Newly-released bodycam footage shows Odell Beckham Jr. being removed from November flight

Newly released mugshots show NFL free agent Odell Beckham Jr. belligerently cursing at passengers aboard an American Airlines flight at Miami International Airport and refusing to leave the plane after allegedly telling the crew from the flight he was recovering from a night at the club.

The plane’s crew also told officers that the 30-year-old wide receiver removed his pants in his seat before the flight’s Nov. 27 takeoff.

“They said he took off his pants,” an officer is heard saying on police body cam. He was in his underwear. he told the [flight attendant] who has been partying all night. Either he’s drunk, or both: pills and drunk.

As reported in November, Beckham was removed from the flight after he allegedly refused to put on his seatbelt as the plane was about to depart, according to Miami police. However, Beckham’s lawyer, Daniel Davilier, issued a statement at the time questioning police claims that his client was at fault for the hour-and-a-half delay that resulted in the entire plane being forced to land.

Newly released police footage from aboard the plane shows a sleepy Beckham arguing with other passengers who were upset about disembarking over his refusal to return to the terminal.

“Shut up,” Beckham yelled at a man sitting behind him after being told to “get off the plane.”

Another passenger soon became the focus of Beckham’s anger.

“You can look at me all you want,” Beckham told the passenger. ‘This shit doesn’t bother me.

“I would never, ever in my life get off the plane for you, specifically for you,” Beckham continued. ‘Maybe for everyone else, I’d get off the plane.

‘You’re going to wait 40 minutes, and I’m going to be on a private plane home, with your fat ass. Get your ass off the plane.

‘Enjoy the cheese board on the way home with your ugly ass.’

Beckham has not faced any consequences for the incident, which came as he was scheduled to go on a three-city free agency tour as he continued to recover from offseason knee surgery. The former LSU star has been out of action since he tore the ACL in his left knee while playing for the Los Angeles Rams in last February’s Super Bowl win over the Cincinnati Bengals.

The footage begins with the police, firefighters, and flight crew checking on Beckham, who appears groggy and upset.

‘Do you know where it is, sir?’ a voice is heard asking.

“You haven’t responded,” Beckham is told later.

An argument between the flight crew and fire rescue personnel ensues, with the fire crew officer telling those in attendance that the decision to remove Beckham from the plane was up to them.

“He told her that he had just come from a club,” a flight attendant said, referring to Beckham and a co-worker. And he has taken something.

A flight attendant shared her concerns about traveling with Beckham.

“He’s mad at us for calling you,” she said. “We said ‘we’re worried about you.’ I don’t know if it’s going to deteriorate when we’re in the air.

An officer then explained the protocol for dealing with a passenger who refused to get off the plane.

“We have a procedure that we have to follow,” the officer said. If he refuses to come down, we’re going to have to get everyone down.

Stepping back from his exchanges with other passengers, Beckham was respectful of the officers, shaking their hands and expressing his frustration in a low, gruff tone.

In fact, both police and EMTs were respectful of Beckham as they tried to determine if he had any health problems.

“What we’re going to do is check his blood pressure … and his blood sugar,” an EMT said. I’m sorry you’re having a bad day.

At one point, an officer checked with his colleague to make sure his body camera was working: ‘Is your camera on? Because this is going to be a media circus. Everyone is going to want to know what really happened.

Beckham’s name as an NFL star appears throughout the images.

“This is Odell Beckham,” an officer said.

‘Oh Lord!’ fire rescue crew member exclaimed on the catwalk. ‘May I get your signature?’

An officer asked: ‘Suspended though, right?’

His partner then corrected him: ‘No, he’s not playing. Nobody has picked it up.

The video ends with the officers explaining to Beckham that his checked luggage was flying to Los Angeles while he rebooked his travel itinerary.

The flight was scheduled to take off at 9:30 a.m. from Miami on November 27, but was delayed nearly an hour and 30 minutes earlier. The passengers were forced to leave the plane after Beckham refused to do so after multiple requests.

Beckham, meanwhile, tweeted the following Sunday: “Never in my life have I experienced what just happened to me…I’ve seen it all…”

He then tweeted ‘Never. In. Me. Life’ and ‘I COULD NEVER MAKE THIS UP’.
