to the game of football.

Beckham Jr. has made it clear that he wants to sign a long-term deal and make a permanent home to end his career. The Cowboys and Bills have seemingly shown great interest in Odell, however, he will likely have to wait until the offseason to get that contract. Either way, Beckham Jr. will be back on the field next season, which is great news for his fans.

There is still quite a bit of fanfare surrounding his free agency decision, so stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the NFL. Additionally, let us know where you think Beckham Jr. should play, in the comments below.

Rob Gronkowski Changes Course On Retirement Stance

by

Rob Gronkowski is easily one of the best tight ends to ever play the game. He and Tom Brady played some amazing football together and even won four Super Bowls as a duo. Unfortunately, Gronk is retired from the game of football, and Brady clearly misses him.

However, Gronk has teased a potential return to the game. On a few occasions, he has even said that he was bored. Subsequently, this led to some offers from different teams. Although, Gronk wasn’t exactly jumping at the bit to take these teams up on their calls to action.

Is Rob Gronkowski Coming Back?

Interestingly enough, in a new interview with TMZ, Gronkowski noted that he could very well make an NFL comeback. Of course, it is going to take a lot of money to make this happen. Gronk says he would need to be paid like a QB, although we all know that is not going to happen.

“Like Dumb and Dumber, baby. You’re sayin’ there’s a chance,” Gronkowski said. “You never know. What if someone wanted to throw the whole salary cap at me, baby, or half of the salary cap, then you gotta think about it. Throw me some quarterback money. Then you’re talking, so there’s always a possibility.”

Brady certainly could have used Rob Gronkowski this season. The Buccaneers QB struggled throughout the year, and he even finished with an 8-9 record. Regardless, the Bucs are headed to the playoffs where they hope to get in a few upsets.

Be sure to keep it locked to HNHH for all of the latest news from around the sports world. Additionally, let us know which team you think Gronk should play for, in the comments section down below. We’re sure plenty of fanbases would love to have him.
