Hills manager: “Completely unnecessary”
Hill’s journey to the stadium was eventful. Police briefly detained the 30-year-old wide receiver because he was involved in a traffic incident, the Dolphins announced before kickoff.
In a video posted on Platform X, Hill can be seen lying face down on the ground while four officers surround him, place his hands behind his back and appear to handcuff him. The incident occurred outside the Dolphins’ home stadium, Hard Rock Stadium.
One of Hill’s teammates was also handcuffed
In the evening it was announced that an official had been suspended from duty following an investigation. “That tells you everything you need to know,” commented Hill when he heard about it after the game. Calais Campbell, Hill’s teammate, who tried to help him and was himself handcuffed for a short time, said: “That makes sense.” In his opinion the situation was “extreme.”

Hill insisted he had behaved correctly towards the officers: “I was not disrespectful, that’s not how my mother raised me. I didn’t swear, none of that. Like I said, I’m still trying to understand that.”
Hill’s manager Drew Rosenhaus told ESPN about the moving images of the arrest that were circulating: “This is crazy, I’ve never seen anything like it.” For him, the police’s actions were “completely unnecessary.” But the most important thing is “that Tyreek is OK, physically and mentally.”
Six field goals for Steelers kicker Boswell
With Justin Fields as quarterback, the Pittsburgh Steelers won 18:10 against the Atlanta Falcons. However, the team had to thank not the young playmaker, who now has the advantage in the duel with the injured Russell Wilson, but kicker Chris Boswell: He made six field goals and scored all of the visitors’ points.
In Caleb Williams’ NFL debut, the Chicago Bears celebrated a 24:17 win against the Tennessee Titans. However, the offense was only partially responsible for the success: the Bears defense scored two touchdowns and two field goals.
