Per Hill's agent Drew Rosenhaus, who spoke to Darlington, the Miami Dolphins wide receiver has been detained and released, and he will still play in the first NFL match of the new season against Jacksonville Jaguars. Rosenhaus told Darlington he "assumes this is a very similar situation" to the one that played out with Scottie Scheffler at the US PGA in May. He added: "I think Tyreek will be fine today but we are going to have to look at this, I want to make sure he wasn't mistreated."Scroll below for Darlington's report...<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">One <a href="https://twitter.com/JeffDarlington?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@JeffDarlington</a>, who saw Scottie Scheffler’s arrest at the PGA Championship, was told by multiple sources that Tyreek Hill was stopped for speeding, and after an officer didn’t like his tone was placed into handcuffs under arrest, to <a href="https://twitter.com/Espngreeny?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Espngreeny</a>.
