Miami Hurricanes running back Jordan Lyle was arrested in Broward County on Thursday, August 13th on charges of reckless driving and fleeing authorities.<\/p>\n

Lyle was booked into Broward Main Jail on a Sunrise Police arrest warrant for a second-degree felony of aggravated fleeing or eluding a law enforcement officer and a second-degree misdemeanor of reckless driving, according to the Broward Sheriff\u2019s Office.<\/p>\n

The running back was released on a $55,000 bond the same day.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are aware of an incident involving student-athlete Jordan Lyle,\u201d a University of Miami spokesperson said to talk<\/a> show host Andy Slater. \u201cAs due legal process runs its course, we will have no further comment at this time.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Miami Hurricane has reached out to the University for a statement, but has not received a response at this time.<\/p>\n

Lyle, a former four-star prospect, was previously named the starting running back heading into the 2025 season, but injuries limited him to make only six appearances and 108 rushing yards as Mark Fletcher Jr. emerged as the Canes starting running back.<\/p>\n

Lyle broke out during his freshman season, totaling 400 yards on 54 rushes. He led the team\u00a0with 7.4 yards per carry \u2014 the highest average for a Hurricane with more than 50 rushing attempts.<\/p>\n

His standout play came against USF in 2024, where the then-18-year old scored a 91-yard touchdown to cap off a 50-15 road victory.<\/p>\n

Heading into this upcoming season, Lyle generated plenty of buzz from both the coaching staff and media as a player who found his stride in the program again.<\/p>\n

\u201cI see the Jordan Lyle that we saw a year ago in many respects, but with better physical traits,\u201d Head Coach Mario Cristobal said following Tuesday\u2019s practice<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cI don\u2019t think people really knew the extent of how banged up he was last year, and now we see a full-speed player so we\u2019re really excited about him.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

With the start of Miami\u2019s season rapidly approaching in just three weeks time against Stanford Sept. 4, how the program handles this situation remains to be seen.<\/p>\n

This is a developing story<\/p>\n
