Laremy Tunsil’s tumultuous draft night began with an incriminating video that showed him smoking out of a gas mask bong. He went into Thursday as a projected top-3 pick, but fell to the Miami Dolphins at No. 13.
After being selected, Tunsil explained the situation to the NFL Network’s Deion Sanders. He said that his account was hacked.

Tunsil said:
“Man, it was a mistake. You know, it happened years ago. Like I said before, somebody hacked my Twitter account. That’s how it got on there, man. It’s just a crazy world — things happen for a reason.”
The offensive tackle from Ole Miss learned about the video when he was in the green room.
It isn’t clear who hacked his account, as the drama doesn’t appear to be over just yet.
