Laremy Tunsil has posted, and quickly deleted, a video on twitter of him smoking a bong pipe just before the NFL draft gets underway and twitter is going mental.
Any association with weed is always a no-no come draft day. Posting a video of yourself using a bong pipe only minutes before the NFL draft gets underway when you’re one of the top draft prospects of the year? Not a great idea. It is, however, something that Laremy Tunsil has seen fit to do, and twitter has gone mental about such a stupid decision.
Entering the draft as the top offensive line prospect, it was expected that Tunsil would be drafted by the Tennessee Titans with the first overall pick until they traded back with the Los Angeles Rams. After the Philadelphia Eagles jumped up to number two to take Carson Wentz, it was expected that the San Diego Chargers would pick the left tackle to sure up a leaky and injury hit offensive line.
However, tweeting such a poorly received video, and being best friends with Robert Nkemdiche, not perhaps the most reputable of friends, has seen Tunsil fall in the draft. His night is not going to plan for now and it could well be a long waiting game to see where he ends up.
Here’s what twitter has to say…
This is the video that sees Tunsil using the bong, and it does not look good for the tackle. Here’s what twitter has to say:
Laremy Tunsil just nuked his whole Twitter account.

Any rumor about where Laremy Tunsil will go is probably a smokescreen.

It is now a waiting game to see where Laremy Tunsil will eventually fall to.
Teams are definitely aware of the Laremy Tunsil video. Have heard from several of them. I've reached out to his agent for comment/context

Laremy Tunsil may fall a lot. Source said his Twitter account was hacked and the video is old. But not denying that's him in video smoking.

#OM OT Laremy Tunsil has slipped at least to 7. The video did not help. His agent has been calling teams saying that's not who he is

And now it’s time for some more jokes…

Laremy Tunsil will be the first NFL player to be suspended right after his Goodell hug.

And this deserves a pedestal. Well played…
Laremy Tunsil will be a high pick and get a lot of green. He gives chronic effort and smokes opponents. Dope work ethic, bud. Also, weed.
