Former Alief Taylor High School and Texas A&M star Michael Bennett, a two-time Pro Bowler with the Seattle Seahawks, said he was a victim of racial profiling and police brutality in Las Vegas after the Floyd Mayweather-Conor McGregor fight.

In a post on Twitter on Wednesday, Bennett wrote that after the fight, he heard what sounded like gunshots in the street. That caused him and a large crowd to take off running.
