Tyreek Hill assault case: Dolphins WR receives verdict on alleged violent incident

Tyreek Hill's journey has been filled with a lot of off-field problems. Thankfully for him, it looks like his most recent case has been settled.

Hill was reported to have hit an employee at the Haulover Marina on the back of the head following a disagreement on June 18. According to Miami sports radio show host Andy Slater, the employee did not press charges at the time.

ESPN's Adam Schefter has now tweeted a statement from attorneys representing Hill and the employee that says the differences have been resolved in an amicable way.

"The parties to the incident which occurred on June 18th, 2023 at the Haulover Marina involving Tyreek Hill have resolved their differences," Evan Feldman, the attorney for an employee of Kelley Fleet Inc., and Julius Collins, the attorney for Hill, said in a joint statement to Schefter.

This is the best-case scenario for the wide receiver. With training camp starting this week and the NFL season right around the corner, every distraction should be avoided.

The league had asked for the images regarding the incident, but since the parties involved don't have a case anymore, it's unlikely the NFL will issue any disciplinary action against the running back.

Hill was swimming with agent Drew Rosenhaus at the time of the incident.

Tyreek Hill's off-field problems: what did the Miami Dolphins wide receiver do in college?

One reason why Hill fell to the fifth round of the 2016 NFL draft involved his dismissal from Oklahoma State University after his arrest for domestic violence.

His sentence involved a three-year probation, anger-management courses and a batterer's program for a year. He was also required to either attend school full-time or be employed.

He did enroll at West Alabama and his excellent Pro Day helped regain some of the draft stock he lost, but many teams had him off their draft boards due to his past behavior. The Kansas City Chiefs took a gamble on him, and it paid off beautifully.

For now, it looks like the Miami Dolphins have dodged a bullet with this ending to the story. In a season where all eyes will be on the AFC East, they can't afford to be without one of the league's top wide receivers.
