Odell Beckham Jr. Suspension Upheld on Appeal
The one-game suspension of New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. has been upheld on appeal, and Beckham will not be permitted to practice with the Giants for the remainder of this week or play in Sunday night’s game in Minnesota.

Despite the criticism, many Giants, including coach Tom Coughlin, stood up for their teammate after the game, saying that though his actions were wrong, Beckham was provoked before the game even started. “If anyone was to stick up for Odell it had to be himself, because the officials made it clear at that point in time, they didn’t want to control it or didn’t have any control over it, said Wing”.
The New York Giants wide receiver posted a six-sentence note to Twitter in which he wrote that he “dropped the ball on sportsmanship” in Sunday’s game against the Carolina Panthers.
Beckham was not immediately available for comment.
“I’ll be the reason you don’t play today…and other days”, Ball said, according to Wing.
Irvin said Beckham told him the Panthers were trash-talking at him with gay slurs and before the game taunted him with a baseball bat. “I don’t have the ideal answer, but I think one thing they can say is how I handled myself the other day is an example of how not to conduct yourself”.
“We got to the 50 and there was a guy dressed in warmup clothes, not in football gear, and he was kind of looking at Odell and Odell was still dancing around and went to shake his hand”.
“And this just in: I think when the season doesn’t go very well, you know what it looks like”.
What Beckham has to do from here on in is not let defensive backs, no matter what they say or what props they may bring out to pregame warm-ups, get in his head. Beckham certainly was wrong – and we said he was wrong from Day 1 – but there were factors involved starting in pre game.
Wing had no problem remembering the response Beckham got from the bat-carrying player.
“I owe some people an apology, ” Beckham said.
Ordinarily, the league office says it only talks to the referee about specific calls that are reviewable on instant replay. On that topic, Wing said, “There may have been, there may not have been, I don’t want to say there was because I don’t remember 100 percent”.
Beckham is a truly gifted player and a joy to watch on the football field; regardless of what team you care about, his brilliance is to be appreciated. In fact, it has been reported that Panthers’ players derogatory comments about Odell’s sexuality are what fueled the scuffle.

“If I had a dollar for all the ex-girlfriends that had false allegations about me”, Ball said. “No other team or member of any other team has crossed our side of the field and came and spoke to us”.
