Tyreek Hill found liable for two battery counts, ordered to pay $500,000

A Miami jury found former NFL wide receiver Tyreek Hill liable for two counts of battery against his estranged wife, awarding her $500,000 in compensatory damages.

• The jury found Hill liable for battery incidents in January 2024 and April 2025 and cleared him of eight other claims including assault and continuing domestic violence.
• The jury denied Lakeeta Vaccaro's request for punitive damages.
• Vaccaro's attorney Paul Schwiep said money does not undo the harm but is how the civil justice system works.
• An NFL spokesperson said the allegations against Hill remain under review under the league's personal conduct policy.
