Offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil will not be appearing at his scheduled press conference with the Miami Dolphins because of an apparent allergic reaction.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Miami Dolphins’ first-round pick in offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil of the Ole Miss Rebels will not appear as planned for his introductory press conference with the team because of an apparent allergic reaction.

Tunsil’s last 24 hours have been insane to say the very least. He was at one time the presumed No. 1 overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft. He plummeted from potentially No. 3 to the San Diego Chargers all the way to No. 13 with the Dolphins because of a leaked video of him using a gas mask to get high leaked out on his Instagram and all over Twitter.

This caused both the Baltimore Ravens and the Tennessee Titans to completely remove him from their draft board all together. While at his first press conference in Chicago since being selected by the Dolphins, Tunsil may have let slip that he received money from coaches to attend the University of Mississippi.

Now, Tunsil isn’t going to appear in Miami for his introductory press conference as their 2016 first round pick because of an allergic reaction? It’s impossible to make this up. It has been an absolute whirlwind for Tunsil and his family the last 24 hours. Just a strange story all the way through.
