Hill said after the Dolphins' season-opening 20-17 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars that he was pulled over for allegedly speeding while driving to the stadium. He was placed in handcuffs after a verbal altercation and cited for reckless driving, according to sources. He expressed uncertainty about the incident, questioning what might have happened if he weren't a star athlete. He highlighted the importance of staying calm and compliant in such situations.
After the game, Hill shared, 'Right now, I'm still trying to put it all together. ... I still don't know what happened. But I do want to use this platform to say, 'What if I wasn't Tyreek Hill?' It's hard. I don't want to bring race into it, but sometimes it gets kind of iffy when you do.' He emphasized the need to consider repercussions for those without his status.
Miami-Dade Police Department Director Stephanie V. Daniels stated, 'Following the incident involving Tyreek Hill, I have initiated an Internal Affairs investigation to ensure a thorough review of the matter. One of the officers involved in the incident has been placed on administrative duties while the investigation is underway.' This reflects the department's commitment to addressing the situation transparently.
