And The Cop over reacted and was excessive

Yeah I mostly agree except just because they had a right to pull him out doesn't mean they needed to. Let alone throw him out of the car. Cracking the window should've been enough to start de-escalating.

While I wouldn't directly advocate for favoritism, it's just wild to me that they knew who he was, knew there were fans everywhere around them, knew they had body cams, and yet decided that dragging him out of the car and throwing him on the ground was the best way to handle the situation.

I found that extremely odd as well.

I don't disagree. It's not like it was some lineman on a non game day away from the stadium. It's the most(or second most behind Tua) recognizable player on the team, while you're working traffic by the stadium on GameDay. Give him a ticket, a talking to, and move on

He might have if he wasn't acting like an idiot.

What are the odds that happens if he had shut the car off and left his window down?

A Mensa meeting, this encounter was not.

Yeah, I hated myself for saying it yesterday because I hate celebrity entitlement. But for something like this where you have all the information you need for a small violation, I'd also think you'd have awareness that the dude you're doing this to is trying to get to the very game they're securing the perimeter for. Let alone playing for the team the city represents. After what happened to Scottie scheffler we know this can have a bigger impact than any of us showing up a little late for work. There is just so many ways this could have been a gargantuanly expensive mistake

Speeding in traffic or a cone area is not a small matter in my opinion. And these police in any of these major cities see some of the most horrific auto accidents you could ever think of. Imagine going to a scene where two semis have seemed to have hit each other, hours later pull them apart and find a minivan in there with a family of four. All because someone was speeding or driving aggressively or texting and driving or whatever.

So clearly both sides are culpable but the cops were muuuch more egregiously wrong.

Good on the Dolphins here as well. Maybe their influence will have some impact.

Yep.. Someone is getting fired..

Who was the other guy that pulled over? Was that a teammate?

The problem is that if you start arguing with a cop, things are going to go south quickly. They're trained to demand 100 percent compliance. There's a good reason for that, because otherwise people will be doing all sorts of stuff when they get stopped. But the downside is that the cops are essentially trained to be unreasonable themselves. The days of discussing the situation with Andy Griffith are long gone.

On a different note, what kind of car is he driving? That should cover a lot of child support when he's eventually forced to sell it.
