Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel got emotional while speaking to reporters on Monday about Tyreek Hill’s controversial detainment.

Before Sunday’s season opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars at Hard Rock Stadium, officers detained Tyreek Hill for a traffic violation. Witnesses shared video footage of multiple officers handcuffing the star wide receiver and placing him on the ground during the detainment:

Dolphins defensive tackle Calais Campbell was also handcuffed by the officers when he tried to de-escalate the situation.

Per Andy Slater of Fox Sports 640 South Florida, the Miami-Dade Police Department released an official statement regarding the incident this morning. The department claims that Hill was handcuffed because he was “uncooperative”, and that he was issued a pair of traffic violations.

McDaniel choked up while discussing the incident between Campbell and Tyreek Hill to reporters on Monday.

“The thing that f**ks me up honestly, to be quite frank, is knowing that I don’t know exactly. I don’t know what that feels like. I think it’s very, very important that two things should be true…you let due process work and information to be gathered to appropriately (to) project an opinion. However…I can’t get away from the fact what I know their experience to be…”

McDaniel expressed confusion over Campbell’s detainment, calling the six-time Pro Bowler a “miraculous man that has done right in all ways, shapes and form. One of the most respected players in the game, Campbell was named Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year in 2019.

Amid the difficult situation for Hill and his teammates, McDaniel expressed gratitude that the players remain “an extended family,” and that the All-Pro wide receiver didn’t “feel alone.”

Tyreek Hill finished the thrilling season opener with seven receptions for 130 yards and a touchdown, including an 80-yard score in the third quarter that sparked Miami’s 20-17 comeback victory.

Miami will try to make it 2-0 on the season when they host the AFC East rival Buffalo Bills on Thursday night.

Mike McDaniel Reminds Everyone He’s The Ultimate Player’s Coach

Being a head coach in football goes beyond the game. It’s also about building strong relationships with the players and keeping the team together, regardless of what may happen in their personal lives.

McDaniel went to the podium and offered strong support for Tyreek Hill and his players, reminding everybody why he’s the type of coach anyone would want to play for.

Latest Photo Of Jason Kelce’s Shocking Body Transformation Confirms He Won’t Be Coming Out Of Retirement Anytime Soon

Philadelphia Eagles legend Jason Kelce all but confirmed that he’ll never come out of retirement after revealing a remarkable offseason body transformation.

Though he was still at the top of his game last year, Jason Kelce decided to hang up the cleats on his illustrious career that will lead to a spot in the Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility.

Because Kelce was playing at a high level in his age-36 season, many fans can’t help but wonder if he’d come out of retirement and return to the Eagles — especially if they’re in Super Bowl contention.

But during an interview with the Associated Press, Jason Kelce made it clear that a comeback is not happening. Kelce cited that the Eagles won’t be calling him back after his drastic offseason weight loss:

“They’re not going to call me to come back and play center at 260 pounds, and I’m moving on to the next thing and I’m excited to watch Cam (Jurgens). I really think Cam is going to be tremendous this year. He’s going to really show people how great of a player he is.

He was good for us last year at right guard and he’s going to flourish at center. And for me personally, my days of playing are just done and I do not foresee any scenario taking place other than maybe medicine inventing a way to get rid of arthritis that I would ever entertain coming back at all anymore.”
