Tyreek Hill: Police body cam footage released after detainment before Dolphins’ season opener

The Miami-Dade Police Department released body camera footage on Monday afternoon from the incident that left both Miami Dolphins players Tyreek Hill and Calais Campbell detained briefly ahead of their season opener on Sunday.

Hill was detained by police after being pulled over on an apparent traffic stop while he was on his way to their game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, and he was seen in handcuffs on the ground just a few blocks away from Hard Rock Stadium. Campbell said he stopped to try and de-escalate the situation, and he was detained by police, too. Both players were released in time to play in the game as scheduled.

Miami-Dade Police Department Director Stephanie V. Daniels announced Sunday that one of the officers involved in the incident was placed on administrative duties and that the incident was under investigation. Daniels released body camera footage Monday night, and Hill posted a very short message on social media shortly after.

CBS Sports’ Jonathan Jones obtained the footage first and shared a thread of it on social media. The first video he shared showed an officer on a motorcycle pulling Hill over. It’s unclear how fast Hill was driving at the time, or if he had committed any infractions. Hill appeared to comply with the officer’s instructions in the first video.

The following videos include NSFW language and images that may be upsetting.

A second video showed Hill interacting with officers while he was on the phone with his agent, Drew Rosenhaus. Three officers pulled Hill out of the car and put him in the ground after Hill briefly rolled his window up.

Next video shows the interaction from when the officer approaches Tyreek Hill’s car until his detainment. It sounds as though…
