NFL receiver Odell Beckham Jr. filed a lawsuit against NIKE, for $20 million in 2022, alleging breach of contract, only to be countersued by NIKE.
Odell Beckham Jr. took to social media to proclaim the victory against NIKE in a photo post with his legal team.
JUST DO……RIGHT @nike . I wanna take this moment to thank God first and foremost thank you Heavenly Father. I wanna thank my team for every hour they have spent preparing on this case. I wanna thank the jury for simply doing what’s right in a world full of wrong… my message to whoever needs this is, STAND UP FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN! JUSTICE WAS SERVED!!
NIKE on the other hand, is saying hold up playa, not so fast, we ‘Just Didn’t DO IT’ and OBJ did not win.
A Nike rep contacted Complex with the following statement: “With this verdict, all of Mr. Beckham’s claims have been decided against him without any monetary award. The decision confirmed that Nike complied with its commitments. Nike is grateful to the jury and the Court for their careful attention to this case.”
Reportedly on Thursday, a Multnomah County (Ore.) Circuit Court jury decided neither side, Odell Beckham Jr. or Nike, was in breach of contract, with no one awarded any damages.
In sports that verdict is what would be considered a draw…#IJS
