YES! Tyreek Hill will play against the Jacksonville Jaguars. 

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill was at the center of a concerning incident just hours before the team's season opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars at Hard Rock Stadium. Hill was briefly detained and handcuffed by police after being pulled over for a traffic incident about one block from the stadium.

The Dolphins provided a statement confirming the incident, stating that the everfast Tyreek Hill was released after being briefly detained by the police. Fortunately, several of Hill's teammates witnessed the situation and stopped to offer their support. Despite the unsettling events, Hill, along with the other players involved, safely arrived at the stadium and were expected to be available for the game.


As reported by USA Today, Hill’s agent Drew Rosenhaus said, “It's a heartbreaking situation. Obviously, I love Tyreek, I hated to see him in the situation he was in with the police. He is gonna play today. Number one, he's OK. Number two, he's gonna play. Number three, apparently he got a ticket for a moving violation entering the stadium.”

Rosenhaus also expressed confusion over how the situation escalated to the point where Hill was handcuffed and held on the ground, calling it deeply concerning. He emphasized that they would be investigating the matter and would continue to support Hill.

Agent Drew Rosenhaus, expressing his concern and support for Hill, assured that the wide receiver was physically unharmed but mentally distraught following the incident. Rosenhaus emphasized Hill's respect for law enforcement and his aspirations to become a police officer in the future, highlighting the unexpected nature of the situation.


Video footage showed Hill being handcuffed by officers while lying on the pavement beside his car. Rosenhaus indicated that Hill received a moving violation ticket, and he questioned the necessity of the police's actions during the detainment. Despite the distressing events, Rosenhaus commended the Dolphins' head of security, Drew Brooks, for his handling of the situation.

While Rosenhaus refrained from making any allegations at the time, he expressed his intention to investigate the incident further. He likened the situation to a previous incident involving golfer Scottie Scheffler and hoped for a resolution that prioritized Hill's well-being.

As the Miami Dolphins prepared to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars, the focus remained on ensuring Hill's mental and emotional state following the alarming encounter with law enforcement. The details surrounding the incident were a cause for concern, prompting a deeper examination to understand the circumstances that led to Hill's detainment.
