OXFORD - A video appeared on Twitter on Thursday evening of former Ole Miss offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil apparently smoking a bong while wearing a gas mask.

The video went out on Tunsil’s verified Twitter account about 10 minutes before the NFL draft began but was deleted within a few minutes. However, several screenshots of the video had been taken before it could be removed. Tunsil's account has also been deleted.

Tunsil’s expected to be among the first players chosen.

The release of the video comes two days after Tunsil’s stepfather, Lindsey Miller, filed a lawsuit against Tunsil alleging an “intentional infliction of emotional distress.”

Tunsil allowed just two sacks in 29 games during his three-year career with Ole Miss before declaring early for the NFL draft.
