Officer who posed with Cowboys running back faces discipline (Shutdown Corner)

Shortly before Sunday's game against the New England Patriots, Dallas Cowboys running back Christine Michael posted a photograph to his Instagram account that appeared to show him posing with a Texas police officer alongside a highway. The Texas Highway Patrol indicated that Michael had been pulled over because of suspicion regarding the level of tint on his front windshield.

Now, per TMZ Sports, the officer, who did not issue Michael a ticket, will face disciplinary action. "The trooper's actions have been reviewed by DPS and are not consistent with department procedure," sergeant Lonny Haschel told TMZ.
