On the same night someone gained access to offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil's verified Twitter account to post a video of Tunsil taking a bong hit, photos appearing to show Tunsil asking his college coaches for money appeared on his Instagram page.

Tunsil was suspended for seven games while at Ole Miss for receiving impermissible benefits, including a four-month interest-free promissory note on a $3,000 down payment for a used vehicle and a plane ticket.

Once considered a possible first overall pick, Tunsil slid down the board in the draft before the Miami Dolphins made him their selection at 13th overall.

After the bong video emerged, Tunsil's agent claimed the account was hacked. It appears highly likely his Instagram account has been compromised, too.
