The Dolphins issued a brief statement Wednesday addressing assault allegations about star wide receiver Tyreek Hill, who allegedly hit a Miami Beach marina employee last weekend.
“We are aware of the situation and have been in contact with Tyreek, his representatives and the NFL,” the statement read, per NFL.com. “We will reserve further comment at this time.”
Hill is being investigated by Miami-Dade police after he allegedly hit a man who worked at the Haulover Marina following a disagreement, according to Miami’s WPLG Local 10.

Jon,
Though I will be attempting to send this letter directly to Beemok Capital and its owner Ben Navarro, I’m hoping you might want to share some portion of this in the next mailbag. I understand sports are about money, but as a Cincinnatian (now living in Chicago), this hurts. Thanks for listening/reading:
Dear Mr. Navarro,
Please don’t move the Western and Southern Open out of Cincinnati. It belongs in Cincinnati. It’s been there more than 100 years. Thousands of people involved with this tournament would agree with me. I am 46, I grew up in Cincinnati. I was a tennis player.
1. Victor Wembanyama will get drafted by the San Antonio Spurs on Thursday night with the first pick.
With the draft in New York City, the 7’3″ phenom took in Tuesday’s Yankees game and threw out the first pitch.
You may have seen Wembanyama get a lot of play on social media after he posted this photo on Instagram showing what a baseball looked like in his ridiculously large hands.

Wembanyama, however, did not post any video of his first pitch.
On one of the shortest courses on tour, we’re backing Andrew Putnam to deliver.
Haggans retired with 46.5 sacks, most of which came as a starter with the Steelers’ vaunted defense.
Editor’s Note: Welcome to the second annual installment of “The Replacements,” an SI fantasy football research series focused on vacated volume and projecting how teams will replace production year-to-year. This offseason, we’re looking at the six teams with the highest percentage of available targets and the six teams with the highest percentage of available carries heading into 2023.
The Replacements: Houston Texans | Carolina Panthers | Green Bay Packers
Three years after the Packers spent a first-round pick on Jordan Love, it’s time for him to take over under center.
Last mailbag before we shut it down for a few weeks …
From David Kromelow (@dkrom59): You mentioned how much the NFL LOVES Caleb Williams … and rightfully so. What is the early opinion around the league about Drake Maye?
David, I’d say Drake Maye would be the first pick in a bunch of draft classes and is seen as very worthy of going in that spot. So as of right now, if you were a team in dire need of a franchise quarterback and were at the bottom of the standings five months from now, you’d probably be a little disappointed winding up with the second pick instead of the first pick.
The United States Women’s National Soccer team revealed its roster ahead of the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup, which is set to begin next month in New Zealand and Australia.

Here’s the link to the full roster, which was revealed at 11:30 a.m. ET on Wednesday.
This is a breaking news story. Stay tuned for more details.
ESPN’s Kendrick Perkins was recording a TV hit with SportsCenter on Tuesday, discussing Draymond Green’s decision to opt-out of his $27.6 million player option to enter free agency, when things took a bizarre turn.
During the discussion, Perkins spoke about the decisions that new general manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. needed to make with the roster, and how those decisions could impact whether or not Green returned to the Warriors.
It’s seemingly a foregone conclusion that French sensation Victor Wembanyama will be the Spurs’ selection with the No. 1 pick in Thursday’s NBA draft.
That said, one sports bettor is taking things to the extreme, placing a massive bet at ridiculous odds that Wembanyama will indeed come off the board first. Per The Action Network, the bettor put $60,000 on Wembanyama to go first overall at -20000 odds on Draftkings Sportsbook. If it wins, the bet will pay out just $300.
On one hand, there really seems to be no drama with the Spurs’ selection.
