The video of Tyreek Hill's treatment at the hands of the police did not go down well.

Stephen A. Smith voiced his concern for the Dolphins wideout via a series of posts on X.

"This story with the police involving @cheetah ain’t going away damnit. Traffic violation? Fine. But WTH was he face down in cuffs, stood up, then the other officer runs over behind him and forces him to the ground again??? Hell No! Excessive! Wrong! Again, this ain’t going away," Stephen A. Smith said.

Despite Hill's quick release, the Miami Police Department continues to face intense criticism for their treatment of the Dolphins star.

Tyreek Hill had a phenomenal game against the Jaguars as he once again racked up over 100 receiving yards and scored a touchdown.
