A pair of Miami Dolphins fans were ready to pay whatever it took to get Tyreek Hill out of jail as they thought he had been taken into custody on Sunday morning.
The Fins wide receiver had a bit of an irregular pregame period as he was detained by Miami-Dade police ahead of the early afternoon fixture vs. the Jacksonville Jaguars. Hill and teammate Calais Campbell were both placed in handcuffs after the defensive tackle protested Hill’s treatment by the officers.
The Pro Bowlers were eventually released and were able to play. But it appears that the fans in question jumped the gun, given that they made a call to the police department in an attempt to bail Hill.
The fans offered to pay whatever it took to get the WR out so he could play, expressing some relief when they were told he hadn’t been booked.

One of the officers involved in the morning’s events has since faced disciplinary action, having been placed on administrative league.
The MDPD has revealed that an internal affairs investigation is underway, with one officer sent home in the meantime.
Hill, meanwhile, had a telling impact on Miami’s fortunes, scoring an 80-yard touchdown to help the AFC outfit win 20-17. The wideout made seven catches for a total of 130 yards and was leading the NFL in receiving yards after Sunday’s first slate of games.
