Jury finds Tyreek Hill liable for 2 battery counts, awards $500,000 to the NFL star's estranged wife

Tyreek Hill Verdict - (Copyright 2025 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.)

A Miami jury on Tuesday found Tyreek Hill liable for two counts of battery but not liable for the eight remaining claims made by Lakeeta Vaccaro — ending the high-profile civil trial involving the NFL wide receiver and his estranged wife.

Hill, who has played for the NFL's Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins, was found liable for two counts of battery — one stemming from an incident in January 2024, and another from April 2025. The jury awarded Vaccaro $500,000 in compensatory damages but did not award her punitive damages.
