Video Released Showing Odell Beckham Jr. Removed From Flight

NFL free-agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. was removed from an American Airlines flight in November after being involved in an altercation with the flight crew and other passengers. This week, the bodycam footage from the Miami-Dade police department who responded to the incident was released.

The bodycam footage showed Beckham’s altercation with the flight crew, as well as his run-in with other passengers who were asked to deplane while officers checked on the wide receiver’s well-being.

The crew aboard the Los Angeles–bound flight noticed that Beckham appeared to be going in and out of consciousness as they attempted to wake him and have him fasten his seatbelt before the plane departed from the gate.
