Dolphins’ wide receiver Tyreek Hill is under investigation on allegations of assault/battery at a Miami Beach marina, a spokesperson for the Miami-Dade Police Department said Tuesday. According to WPLG-TV in Miami, Hill allegedly hit a marina employee during a “disagreement” on Sunday. Miami sports radio show host Andy Slater reported that Hill slapped the employee on the back of the head but that the employee has declined to press charges at this time.

The NFL is redoubling its efforts to reinforce the league’s gambling policy to players due to recent violations. The NFL now requires all rookies to attend mandatory education sessions, and a group of league officials is making in-person visits to team facilities to emphasize and clarify what activities the NFL prohibits amid the rapid proliferation of sports gambling. The six “key rules” of the gambling policy that the league officials will emphasize are:

  1. Don’t bet on the NFL.
  2. Don’t gamble at your team facility while traveling for a road game or at a team hotel.
  3. Don’t have someone bet for you
  4. Don’t share team “inside information.”
  5. Don’t enter a sportsbook during the NFL playing season
  6. Don’t play daily fantasy football.
