Today at 3:00, Steve will be holding a press conference regarding the criminal investigation involving Tyreek Hill and Crystal Espinal. This will be held in our 4th floor conference room.

The NFL rarely has all the facts and they don't need to. [Reply]
Come on, now. You'd be the only one not surprised if the Chiefs cut him. Lol
At this point even if he does get suspended, he's going to appeal. What will he lose his appeal over? Goodell's opinion on the highlights he's read of the case?
An appeal will drag on for months. It's a distraction during a potential Super Bowl season.
At this point it doesn't even matter if he wins on appeal or not, it's still a mess. [Reply]

Definitely and Steve Howe did not pursue charges but he sure did convict someone in the court of public opinion.
I just dont believe in that approach, if your convinced take it to a court 50/50 chance you win. For all we know they had nothing seems a cowardly approach. [Reply]

And I don't say this as a conspiracy theory. We - literally - do not know the specifics. Because they will not tell us (they being the da).
That's why I'm not sure what's going to happen. Maybe what the NFL will discover is that he literally had nothing to do with it.
Or maybe he did. I don't know.
A lot of folks are acting like they do....
I certainly don't know what happened. And I'm not presuming innocence or guilt.
My only horse in this race is that the NFL can suspend him for this whether people want to believe that or not. Today's PC has zero bearing on what the NFL will do. They aren't beholden to any criminal precedent. [Reply]

Some things just don’t make much sense here and I honestly think it’s a legitimate possibility that the kids broken arm was more of an accident, maybe due to bad parenting, but not necessarily violence.
I didn't watch any of this but just going through the thread did they not just say that they have evidence of a crime but no one to 100% pin it on? How do you take that as it was probably an accident? [Reply]

Wait a minute ... not just his kid ... any random kid. And lots of them. Let 'em all have it. Spiral fractures for everybody under the age of 4!
And just so you know, your magic is fading.

It's a pretty simple question. Either Tyreek abused his son or is protecting someone that abused his son. You said you weren't okay with the first option, so I'm wondering if you're okay with the second. [Reply]

The courts have already litigated this and said the NFL (commissioner) has the ability to suspend any player they believe violated the Personal Conduct policy. That is why Elliott decided not to pursue it further. [Reply]
