5. Odell Beckham Jr., wide receiver, New York Giants
Beckham is passionate about the sport he plays and wears his emotions on his sleeve. He is a fantastic, physically gifted athlete and a tremendous asset to the Giants when he is on his best behavior.
On the other hand, he can be downright annoying when his emotions get the best of him. OBJ has been known to lose his cool after a bit of physical antagonizing. So much so, he has been referred to by opposing defenders as a “prima donna” for his diva-like behavior.
Beckham has also been fined and suspended for punching and taunting opposing defenders.
Another more recent temper tantrum occurred when Beckham tried to destroy a kicking net, which ended up knocking him in the head (watch here). He was frustrated with Eli Manning for throwing an interception. But hey, at least OBJ made it up by proposing to another kicking net the following game after scoring a touchdown.
His bad behavior continued during the playoffs when he (somehow) caused a wall at Lambeau Field to end up with a fist-sized hole in it.
Beckham’s antics are likely to continue if he can’t keep his cool. But, at least he gives it his all every single game.
