LSU issues statement after new information emerges about cash handed out by Odell Beckham Jr.
When LSU alum Odell Beckham Jr. was spotted handing out cash to LSU players following Monday’s title game, it was originally reported that it was fake money.
However, on “Pardon My Take” this week, LSU QB Joe Burrow told a different story, saying it was real money.
Now, LSU has had to release a new statement, acknowledging that student-athletes may have been put in compromising positions:

The player featured most in the video was WR Justin Jefferson, and he declared for the 2020 NFL Draft on Wednesday.
