Tyreek Hill: Miami Dolphins wide receiver detained by police for traffic incident ahead of NFL season opener | NFL News
Miami Dolphins star Tyreek Hill was briefly detained by police after being pulled over for a ‘traffic incident’ on his way to their opening match of the NFL season.
The wide receiver was seen on videos posted to the social media site X, formerly Twitter, laying face down on the ground, close to the Hard Rock Stadium, as officers placed his hands behind his back and appeared to put handcuffs on him.
Hill was released soon after and is available to feature for the Dolphins later on Sunday, with his agent Drew Rosenhaus telling ESPN that he was detained for a “traffic violation”.
In a statement released on X, Miami Dolphins said: “This morning, WR Tyreek Hill was pulled over for a traffic incident about one block from the stadium and briefly detained by police.
“He has since been released. Several team-mates saw the incident and stopped to offer support.
