Tyreek Hill Involved In Another ‘Domestic Dispute,’ Continuing Years-Long Trend Of Concerning Off-Field Behavior

Police, responding to a “domestic dispute,” were called to Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill‘s home. The call was made by Hill’s mother-in-law, who said Hill was “very aggressive and impulsive.” She told police that Hill and his wife, Keeta Vaccaro, had gotten into an argument and that Hill had thrown a laptop, grabbed their infant daughter and headed to the balcony of their high-rise apartment.

The couple told the police the interaction had not gotten violent. Officers noted there was a bruise on Vaccaro’s chest, which she said could have resulted from Hill grabbing their daughter. Ultimately, no arrests were made.

This isn’t Hill’s first off-field incident not by a long shot. He pleaded guilty to domestic violence against a girlfriend in 2014 and was investigated for battery five years later when his three-year-old son’s arm was broken, and just in the past two years, he has had two other assault cases.

Hill’s family life is also concerning. He reportedly has at least seven children by four different women, with two pending paternity lawsuits.

Vaccaro told police that she and Hill had had frequent arguments in the past and that they had tried couple’s therapy unsuccessfully. She was already in the process of filing for divorce, which she officially did on Tuesday.

While Hill has not commented, the Dolphins released a statement on the situation.

“On Monday, we were informed that the police were called to Tyreek Hill’s home, and after conversations with Tyreek and members of his family, the police departed the residence without further incident and the case was closed,” said the team. “We have since been in communication with Tyreek and the NFL and will have no further comment on the matter.”

Hill is a talented player and is an eight-time Pro Bowler and five-time First Team All-Pro. He put up an astonishing 1,799 yards for Miami in 2023 on 119 receptions. However, his recent lack of performance and continual off-field issues will disrupt his time with the Dolphins if they continue. There’s only so much talent can do.
