The Indianapolis Colts released their 2024 schedule through a Minecraft-themed video, which included a scene featuring a pixelated dolphin in a Tyreek Hill jersey being intercepted by a Coast Guard boat. This was interpreted by many as a reference to Hill's past legal issues, leading to negative backlash. The Colts deleted the video and apologized to both Hill and Microsoft for exceeding their licensing rights. They later released a more cautious backup video. Hill humorously responded on social media, suggesting the Colts should have kept the original video up. The incident highlights the need for NFL teams to balance creativity with sensitivity in their content.
