Herman Hill, the father of Miami Dolphins star wide receiver Tyreek Hill, was at the team’s game against the Buffalo Bills on Thursday night and was giving his son the full support he could.

Hill stood on the sidelines at Hard Rock Stadium wearing a white T-shirt with a two-word message: “Free the Cheetah.” The T-shirt also featured a photo of his son’s celebration during last week’s win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The receiver put his hands behind his back and Jaylen Waddle “unlocked” his imaginary handcuffs, mocking his police custody.

Tyreek Hill was in the lineup for Thursday night’s game after a couple of long days.

Hill was arrested near Hard Rock Stadium on Sunday after being pulled over for traffic violations. Body camera footage of the incident showed the intense moments of Miami-Dade police officers executing a traffic stop on the player, getting out of his car and handcuffing him on the ground.

A police officer involved in the incident was placed on administrative duties after his detention.

Hill has since called for the officer’s firing.

The receiver addressed the incident at a news conference with reporters Wednesday. He admitted there were some things he could have done differently.

“My whole life is about accountability,” Hill said. “How can I improve? Right now, I have family members who are police officers. We’ve had conversations. Yes, I will say I could have been better. I could have rolled down my window at that moment, but the thing for me is I don’t want to attract attention. I don’t want to be under cameras, I don’t want to be under phones at that moment.

“But at the end of the day, I’m a human being. I have to follow rules, I have to do what everybody else would do. Does that give them the right to beat me up? Absolutely not. But at the end of the day, I wish I could go back and do things a little differently.”
