Revealed: How troubled NFL star Tyreek Hill is tackling off-field woes amid explosive divorce dispute with influencer wife

NFL phenom Tyreek Hill is attempting to move forward from a troubling offseason that includes an explosive divorce dispute by going to therapy and church more often. 

Hill spoke publicly for the first time since the end of the Dolphins’ season in January, where he took himself off the field against the New York Jets before the end of the game and then appeared to request a trade after the game. 

Hill has walked back that desire, with head coach Mike McDaniel showing public displeasure for the way the speedy wide receiver handled his business. 

The 31-year-old’s offseason hit a climax last month when police were called to his home during a domestic dispute with his then-wife, influencer Keeta Vaccaro. She has since filed for divorce from Hill. 

‘It’s tough. Only thing I’m going to say is, man, money is a crazy thing for a lot of people,’ Hill said. ‘But I mean for me, we just going to let the details just handle itself, you know what I’m saying? Because at the end of the day, the truth always comes out, right?’

‘My job is just to be a great father to all of my kids and be the best player I can be and be the best leader I can be for these guys in this locker room, man. So, I’m going to stand strong on that and I’m going to stand firm on that.’

Hill also spoke on him wanting to be traded and where his current status with the Dolphins resides. 

‘It was tough, man,’ Hill added. ‘Obviously emotions were high then, but at the end of the day, I’m just looking to move forward from that, hoping that I can prove myself and prove to my teammates that I’m still one of them ones, man, who’s chasing 2K [receiving yards], still one of those ones chasing playoff dreams and all of that great stuff.’

After missing the postseason, it is clear Hill has changed things only as the AFC gets more stacked around Miami. 

‘I’m doing more,’ Hill said. ‘So just being more involved in that and then just understanding what coach is trying to do. I feel like when I first got here, I wouldn’t say that I wasn’t all the way bought in, but me having, me having a better understanding of what [McDaniel is] trying to push throughout the locker room, I feel like now I understand him better.’ 

‘I understand Tua [Tagovailoa] better. I understand Bev [quarterbacks coach and pᴀssing game coordinator Darrell Bevell]; our new receiver coach – me and him clicked immediately when he got here. Everybody’s on the same page, man.’ 

Robert Prince, the new wide receiver’s coach in Miami, has praised Hill for how he has led the room since his arrival, including taking out the position group at the start of the Dolphins’ offseason program. 

Whether therapy and his faith will help Hill become the near-MVP winner he was in 2023 is unclear. However, he seems focused on regaining that form.
