The Indianapolis Colts have apologized to Miami Dolphins receiver Tyreek Hill and Microsoft for a video released on social media during Wednesday night’s NFL schedule release.

The video was a spoof of the popular video game Minecraft, which is owned by Microsoft, and poked some fun at Hill with a dolphin wearing a Hill jersey being stopped by a U.S. Coast Guard boat with a blaring siren. The post was quickly deleted.

Indy opens its season Sept. 7 against the Dolphins.

Many teams compile videos to accompany the league’s annual schedule release and most use them to try to attract new and younger fans. But the Colts’ video drew attention for other reasons.

“We removed our schedule release video because it exceeded our rights with Microsoft and included an insensitive clip involving Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill,” the Colts said Thursday. “We sincerely apologize to Microsoft and Tyreek.”

Indy has replaced its video with a series of animated logos intended to help illustrate this season’s games.

Hill was involved in a confrontation with Miami-Dade deputies last September. He was dragged from his vehicle, forced to the ground and handcuffed after arriving at the Dolphins’ stadium just hours before a home game. Traffic citations issued against Hill were later dropped.

“Tyreek accepts the Colts apology,” Hills’ agent, Drew Rosenhaus, said in an email to The Associated Press. “He thought the video was funny and laughed when he watched it.”

Western Kentucky vs. Sam Houston prediction, pick, spread, football game odds, where to watch, TV, stream

College football is back and with it comes the return of Conference USA action. Two of the league's top returning programs face off Saturday in an intriguing Week 0 class between Western Kentucky and Sam Houston. Western Kentucky is looking to make it back to the C-USA Championship Game for a second consecutive season after finishing the 2024 regular season with a 6-2 mark in league play. That record included a Week 8 win against Sam Houston. The Bearkats, meanwhile, are looking to build off of a breakout 10-3 campaign. It was a complete 180-degree turn for Sam Houston, which went 3-9 in 2023. That's impressive progress for a program that is just three years removed from its transition from the FCS to the FBS level. The Bearkats won nine games in the regular season -- more than Western Kentucky -- and finished […]
