Shades of Scottie Scheffler today in Miami
Hours before the Miami Dolphins were set to host the Jacksonville Jaguars in their 2024 season opener, superstar wideout Tyreek Hill was arrested and cited by police officers for reckless driving. This morning, Hill was driving into the stadium and was stopped by police officers, before being handcuffed and placed face down into the pavement by officers.
Per ESPN’s Jeff Darlington, there was an altercation between Hill and the officers which led to Hill being placed in handcuffs. Hill’s agent Drew Rosenhaus came down to the scene and was able to deescelate the situation, allowing Hill to enter the stadium.
The Dolphins issued a statement on the situation:
“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 teammates saw the incident and stopped to offer support. Tyreek and all other players involved have safely arrived to the stadium and will be available for today’s game.”
Hill is active for the game against the Jaguars.
