Tyreek Hill

Chiefs WR Tyreek Hill will likely be placed on the commissioner’s exempt list this week, per a report from Dan Graziano.

Hill was suspended from Chiefs’ team activities last week after a disturbing audio clip of he and his fiancée was released in which Hill made some threatening remarks and described disciplinary measures he used on his son. An internal investigation is being conducted by the Chiefs organization while Hill is being investigated by local authorities in regard to his son’s broken arm and Hill’s possible involvement in that crime. Rumors have circulated that Hill may be cut by the Chiefs, but it appears the team will do its due diligence before making any decisions. The commissioner’s exempt list prohibits Hill from participating in any NFL activities and essentially acts as “leave without pay.” Kansas City brass has shown its firm stance on domestic violence recently, releasing RB Kareem Hunt almost immediately after video of him assaulting a woman was released last November.

The Kansas City Chiefs have suspended Tyreek Hill from participating in team activities while they further investigate his recent off-field family issues.

Despite not being charged by the district attorney, an audio clip that is now public has landed Hill in even more hot water as questions about his character will keep him from the team. Not only is his time with the Chiefs now in question, but his career in the NFL as a whole.

New and disturbing audio of Tyreek Hill discussing his son’s broken arm has been released.

Fantasy Impact

Just one day removed from learning that the District Attorney would not file charges against Hill in a “domestic dispute,” a disturbing audio recording has been released of Tyreek Hill and his fiancée discussing their son’s broken arm. His fiancée asks Hill why his son says “daddy did it.” Hill also describes his disciplinary methods as punching his son in the chest and using a belt. When pressed by his fiancée, he tells her “you need to be terrified of me.” The DA has made it clear that the investigation could be reopened with new evidence, so the situation is far from resolved. The NFL will almost surely issue some form of discipline regardless of any legal repercussions.

ESPN's Adam Schefter is reporting that the District Attorney will not press charges against Tyreek Hill in the domestic abuse case.

Fantasy Impact

There has been updates quite often with Hill recently, though nothing was concrete until now. His child had been removed from his home after suffering a broken arm in a "domestic dispute," though the DA's office has decided there's no conclusive evidence as to who actually broke the child's arm. The Chiefs said they were paying attention to the matter, but given there will be no charges pressed against Hill, he's likely going to get away from this unscathed. Unless Roger Goodell gets involved, this may be the last we hear on the issue.

Tyreek Hill is present at the start of the Chiefs’ off-season workout program on Monday.

Fantasy Impact

Hill is still under investigation for two cases of suspected child abuse, but the the NFL is not going to hand down any rulings until child protective services finishes their part in this. Hill had yet to talk to Chiefs coach Andy Reid so will likely do so this week. Hill and the Chiefs has been discussing a contract extension before these allegations came to light. Obviously that has been put on hold for now.
