The video was supposed to be a depiction of Miami Dolphins star wide receiver Tyreek Hill. Hill was arrested prior to a game last season, so the Colts seemed to be poking fun at the incident.
The team received a ton of backlash for the schedule release video, and they have now taken it down. In addition, the Colts have released a statement and apology to Hill for the matter.
Indianapolis also reached out to Hill's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, on the subject.
"We removed our schedule release video because it exceeded our rights with Microsoft & included an insensitive clip involving Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill. We sincerely apologize to Microsoft and Tyreek."
Hill getting arrested last season was one of the bigger storylines, and it seems that the Colts remembered it very clearly. While some had fun with the video, others found it to be extremely inappropriate and lacking taste.

Nonetheless, the Colts have now taken down the video and will now look to rectify the mistake. It remains to be seen if the Colts will release a new video for the schedule release.
NFL schedule releases have now become a staple of the sports calendar, with the league making it into an entire event. Each team releases a unique version of their own schedule, with teams looking to make them as creative as possible.
