Sophomore Miami linebacker Adarius Hayes was injured in a two-car crash that left two children dead and several others in the hospital.

Police in Largo, Fla., the hometown of Hayes, said the crash occurred at 1:45 p.m. Saturday as a Dodge Durango collided with a Kia Soul that was making a left turn at an intersection.

Killed were 10-year-old Jabari Elijah Solomon and 4-year-old Charlie Herbert Solomon Riveria, according to police.

It was unclear Sunday whether Hayes was a driver or a passenger and which car he was traveling in.

University officials have not commented on the crash or the extent of Hayes’ injuries.

Hayes played in 12 games as a freshman in the 2024 season, primarily on special teams. He had four tackles and one interception.

Coming out of Largo High School, Hayes was a four-star prospect in the Class of 2024.
