Odell Beckham Jr Suspended for Josh Norman Hit

The Carolina Panthers deny that any member of the team taunted New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. with a baseball bat before Sunday’s game.

Mendes was speaking to Globoesporte when he said Mourinho had not been approached yet. “There isn’t an official proposal either”. He was the highest paid boss in the Premier League at Stamford Bridge, where he earned a staggering £10m-a-year.

Beckham would miss this Sunday night’s game at the Minnesota Vikings if the appeal stands.

Added coach Mike White: “Really happy for Zach, a great young man, obviously overcoming an unbelievable adversity”. He would miss the free throw but finished the night with his first points as a Florida Gator .

“The crew was doing a really tough job of trying to keep the game under control”, Blandino said on the NFL Network.

With that said, Beckham needs to remember that sticks and stones may break his bones, but names can not hurt him.

Beckham led all wide receivers in the fan balloting, and was the seventh-highest vote-getter overall. The handfighting between he and Norman was escalating, and the helmet-to-helmet hit he put on Norman was genuinely risky. To be clear, items such as massage rollers, agility ladders, medicine balls, and any equipment to assist the medical and athletic training staffs in treating players are permitted. A bunch of guys from the Carolina Panthers said a bunch of things, how they was going to hurt him and a bunch of other things about who he is as a person. They threw a flag, but it was for the pushing and shoving after the earholing.

In a further indictment of referee Terry McAulay, Blandino revealed that he spoke with an official in the MetLife Stadium press box to reinforce the option to eject. Blandino said as much yesterday.

Neither of those things happened, and when Odell caught the game-tying touchdown over Norman with just a few minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, I didn’t know how to feel. Sources on both sides believe it could be resolved Wednesday but acknowledge that scheduling conflicts of the individuals involved could push it back to later in the week. That would presumably be Norman.

“The pregame incident could provide context to what precipitated Beckham’s actions during the game, for which the receiver had been widely criticized”, ESPN reports on its website.

Make no mistake, though, the fact Josh Norman appears to have verbally abused Odell Beckham Jr. does not make the physical reaction it elicited from the Giants wideout right.
