Miami Hurricanes linebacker Adarius Hayes has been released from the hospital after being involved in a two-car crash Saturday that killed three people.
Police say Hayes was driving a Dodge Durango when it collided with a Kia Soul at an intersection in Largo, Florida.
The driver of the Kia, along with two children in the vehicle, ages 10 and 4 were killed in the crash. Another passenger was hospitalized with serious injuries, police say.
Hayes, a linebacker who played sparingly for the Hurricanes as a true freshman in 2024, was taken to a hospital with what were determined to be non-life-threatening injuries.
‘We are deeply saddened to learn the crash resulted in three fatalities, as confirmed by Largo Police, and our thoughts and prayers are with the families and loved ones of those lost,’ the school said in a statement.
Largo Police said Sunday there were ‘no signs of impairment with either driver” and no criminal charges were pending.
Hayes played in 12 games for the Hurricanes as a true freshman in 2024, making four tackles and recording one interception. He was a four-star prospect out of Largo High School and was ranked as Rivals’ No. 3 linebacker in the 2024 national recruiting class.
