It's hard. I don't want to bring race into it, but sometimes it gets kind of iffy when you do. What if I wasn't Tyreek Hill? Lord knows what those guys would have done. I just wanted to make sure I was doing what my uncle always told me to do whenever you're in a situation like that -- put your hands on the steering wheel and just listen."
Hill said he has "no idea" why officers placed him in handcuffs; he said he was not disrespectful and did not use profanity toward the officers.
At one point during the incident, videos showed Hill lying on the ground, handcuffed, with four officers around him.
Dolphins teammates Calais Campbell and Jonnu Smith stopped to offer support for Hill and deescalate the situation, leading to Campbell's detainment, as well.
