NFL prospect Laremy Tunsil learned a tough social media lesson Thursday night when a video of a man in a gas mask smoking through a bong surfaced on his verified Twitter account before being deleted moments later.

Tunsil ended up going 13th overall to the Miami Dolphins and after finding out he was making his way to South Beach the offensive lineman admitted to starring in the (old) video.

Tunsil and company are sticking to the hacking story but it was too late, the internet had already made up their minds on the whole ordeal. 

Some people sided with Tunsil, 

While others wondered who the football star had pissed off. 

At the end of the day the most important thing is that a strong football player made it to the league despite all the distractions.
