Miami Dolphins receiver Tyreek Hill was handcuffed and placed face down during a traffic stop before a game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, leading to controversy and allegations of reckless driving. The South Florida Police Benevolent Association stated that Hill was briefly detained for officer safety after he was not 'immediately cooperative,' and he received two citations for careless driving and a seatbelt violation. Video footage of the incident went viral, showing Hill surrounded by officers, prompting accusations of racism from onlookers. Hill later expressed confusion about the handcuffing, claiming he was respectful and did not understand the situation. Following the incident, one officer has been placed on administrative leave as the Miami-Dade Police Department conducts an internal investigation. The police union defended their actions while emphasizing the need for future communication regarding such incidents.
