The plus-size influencer suing Tyreek Hill for allegedly breaking her leg is demanding to see secret NFL files detailing his controversial history of violence and domestic abuse, DailyMail.com can reveal.
Hill, 30, has faced various probes into his conduct during a stellar career that has seen him win a Super Bowl, lead the league in rushing yards and rank number one on a 2024 list of the sport’s best players.
Sophie Hall, an OnlyFans model suing Hill for allegedly charging at her with ‘crushing force’ during a backyard scrimmage, now wants to see what the league uncovered about its superstar wide receiver.
Her lawyers issued the eight-time Pro Bowler with a fresh production request Monday for any texts, emails or documents exchanged with NFL officials that reveal their unpublished findings.
They will also subpoena the league directly over the coming weeks as well as Hill’s current and former teams, the Miami Dolphins and Kansas City Chiefs, the NCAA and Oklahoma State University, where he was kicked off the team in 2014 for choking his pregnant ex-fiancée.
The slew of legal moves comes after Hall, 35, claimed in a February complaint that she left Hill feeling ‘humiliated’ when she managed to ‘hold her own’ and even knock him backwards during a practice drill at his Southwest Ranches, Florida mansion.
He retaliated by charging at her ‘violently and with great force’, she alleges, resulting in significant and serious injuries. Hill’s lawyers insist he never touched her during last June’s bust-up. She hurt herself tripping over a dog, they claim.
Nicknamed Cheetah because of his blistering speed, Hill has been dogged by controversies dating back to 2014 when he was kicked off the team at Oklahoma State and received three years’ probation for choking Crystal Espinal while she was pregnant with their first son, Zev Carter.
In 2019 he was suspended by Kansas City over alleged child abuse allegations but was reinstated after he pleaded his innocence and a district attorney determined there was insufficient evidence to prove he had broken Zev’s arm.
The NFL carried out its own ‘comprehensive’ four-month investigation and reportedly spent eight hours interviewing Hill before concluding that he had not violated its personal conduct policy.
Hall’s fresh production request demands ‘copies of all findings, conclusions and/ or reports by the NFL’ mentioning both the attack on Espinal and incident involving Zev, DailyMail.com can reveal.
She wants to see any similar correspondence between Hill and the Chiefs, who inked the wideout to a three-year, $54 million extension before he caught nine passes for 105 yards to spark their winning 31-20 comeback in Superbowl LIV.
Hill joined Miami in 2022 in a blockbuster trade and signed a record-breaking four-year, $120 million extension for a wide receiver.
Off the field, however, he got into another scrap when he was caught on CCTV allegedly slapping a marina employee who declined to press charges over the incident.
Hall is demanding ‘copies of any and all findings, conclusions and/ or reports by the NFL as part of the NFL’s investigation of you regarding the allegations of assault and battery on you around June 18, 2023 at the Haulover Marina.’
She also wants to see any messages, letters or emails he exchanged with law enforcement, her filing states.
Hill finishing the 2023 season with an NFL-leading 1,799 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns before Miami lost to the Chiefs in the AFC Wild Card Game. Just days ago he was voted number one in the ‘NFL Top 100’ list by his peers.
Off the field things were just as frenetic, as he suffered a major house fire, became embroiled in multiple paternity suits and filed to divorce wellness influencer Keeta Vaccaro, 28, just months after marrying her.
He withdrew the petition within days – claiming it was filed by his lawyers without his knowledge – and the couple are expecting their first child.
Hall’s complaint says Hill started sending her ‘flirtatious’ Instagram messages a day after she enrolled her ten-year-old son in the Tyreek Hill Football Camp in May last year.
Hill flew her to Florida on June 28 and invited her to ‘hang’ at his mansion, which boasts a spa, putting green, NBA regulation basketball court and a turf football field.
British-born Hall had never played football before but Hill suggested she join him for practice drills so she could learn more about the offensive lineman position her son plays.
She claims she ‘caused Hill to be pushed backwards, garnering laughter from the witnesses present at the time, including the Defendant’s mother, sister, friend and trainer.’
‘Apparently embarrassed by his loss of stability as a result of contact by a woman during the “football play”, Mr Hill’s attitude changed and he became angry.’
Hill instructed Hall to play offense, hiking the football to an imaginary quarterback, while Hill became a defensive pass rusher, the suit, filed in Broward County, adds.
‘Defendant Hill charged into her violently and with great force, resulting in significant and serious injuries,’ the suit adds.
‘The crushing force was so great that she sustained a right leg fracture, necessitating surgery with metal hardware implantation.’
Hall – who is three inches taller than Hill – says the gridiron star ‘downplayed’ her injury, offering her ice and a bed to lay in.
But after being ‘in pain and agony’ for days she was diagnosed with a right leg fracture which required surgery, weekly physical therapy sessions and still causes her persistent pain and weakness.
Responding to the suit, Hill’s attorney Julius Collins said Hall’s injuries were already being addressed by a pending insurance claim and that his client had done nothing wrong.
‘The notion that Mr Hill became upset because Ms Hall “held her own” in playful football drills is absurd,’ he added.
