What is Going on With This Nkemdiche Story? [UPDATE]
By Kyle Koster
Ole Miss is declining to identify which Nkemdiche brother was rushed to the hospital on Monday, according to WAPT.
UPDATE: Denzel was found unresponsive on Monday.
"According to a press release issued by the Ridgeland Police Department, officers responded to 711 Lake Harbor Drive at 9:31 Monday morning for reports of an “unresponsive male.” The call was deemed a “medical aid call,” and Ridgeland Fire Department was called to the scene to assist, according to the release. Nkemdiche was then transported to University of Mississippi Medical Center. Tuesday morning, UMMC said there was no patient listed under Nkemdiche’s name. Ridgeland Chief John Neal would only say, “No law enforcement action taken and there is no criminal investigation at this time.” "
It’s the latest chapter in the operatic saga of Robert and Denzel. The latter was hospitalized last month for an undisclosed reason. The former was hospitalized earlier this month after falling from a fourth-story window.
Neither player will compete for the Rebels again. Denzel is no longer on the team and Robert declared for the NFL Draft after he was suspended for the Sugar Bowl.
