Early Life

Born on March 1, 1994, Tyreek Hill spent his childhood in Lauderhill, Florida. He was raised in Pearson, Georgia, by his grandparents, Virginia and Herman Hill; Virginia shared with “The O’Colly” in 2014, “I brought him home from the hospital. I prefer being called mother, even though I know I’m a grandmother first. To him, I am mom.” As a child, Tyreek began playing flag football and joined a Pop Warner league at age 7, competing with 10-year-olds. He attended Coffee High School, where he excelled on the track team, winning both the 100 meters and 200 meters at the Georgia 5A state meet in 2012.

College Career

Following his high school graduation, Tyreek Hill joined the football and track teams at Garden City Community College in Kansas. In 2014, he transferred to Oklahoma State University. However, he was dismissed from the university’s football team in December 2014 after being arrested for domestic violence. During his time on the team, he ranked second nationally in combined return yards and eleventh in all-purpose yards. In September 2015, Hill began his studies at the University of West Alabama, where he played as a wide receiver, running back, kick returner, and punt returner for the Tigers football team.

Professional Career

After showcasing his skills at West Alabama’s Pro Day, Tyreek Hill was unexpectedly selected as the 165th pick in the 2016 NFL draft, despite projections that he would go undrafted due to his 2014 arrest. This marked him as the first player from West Alabama to be drafted since the mid-1970s. Although the Kansas City Chiefs faced scrutiny for their selection, head coach Andy Reid defended the choice by stating, “The young man is trying to do the right things, whether it’s …”

through counseling, whatever that may be. He is making an effort to improve himself. Many individuals do not make the effort to correct their mistakes, so I commend him for that. He is truly putting in the effort.” In May 2016, Hill signed a four-year contract valued at $2.58 million (which included a signing bonus of $70,000). He began his season as a kick returner, punt returner, and wide receiver. His first NFL catch was a nine-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Alex Smith. During a matchup against the Denver Broncos, he became the first NFL player since Gale Sayers of the Chicago Bears in 1965 to achieve a kick return for a touchdown, a receiving touchdown, and a rushing touchdown all in the same game. Because of his performance in this game, Tyreek earned the title of AFC Offensive Player of the Week. Later in the season, he was recognized as AFC Special Teams Player of the Week on two occasions, and he led the league in punt return touchdowns and punt return yards. Hill was selected for the Pro Bowl, the All-Rookie Team, and named First-team All-Pro. He was ranked #36 by fellow players on the “NFL Top 100 Players of 2017” list.

By late 2017, Tyreek was selected for the Pro Bowl once again, and in 2018, he was honored with a third Pro Bowl selection, as well as being named first-team All-Pro and second-team All-Pro. In April 2019, he faced a temporary suspension from the team due to a child abuse investigation. However, following his clearance, he signed a three-year contract extension worth $54 million. He sustained a posteriorly dislocated sternoclavicular joint from a shoulder injury during the season opener and was unable to return until week six. The team triumphed in the AFC West and competed in Super Bowl LIV, defeating the San Francisco 49ers 31–20. During week 12 of the 2020 season, Tyreek earned the AFC Offensive Player of the Week award. The Chiefs appeared in Super Bowl LV, where they were defeated by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 31–9. In January 2022, he set a new team record for the highest number of receptions in a single season (106). Two months later, Hill was traded to the Miami Dolphins, who offered him a four-year, $120 million contract extension that includes a guaranteed $72.2 million.

Personal Life

In December 2014, Tyreek was arrested on charges of allegedly assaulting his pregnant girlfriend, Crystal Espinal, which led Oklahoma State to expel him from the football team. After pleading guilty to domestic assault and battery by strangulation, Hill received a sentence of three years of probation and mandated anger management therapy. Hill and Espinal got engaged in September 2018. However, in March 2019, he faced an investigation for battery after their three-year-old son, Zev, broke his arm. A recording emerged of Crystal asking Tyreek why Zev stated that “Daddy did it,” and she expressed that their son was “terrified” of him; to which Hill replied, “You need to be terrified of me, too.” Consequently, the Kansas Department of Children and Families temporarily placed Zev into protective care, and in June 2019, reports indicated that medical investigations concluded that “the broken bone was the result of a typical accident involving a rambunctious toddler, which was consistent with reaching out to brace for a fall.”

Hill and Espinosa are also parents to twins, Nyla and Nakeem. Shortly after their birth, in July 2019, she sought “sole legal custody and residency of the minor children.” In December 2020, Tyreek announced his relationship with Keeta Vaccaro, who accepted his proposal on July 4, 2021. In March 2022, Awesemo.com reported that Hill was in a relationship with painter/Instagram model Mary Isabel.

Over the years, Hill has undergone multiple paternity tests. During an interview in April 2024, Tyreek claimed to have 10 children. It is known that he fathered three children with three different women within a span of four months.
