Miami Dolphins Have DISASTROUS Week With Tua & Tyreek Turmoil | OutKick The Show with Clay Travis

Tyreek Hill Incident there now that I have seen and Adam you can correct me if I'm wrong I believe there are three different videos from police officers that have been uh released so far one is Tyreek Hill driving at what appears to be a rather High rate of speed and the uh motorcycle cop turning and chasing after him to pull him over then the interaction between the police officer and Tyreek Hill uh which was released first and then a third one where Tyreek Hill says basically this is what it's like to be a black man in America uh and uh the police officer or officers say we aren't white they're Hispanic it appears uh that were involved in this incident now it's gone Mega viral what is my take uh first of all there is no perfect actor here as is the case in most videos of all of life no one is perfect and the hero and no one is imperfect and the villain okay so let's begin there with what we saw from this police uh Behavior now it's hard to tell exactly how fast Tyreek Hill is driving in the uh Stadium Zone with a bunch of uh a bunch of cones up that suggest that it needs to be slower rates of speed but if you watch the video Tyreek Hill drives past the police officer and then also passes a bunch of other cars the police officer has to go very fast to catch up with him uh I don't think there's any doubt that Tyreek Hill was speeding and was going at a higher rate of speed than anybody else around him in other words I don't think there's an argument that the pull over of Tyreek Hill was in some way unjustified I think he was speeding I think certainly he was uh worthy of getting a speeding ticket now as someone who has been pulled over for speeding a lot I bet I'm in the 95th percentile for most times pulled over in a variety of different sta States for speeding I tend to drive fast I don't like uh when there is not a lot of traffic I don't like the fact that you can't drive fast I go fast I've been pulled over candidly four speeding in like eight states not I'm not even kidding about this so I have been pulled over a lot by police officers in a variety of jurisdictions I've even joked about this on my drives down to uh down to the beach in Florida I think I've built some of the lower Alabama schools where they have all these speed traps I mean I'm talking about like you're going 45 and suddenly the speed drops to 25 I mean just crazy speed traps I'm not talking about going like 120 miles an an hour I'm talking about the speed changes by 30 m an hour in the space of like A4 Mile and it's almost impossible not to be speeding all right so I've been pulled over a lot reason why I give you that background every single time that I get pulled over I don't have tinted windows officer walks up I've got my hands on uh on the the wheel trying not to draw substantial attention to myself I roll down the window and I give the officer my license and registration sometimes in the what AM it 30 years that I've been driving sometimes in the 30 years that I've been driving I have either gotten cops who are jerks or this may stun some of you sometimes I've been kind of a jerk because if you get pulled over in a speed trap you're often times not predisposed to be very favorable towards the police officer that's the reality uh even if you might have been speeding if you've ever been pulled over in a speed trap jurisdiction you understand that you might not be uh in a great relationship uh or great mood and that might characterize your relationship with the officer sometimes police officers have been jerks to me um and what I tell my kids and this is what I told them my whole life comply with police officers I've got a 16-year-old that I'm teaching how to drive right now I have told him if you ever get pulled over by a police officer don't behave outrageously with them even if you don't think there is a constitutional justification for what they are telling you to do comply with the police officers I'm a lawyer we've got the resources to get you lawyers you can fight back against what you consider to be inappropriate police Behavior after you survive a police stop so I'm giving you all that background for this reason Tyreek Hill was pulled over based on the evidence it seems quite clear to me Force speeding he was then asked to roll down his window and keep his window rolled down he has tinted windows some of you out there who haven't spent much time thinking about this or you just reflexively decide which side you want to line up on on uh a viral video the reason why the window needs to be down is the police officer given that the window is tined needs to be able to know that he's not in danger that there's not some weapon being grabbed inside of the vehicle if Tyreek Hill had rolled down his window and merely left his window down nothing from that point forward is likely to have occurred that is he wouldn't have been pulled out of the car there would wouldn't have been any detention on the side of the road there wouldn't have been the chaos that arose so my advice to all of you out there is even if you think you're in the right even if you think you have done absolutely nothing wrong when a police officer pulls you over pull over put your hands on the wheel comply with all the instructions and don't antagonize or exacerbate the tension of what might already be a tension filled situation for an officer so if Tyreek Hill had merely kept his window down there would not have been an issue now did the officer behave in an aggressive fashion in response to Tyreek Hill Tyreek Hill's aggression yes will he watch that on film of himself the body camera and probably think hey could I have dialed back my behavior to some EXT ENT in this interaction and made things a little bit better yes I think it is the uh it is the correct decision to have made that everybody can always dial back the significance of uh any interaction right in terms of the aggression but if I had to assess and then by the way Tyreek Hills refusing to roll down his window they open the door they pull him him out they put him on the ground and they put him in cuffs do I think he needed to be cuffed no do I think he needed to be uh held on to the ground not personally okay but if I had to assess blame here Tyreek Hill is speeding and refusing to comply with the instructions of an officer if there are 10 points of blame to a assign here I probably go Tyreek Hill 7 and A2 or eight police officer 2 and A2 or two that's the way that I would assess or whatever the math is two and a half or two I think is right right police officer 20 or 25% responsible Tyreek Hill 70 75% 80% responsible however you want to sayess that's roughly my um that's roughly my analysis of this situation okay um now why is this a huge story because of Tyreek Hill's Behavior if he had just gotten a speeding ticket none of us would have ever known and I would also point out that they're going to try to turn this into a racial situation Tyreek Hill himself already did it on camera when he said this is just what happens to a black man in America it's just not true Scotty Sheffer did far less driving to the PGA Championship uh to golf and he was actually arrested and taken to the Louisville jail and charged with crimes this is where the Crazy Town Police has a real difficulty in explaining why Tyreek Hill basically got let go and went and played football and had no consequences Scotty Sheffer actually got arrested taken to the Louisville jail he had to stretch to get ready for his golf round and they charged him with multiple crimes until they finally drop them so look what this reflects is this can happen to anybody which is why I come back to my standard operating procedure here the thing that I tell my kids as well comply with the request of a police officer if your rights are being violated then you can later the great thing about America is apply those rights through the legal system what you can't do is decelerate a situation after you have accelerated it and made everybody more likely to be in danger Now The Usual Suspects have shown up like Jamal Hill and she said hey and I'm paraphrasing you know it's important to know that the owner of the Miami Dolphins is one of Donald Trump's biggest supporters and what does that even have to do with anything if anybody wanted to get Tyreek Hill arrested it would not be the Miami Dolphins who were paying him $120 million $30 million this year a over a million dollars per game and actually would have been the owner of the Jacksonville Jaguars cuz if he could have gotten Tyreek Hill arrested the Jags probably would have won that game so the only person who has an incentive to have anybody arrested that owns a football team on Sunday is the guy playing against Tyreek Hill not the guy who's paying Tyreek Hill of anybody that's who they want to take the field so it's important to just apply basic logic I understand that Trump's has broken a lot of people's brain but to see Tyreek Hill get pulled over for speeding and pulled out of his car for refusing to roll down his window and somehow think oh how can I make this about Donald Trump is banana land uh Bonker land Insanity from The Usual Suspects on the left um so that is my take on the Tyreek Hill incident he's not a hero if I had to assess blame I would say he's about 75% responsible for this since if he wasn't speeding none of this interaction would have ever happened and if he had just rolled down his window and left it down there would have been no further incident he would have probably gotten a speeding ticket and none of us would have ever had any idea that this had happened at all but for those out there trying to turn this into a race related issue including Tyreek Hill in the usual suspects in the media I would just point out Scotty Sheffer did way less and got treated way worse than Tyreek Hill which really undercuts the idea that somehow the awful racist police officers were trying to mistreat Tyreek Hill if you don't want to get pulled over don't commit a moving violation in your car don't speed in an area like that and uh and and you won't have to worry about it I put up a Should Tua Retire? poll question for first of all Buffalo Bills dominated Josh Allen you heard me talking yesterday I think Josh Allen is clearly the second best quarterback in the NFL now he didn't have to do a lot in that game uh the bills dominated on the ground really took control early they didn't need Josh Allen to make that many plays with either his legs or his arm uh defense played very soundly all of those things but you heard me debating with Kelly Stewart Kelly and Vegas yesterday I don't think there is a debate Patrick Mahomes is the best quarterback in the NFL uh I I don't even think there is anyone who would argue for another quarterback does he have a great uh coach in Andy Reid yes uh is he in a fantastic situation uh in Kansas City all those things can be true Patrick Mahomes is the best quarterback in the NFL but I don't even think there's much of a debate now about who the second best quarterback in the NFL is I think it's Josh Allen now there are other good quarterbacks in the NFL not disrespecting any of them but I think it's Mahomes one I think it's Josh Allen to and I think there's a gap after that because I think there's a lot of arguments for who should be three four or five you could go a lot of different directions there but number one Patrick Mahomes number two Josh Allen I don't think there's any doubt somewhere down around 10 or 12 probably uh is Tua top 10ish quarterback in the NFL I would put him probably 10 to 12 if I were ranking all the quarterbacks in the NFL uh and two has had major concussion issues in the past and the biggest story to come out of the game in Miami is not the bills winning to go to 2-0 or the Miami Dolphins falling to one and one and being frankly unable to beat the bills I think the bills are 11- one against the Dolphins makes the Dolphins one and 11 uh against uh the uh the bills the bills have just dominated that division rivalry but the Tua injury uh for those of you who didn't see it he's running on a I think it was a third down play might have been a fourth down play uh down near the goal line and he runs directly into dear Hamlin ironically enough not a dirty Tackle by any stretch of the imagination in fact Tua LED with his head directly into the right side of Demar Hamlin's chest and then almost immediately collapsed had his hand up looked severely injured with a concussion there's a pause in the game uh he comes off the field Mike McDaniel actually gives him a kiss on the head uh there have been comments that he's the quarterback going forward and he needs to get well and all those things okay uh it's tough to watch and certainly I want Tua to get well um Tua by the way I mentioned my young Alabama fan son Tua was fabulous with him we met him when he was training with Trent diler back in April of 2020 uh if you remember when he was recovering from his I think it was a broken hip right uh Tua had a private workout cuz he wasn't ready for the combine that private workout took place in Nashville and uh my son uh Trent dfur is an outkick fan Trent diler great dude I really really like him Trent dfur invited us to come watch the workouts so I took my young son Tua got to meet him uh I mean my son got to meet Tua Tua was fabulous super nice guy his family was all there they were super fantastic I got nothing but great things to say about Tua I've wanted him to succeed ever since then uh when I got the opportunity to actually meet him and my son got the opportunity to spend some time with him but I think it's a really tough decision for Tua going forward he's gotten a ton of guaranteed money and his money is guaranteed in the event that he were decide to decide that injuries made it impossible for him to continue playing now there might be an insurance battle over how the 100 million plus would get paid out to him but I don't think it's a challenging decision right now um if Tua were my son and Tua came to me and he said dad what do you think I should do I know that he loves football and I know that he's been fabulously successful at it and again I think he's a top 10ish caliber quarter back in the NFL with a really talented head coach and a really great collection of players around him I think given the concussions that he's had my concern for my son would be football would be a tiny pin prick of what I was concerned for him going forward he's made more money than he can spend for the rest of his life why put your health in danger your mental uh Health in danger in the years ahead so I asked the question I was actually surprised how many of you agreed uh right now about in a couple hours of voting about 15,000 of you have voted and I said in light of tua's most recent concussion if you were a family member and he asked your opinion would you advise him to retire again just shy of 15,000 of you have voted in the first couple of hours 87% of you said yes you would advise Tua to retire I agree with the majority here again I'm not sure because he's a grown man that I would interject myself into his decision-making process but if I were asked as a family member hey what do you think I would say Tua I I think you should hang up to cleats um and uh and I don't think it's particularly a difficult decision given what he's going through from a health perspective right now and it's by far the biggest story coming out of Thursday Night Football given the fact that the bills absolutely dominated on the field and there wasn't actually uh that much drama in the game itself prior to the Tua injury
