Tyreek Hill’s domestic violence arrest and paternity claims against Dolphins receiver are being SPORTSWASHED by HBO’s Hard Knocks, Dan Le Batard says amid Miami star’s MVP campaign

Domestic violence allegations against Tyreek Hill, as well as a pair of recent paternity cases involving the Miami Dolphins star, have all been minimized by HBO's current season of Hard Knocks, according to the popular podcaster and radio host. Then Le Batard.

“Tyreek Hill came here to become famous and 'sport' some of his past, and for the most part he has done that,” said Miami's Le Batard. “He's a star, he talks about him for MVP, and very few people bring up gruesome details about his history of domestic violence. It seems like the sport has gone a step further to celebrate Tyreek Hill for being super fast. And, like him, we moved on quickly.”

Hill has a chance to become the first player in NFL history to reach 2,000 receiving yards in a season, and he has helped the Dolphins get to 10-4 – one game shy of first place in the playoffs of the AFC.

But before his career-best NFL season, the speedster known as “Cheetah” pleaded guilty to domestic violence and strangulation involving his then-girlfriend, Crystal Espinal, when the two were students at Oklahoma State in 2014. Hill was accused of punching Espinal in the stomach while she was eight weeks pregnant with the couple's baby boy, whom Hill was later accused of abusing in 2019. However, charges against Hill were ultimately dropped despite evidence that the three-year-old suffered a broken arm had suffered.

This year, Hill settled with a man who accused him of assault, and two women filed paternity suits against the All-Pro following his recent marriage to Keeta Vaccaro, the sister of former NFL defensive back Kenny Vaccaro.

Hill's romance with Vaccaro is thoroughly documented in Hard Knocks, HBO's 2023 season documentary about the Miami Dolphins.

“The optics were the chef's kiss,” Le Batard said. “If I was his agent or someone who cared about Tyreek Hill, I would want that. Go into his living room, watch him connect with his new bride… And don't talk too much about anything from that past.'

Le Batard even went so far as to accuse Hill and HBO of arranging the scenes featuring him and his new bride.

“But now you see reports of two paternity cases, three children this year and seven children in total,” Le Batard continued. “… What you get in return for Tyreek Hill's access to him is you're going to tell the story the way he wants it, told the way the NFL wants to tell it.”

Hill was traded from Kansas City to Miami in early 2022 after audio was released of him discussing his son's broken arm with Espinal, who was heard telling the NFL star that the boy is afraid of him.

“You should be scared of me too, b****,” Hill is heard saying on the recording.

DailyMail.com revealed last week that Hill is on the receiving end of paternity suits from two former flames who claim children born in February and May 2023 are his.

This week, a third ex told DailyMail.com that Hill is also the father of her son, Tyreek D'Shaun Hill Jr, who was born between the two on March 12.

That woman, 33-year-old Camille Valmon, defended Hill to DailyMail.com.

“I can't comment on what he does outside of our parenting relationship because it's simply none of my business,” she told DailyMail.com.

“But what I will say is that he is a great father, not just to our son, but to all his children.”

Hill is not on great terms with Brittany Lackner and Kimberly Baker, both of whom are pursuing him for paternity and child support in Broward County, Florida.

Lackner blasted Hill for offering her $2,500 a month after their son Soul was born in February, dismissing it in court as a “woefully inadequate” amount for an NFL player with a $30 million annual salary.

Baker accuses Hill of showing “total and despicable indifference” to their now six-month-old daughter, Trae.

Hill had three children with Espinal before their tumultuous relationship ended, although gossip sites have speculated that he has more.
