You can't make this up!!!

Draft this puke, resign McClain and Hardy. Sign the newly released dysfunctional Giants DE while building the brightest future.

Already have the best Prima Donna WR in the NFL......wait for it...... WOOOP!

Whoa okay this explains it. What an idiot..



Outkick has since learned through multiple sources that Nkdemiche's fall was the result of his use of synthetic cannabinoids — frequently called "synthetic marijuana" or "fake weed" — which has become an increasingly popular drug among athletes — and college students — because it doesn't show up on drug tests. But unlike traditional marijuana, synthetic marijuana, made with processed chemicals of varying substances and quantities, can lead to paranoia, delusion and hallucinations.

Outkick has been told that Nkemdiche, after using the synthetic cannabinoids, was paranoid and convinced someone was chasing the 6-foot-4, 296-pound defensive tackle when he broke through his hotel room windows and plummeted more than 15 feet to the ground. Had Nkemdiche not landed on a bush outside the hotel, his injuries would have been much more severe.

At the time he was loaded into the ambulance, Nkemdiche was so disoriented he was unable to provide his name, address, or any explanation for why he'd fled his hotel room.

Another excerpt about his older brother and teammate who's had similar issues with synthetic marijuana:


Nkemdiche's troubles with synthetic cannabinoids mirror his older brother Denzel's struggles with the same product. Denzel, a senior linebacker on Ole Miss, was hospitalized after he was found near the edge of the roof of his off-campus town home, wrapped in a blanket, terrified that someone was after him, Outkick has learned. Denzel missed the final two games of the season.

At least he passes the injury prone test

If this was Sean Lee, it would be a 10 year recovery.

 

[JoeyBoy718]

At least Marion Barber waited till he retired to do something like this.

 

[Setackin]

At least he is smart enough to use the fake stuff that won't show u on any tests lol

 

[Avery]

This is going to be a very expensive lesson for him.

 

[Alexander]

At least he is smart enough to use the fake stuff that won't show u on any tests lol

This is going to hurt worse than if he used the real stuff and just owned up to it. I had a feeling he was a little overhyped to begin with, this will start his plunge in status rather early.

Ole Miss standout defensive tackle Robert Nkemdiche is recovering from Sunday's fall out of a fourth-story hotel window, but as more details emerge from the strange event involving Atlanta police, a disturbing trend in college athletics has come to the forefront — the use of spice, or synthetic marijuana.

Sources have told Fox Sports' Clay Travis that Nkemdiche is believed to have used "synthetic cannabinoids" before falling and wasn't in his right mind during the ordeal. A popular recreational drug at college parties and notably among athletes since it doesn't show up in drug tests, synthethic marijuana has harmful effects and can lead to hallucinations, paranoia and delusion.

The same substance is believed to be the culprit in last month's unfortunate episode involving Nkemdiche's brother, Denzel, who was reportedly rushed to an Oxford hospital after he was found in bad shape with the belief someone was after him.

According to the report from Fox Sports, Robert Nkemdiche was unable to provide his name or address on Sunday after his 15-foot fall. He suffered only minor lacerations after falling on a bush. Nkemdiche was charged with marijuana possession, but the investigation is still ongoing according to police.

Maybe he was trying to fly to Dallas. Round 2 pick here we come. Need him to pass that joint to Lynch as well. Lol

I just don't see it with him. I hadn't watched much of him and was just going by what I had read. Watching some of him lately, I don't see a top 10 pick. I think Aaron Donald and Sheldon Richardson were much better prospects and they went a lot lower than he's projected. I'm all in on Bosa (unlikely to be there), Ramsey or Hargreaves now.

I seen Nkemdiche play quite a bit and he's a player imo who can sometimes take plays off and then there are games like the Alabama game earlier in the season in which he couldn't be blocked as he was in the Alabama backfield all night harassing both Henry, and Coker and then he was used as a RB on some of OM's redzone packages and you're right he's not as good of a prospect as Richardson, or Donald was but if he gets drafted by the right team he could flourish but that team will be taking him at their own peril he has really good all around talent but he has a 10 cent brain.

Yep I can see his draft stock fall much like Gregory's did but let's hope the Cowboys don't repeat what they did with Gregory with this guy imo he would fit in this 4-3 scheme here but I will pass.

This is one interesting dude.

So it essentially gave his brother a nervous breakdown, then he went ahead and used it anyway a few weeks later while being touted as a high first round pick.

Stay very very far away. That's deep south crazy right there. This is the kind of kid who does ok when he is surrounded by coaches who are like father figures and then gets a ton of money and has no supervision in the NFL and goes nuts. Do. Not. Want.

I will say, I have smoked Salvia (synthetic marijuana) and I had delusions, but never got paranoid and hurt myself.

This is one interesting dude.

He doesn't smoke weed often, but when he does he makes sure to fall out of a fourth story window and follow it up with a rousing jazz saxophone session.
