Odell Beckham Jr. asks judge to toss lawsuit over alleged assault

Former New York Giant Odell Beckham Jr. is asking a judge to toss a lawsuit against him for allegedly attacking a man in a Hollywood nightclub — claiming he’s only being sued because he’s a big name, according to reports.

Lawyers for the star receiver, who was traded away to the Cleveland Browns Tuesday, say the alleged victim just ginned up OBJ’s involvement so he could sue an NFL stark, according to The Blast.

Bennett Mcbride Sipes claims OBJ, pop star Drake and Kourtney Kardashian’s ex-boyfriend Younes Bendjima assaulted him as he was trying to leave the VIP area of the Delilah nightclub on March 24, 2018.
