Chiefs’ Hill won’t be suspended by NFL after league’s own investigation

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Tyreek Hill will not be suspended following the NFL’s fourmonth investigation of child abuse reports involving the Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver and his former fiancee, Crystal Espinal, the league announced Friday.

“Based on the evidence presently available, the NFL cannot conclude that Mr. Hill violated the Personal Conduct Policy,” the NFL said in a statement. “Accordingly, he may attend Kansas City’s training camp and participate in all club activities.

“He has been and will continue to be subject to conditions set forth by the District Court, Commissioner Goodell, and the Chiefs, which include clinical evaluation and therapeutic intervention.”

Hill is expected to be at training camp with the Chiefs when team veterans report to St. Joseph, Mo., on July 26.

“Based on the information provided to us by the league, we have decided it is appropriate for Tyreek to return to the team at the start of training camp,” the Chiefs said in a statement. “The club fully supports the conditions for return laid out by the league and will continue to monitor any new developments in the case.

“We are glad to welcome Tyreek back to the team and look forward to the start of training camp next week.”

Addressing the public for the first time since he was barred from team activities in April, Hill wrote he respects and accepts the NFL’s decision in a statement on Twitter.

“To the fans, friend and family that I have made in Kansas City: I love you and thank you for your continued support,” Hill wrote. “To the NFLPA, Mr. Ned Ehrlich: thank you for your dedication, understanding and guidance throughout this process. — Brooke Pryor and Laura Bauer, The
