    Is Tyreek Hill already facing a Personal Conduct Policy suspension?

    Posted by Mike Florio on April 19, 2019, 11:12 AM EDT

    The league moved quickly to launch an investigation regarding possible child-abuse complaints involving Chiefs receiver Tyreek Hill, so quickly that the request for information came before the date of the latest police report on the topic. Given the latest development in the case, the league could move quickly to take action against Hill, if it wants to.

    The reported removal of the three-year-old boy from the custody of Hill and the boy’s mother did not happen quickly or easily. It’s an extreme outcome that occurs only when a judge orders it. And it occurs only when a judge has determined that the child’s environment is sufficiently unsafe to justify removing the child from the home and placing the child elsewhere. Even if Hill himself did not commit an act of child abuse against his three-year-old son, Hill is a key member of a household deemed by a judge to be unfit to care for the boy.

    And here’s how that becomes a potentially significant problem for Hill. The list of behaviors that can result in discipline under the NFL’s Personal Conduct Policy includes this: “Conduct that poses a genuine danger to the safety and well-being of another person.”

    Applying basic logic to the situation, a judge wouldn’t have removed Hill’s son from the home unless the judge believed that the boy’s “safety and well-being” were in “genuine danger.” Which means that there’s already enough evidence to justify punishing Hill under the Personal Conduct Policy.

    The league office has clear power to do basically whatever it wants to do under the Personal Conduct Policy, and Hill’s history could make the league office more likely to pursue him aggressively. He pleaded guilty to assaulting his then-pregnant girlfriend before entering the NFL, something for which the NFL couldn’t have disciplined him. But the NFL can do so now, and the NFL could be more inclined to do it to Hill, if there’s a belief in the league office that he has not suffered a sufficient sanction for what he previously did.

    And that’s without an arrest or charges or a specific finding that Hill committed any type of violence against the boy. If the investigation pivots in that direction, it could only get worse for Hill.

    For now, it’s bad enough — and the situation presents sufficiently unique circumstances to allow the league to punish Hill aggressively, if that’s what the league wants to do.

    Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

    Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

    We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

    We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.

    NFL sought information on Tyreek Hill investigation before second incident

    Posted by Mike Florio on April 19, 2019, 6:35 AM EDT

    It’s unclear what the NFL will do about the current child-abuse investigation involving Chiefs receiver Tyreek Hill. It is now clear that the NFL mobilized its internal investigative procedures before the second of two incidents that remain under investigation.

    According to Neil Nakahodo and Brooke Pryor of the Kansas City Star, the NFL sent a letter on March 12 seeking information regarding “recent child abuse complaints involving the parents Crystal Espinal and Tyreek Hill as it relates to alleged injuries sustained by the couple’s minor child.”

    The date of the letter falls in time between a pair of police reports regarding the situation; the first was dated March 5, and the second was dated March 14.

    The report doesn’t explain how NFL became aware of the situation. The incidents did not become publicly known until March 15, when first reported by the Star.

    The March 12 letter from the league requested “all reports” regarding the situation, including all photos, statements, medical records, 911 calls, reports generated as a result of investigations, and more. The March 12 letter also explained that the league was “reviewing this incident to evaluate whether a violation of the NFL Personal Conduct Policy occurred related to a complaint or arrest involving an NFL employee, in this case, Mr. Hill.”

    The timeline suggests that the local officials were on notice of the NFL’s inquiry regarding Hill even before the incident that generated the second police report, on March 14.

    No arrests have been made or charges have been filed in connection with any of these incidents. The Star reported on March 15 that the three-year-old child at some point suffered a broken arm.

    Seems that the Chiefs are regretful about letting go of Hunt and are hanging on to Hill.

    Poor kid having that scum as a father....

    I liked him as a player, even if he was a Steeler, or even if something like this happen to a Steeler, I hope he gets kicked out of the league.

    Yeah, Hill is a sick guy who seems like he's going to kill someone at the rate he's going if he doesn't get some help.

    The child was removed from his parents' custody. Hill can't evoke his 5th amendment rights when his employer conducts its own investigation into the matter. Ben was once suspended by the league after not being actually charged with anything. The DA said that he believes that a crime was committed here, they just did not have sufficient evidence to bring the charges. Hill should not get off scot free from the league here. A lengthy suspension is still quite possible considering Hill's past and what he please guilty to before entering the league.

    Maybe Hill will benifit from timing on this.

    I'm of the opinion that Kraft won't get significant punishment from the league.

    Since Hill's being investigated at the same time, people will naturally compare the two.

    If Hill isn't charged and gets disciplined, I think it would make it harder for them to not discipline Kraft at the same time.

    Ideally they come down hard on both for tarnishing the shield if nothing else (and I think there's lots of "else" there for both of them)
