Odell Beckham, gay slurs and homophobia in NFL

Odell Beckham of the New York Giants was suspended a game after repeated altercations with members of the Carolina Panthers. After, reports said that Beckham was subjected to gay slurs before the game and ex-players said the receiver has been subjected to such slurs all season.

The matter was dropped at Beckham's appeal but many questions remain. Were slurs used? How frequently" Why were they not brought up at the hearing? What is it about such slurs that allow them to still carry a lot of weight in sports?
