Laremy Tunsil was once touted as the best prospect in the 2016 NFL Draft. He was projected by many to go number one overall but in a matter of weeks, some off-the-field issues have halted those plans.
Tunsil was still a prospect that some teams were considering selecting just because of his crazy good skill but just 10 minutes before the 2016 NFL Draft, something went wrong. He ended up having a possibly horrible night.
Laremy Tunsil’s twitter account sent out a video showing him smoking a gas mask bong. Shortly after the video surfaced, the tweet was deleted, along with his account.

Ok, so that was bad. But then it got a little worse. Tunsil admitted to smoking the gas mask and he was owning up to his mistake that he made in the past.
Laremy Tunsil said "someone hacked my twitter account" and that the video was "years ago." He said he learned of it in the green room.

But if you thought it ended there, you were vastly wrong.
Shortly after he was selected 13th overall by the Miami Dolphins, news came out of his instagram account being hacked with some damning messages being shared appearing to be a conversation between Tunsil and a coach at Ole Miss.
Change. Your. Passwords.
Tunsil’s Instagram hacked too.https://t.co/cYUMxr7XyX pic.twitter.com/vcsag36VoC

When Tunsil took the stage to speak with the media after his selection from Broncos, a strange interaction happened. He was asked not once but twice about taking money from a coach and once again, things didn’t end well there either.
Tunsil just denied an exchange of money between him and his coach. Then, asked again, said it happened. Then interrupted, ushered off stage.

Damn, Laremy Tunsil. Outside of getting selected, tour night was not great, not one bit.
