Draft hopeful Bain Jr. involved in 2024 crash linked to passenger's death
Miami Hurricanes defensive lineman Rueben Bain Jr., a top NFL Draft prospect, was driving in a 2024 collision that left Destiny Betts severely injured and later died; Bain received a careless driving citation that was dismissed as defective, with no charges filed, and a separate 2025 incident yielded another defective-citation dismissal. NFL teams will review the incident as Bain’s draft stock remains high.
