Tyreek Hill SCORES a touchdown for the Miami Dolphins, just hours after being handcuffed and pinned to the ground by officers
Just hours after Tyreek Hill was pulled over by police outside Hard Rock Stadium prior to the Dolphins’ game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, he scored an 80-yard touchdown, showing off his blazing speed.
Hill was one of the NFL’s best wide receivers last season and is probably the fastest player in the league.
During his standoff with police, Hill was pinned down and handcuffed to the ground after being taken into custody. The wide receiver was allegedly speeding in his sports car.
Hill mimicked the police incident after the score by holding his hands behind his back, as if he was under arrest.
Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle steps up behind Hill and grabs him by the wrists, mimicking the police officers pinning him to the ground.

Hill, who played for the Dolphins in their season opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars, even appeared to be beaten unprovoked by an officer in a shocking video after he was found handcuffed on the sidewalk just a block away from the stadium.
While driving to the game, the 30-year-old was ordered to pull over about a block away from Hard Rock after being issued a ticket for “reckless driving,” according to ESPN’s Jeff Darlington.
Hill was subsequently held to the ground and led away in handcuffs after an alleged altercation with an officer, before being released by police shortly afterward. Several of his Miami teammates reportedly stopped by to de-escalate the situation.
After the ordeal, he went to Hard Rock Stadium as planned and started the game for Miami as expected.
In a statement to DailyMail.com, Miami-Dade police confirmed they will review all details surrounding Hill’s arrest, including bodycam footage of the incident.
Director Stephanie V. Daniels said, “We are aware of the recent arrest of Miami Dolphins player Tyreek Hill by officers of the Miami-Dade Police Department. I have requested an immediate review of all details surrounding the incident and we are reviewing available body camera footage.
‘We will keep you updated as more information becomes available.’
The Dolphin’s statement read: “This morning, WR Tyreek Hill was stopped for a traffic incident approximately one block from the stadium and briefly detained by police. He has since been released.
‘Several teammates witnessed the incident and stopped to offer support.
‘Tyreek and all other players involved have arrived safely at the stadium and will be available for today’s match.’
Although his client has been released, Hill’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus, described the incident as a “heartbreaking situation” that was “completely unnecessary” and said action will be taken.
