The Indianapolis Colts’ schedule reveal video didn’t last long before it was deleted by the team due to an “insensitive” joke about Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill.
“We removed our schedule release video because it exceeded our rights with Microsoft and included an insensitive clip involving Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill. We sincerely apologize to Microsoft and Tyreek,” the Colts said in a statement given to ESPN on Thursday.
The video, which was a spoof of Microsoft’s Minecraft game, showed brief clips representing the matchups on the Colts’ 2025 schedule, including a Week 1 game against the Dolphins. The clip showed a Coast Guard boat with a siren stop a dolphin wearing a No. 10 jersey with a “Hill” label.

Hill wasn’t too bothered by it, though.
Should’ve left it up @Colts , this was funny https://t.co/ULVYH43lxL
In September 2024, Hill was stopped and detained by police prior to the Dolphins’ Week 1 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The officer that forcibly removed the receiver from his car and placed him in handcuffs was later placed on leave.
The traffic tickets that Hill received in the incident were dismissed in court.
