The wide receiver was driving to the Dolphins-Jacksonville Jaguars game on Sunday when Miami-Dade police stopped him just outside Hard Rock Stadium, handcuffed him and put him face down on the pavement.
"If I wasn't Tyreek Hill, Lord knows, I probably would have been, like, worst-case scenario, I would have been shot or would have been locked up" and "put behind bars, you know, for a simple speeding ticket," Hill told NBC News.
Hill was cited for reckless driving and driving without a license, said his agent, Drew Rosenhaus.
It was crazy how that same officer who took me down handcuffed Calais for just standing on the side."
But she was running late Sunday and decided to travel to the stadium on her own, they said.
