Tyreek in Waiting Pattern with NFL

Miami Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill could be subject for NFL discipline after his offseason off-the-field incident

While reports of suspensions surfaced around the NFL on Friday, Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill said he's still waiting to hear from the league regarding his off-the-field incident.

And the way he sees it, no news is good news.

“I haven’t heard nothing from the NFL," Hill said at the end of his post-practice media session Friday, "so I believe that is good news for myself. I’m still waiting.”

The NFL has not commented on Hill's situation and there's no telling when a decision could come down as to whether Hill will face any disciplinary action, including a possible suspension, after a Father's Day incident at a South Florida marina where video showed him slapping the back of a man's head and then later having to be restrained from charging at him.

SUSPENSIONS AROUND THE NFL

The most prominent of the players suspended Friday was New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara, who was suspended for three games for his role in a fight outside a Las Vegas nightclub in 2022. Kamara reached a plea agreement in July and no longer is facing a felony charge.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver D'Wayne Eskridge and Kansas City Chiefs defensive lineman Charles Omenihu each was suspended for six games for violating the league's personal conduct policy. Both players were arrested on domestic violence charges.

Hill was not criminally charged, with Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office spokesperson Ed Griffith recently indicating that the case was closed.

In a written statement provided to the media, the individual who “would have been termed a victim if there had been a filed case” met with Assistant State Attorney Robert Fiallo and signed a form saying he did not want to press charges.

“On the form, he also indicated that no threats, promises or coercion played a part in his decision,” Griffith said.

A financial settlement between Hill and the marina employee was reached on Monday.

Based on the fact that Hill was not arrested, there's certainly reason tor the Dolphins to hope that Hill won't be suspended.
