Most notable was a play in which Beckham raced across the field to slam his helmet into that of an unsuspecting Norman.
“Regardless of the outcome of my appeal, I apologise for my actions on Sunday”. Sportsmanship and respecting the game are as important as blocking, running routes, catching the football. I displayed poor sportsmanship.
Beckham has 91 receptions for 1,396 yards and 13 touchdowns this season. His absence could be a huge factor for a team barely in playoff contention. “That is a responsibility I accept and take seriously”.
“Everybody knows Odell is such a great player so I’m sure they had plans to maybe get him off his game, ” Wing said. Wing talked about the incident for the first time with the media on Wednesday.

Beckham appealed the ban, but it was thrown out by National Football League appeals officer James Thrash.

Even his coaches and teammates, who made a point of reminding everyone that they support Beckham in general, couldn’t condone what he did.
