What happened to Odell Beckham Jr?

To understand the crux of the internet hot topic, it is necessary to know the details of the particular segment on the said podcast. Speaking to social media influencers Celina Powell and Alzina on the September 7 episode of the podcast, Slim Danger, an adult actress and a social media personality, opened up on her 'weird' intimate moment with Odell Beckham Jr. 

Her appearance on the podcast coupled with the mention of OBJ shot the podcast to the limelight with 'Odell Beckham Jr.' trending on social media with over 72,000 mentions on Tuesday alone.

OBJ responded to the allegations via a social media post on Tuesday. While the picture may have been a generic image of the wide receiver from one of his training sessions, his caption turned the heads of his Instagram followers. OBJ wrote: "Can’t knock me off my pivot... no matter what shxts thrown my way." The misspelt 'sh*t' was in direct reference to the big reveal on Monday's podcast.

The 27-year-old did not explicitly deny the allegations floating on the internet, which sparked a flurry of indirect references and comments on his Instagram post.

Some of the most hilarious memes/reactions on social media:

The three-time Pro Bowler will be hoping to leave the social media shenanigans out of the field as the 2020 season opener approaches. The 27-year-old failed to steer his side to the playoffs in his debut campaign in Cleveland. The team finished third in American Football Conference Northern Division (AFC-North) with a poor 6-10 record. This season, Beckham will be in the hunt for a strong start to the season, which could set the momentum for the rest of the COVID-19-hit season. Cleveland will play their season opener at Baltimore Ravens on September 12.
