Details: Just hours before the game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Hill was detained by the police only a few blocks from Hard Rock Stadium, where the Dolphins play their home games.
The player was pulled over for speeding excessively, but when officers caught up with him and asked him to step out of the vehicle, Hill allegedly threatened the officers. This led to him being forcibly restrained and handcuffed.
The situation was quickly resolved, and Hill was released in time to participate in the game, which ended in a 20-17 victory for the Dolphins. The 30-year-old receiver recorded a touchdown during the match.
