Dolphins star Tyreek Hill arrested by police – NBC 6 South Florida

Tyreek Hill was detained by police Sunday morning as he entered Hard Rock Stadium prior to the Miami Dolphins’ Week 1 game.

The NFL’s top wide receiver from last season has been released and will be available for the game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, the team confirmed in a statement. The Dolphins said several teammates witnessed the incident and stopped to support Hill.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter shared video of the incident, which shows Hill handcuffed and lying on the ground as multiple officers surround him.

ESPN’s Jeff Darlington reported that Hill was given a ticket for reckless driving. He then got into a verbal altercation with police, Darlington said, and the officer then decided to handcuff Hill.

Hill is available to play in the team’s season opener, which begins at 1 p.m. ET in Miami. The 30-year-old wide receiver is entering his third season with the Dolphins after signing a restructured contract last month with $65 million guaranteed.
