NFL star Tyreek Hill responded to the plus-size influencer who sued him for allegedly breaking her leg during a football lesson, claiming she was injured tripping over a dog.
Influencer Sophie Hall, 35, says Hill was “humiliated” when she managed to “hold her ground” and even knock him back during practice drills at his Florida mansion.
She claims in court documents that the five-time All-Pro, 30, retaliated by charging at her with such “crushing force” that he fractured her right leg and left her needing reconstructive surgery.
But Hill’s lawyer, Julius Collins, told DailyMail.com that the speedy receiver “vehemently” denies any wrongdoing and will not be pressured to pay medical bills for an injury he did not cause.
Influencer Sophie Hall, 35, claims Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill, 29, broke his leg during a football lesson in the backyard of his Florida mansion last year, but Hill says who tripped over a dog.
The influencer claims Hill flew her to Florida on June 28 and invited her to “hang out” at his $7 million mansion in posh Southwest Ranches, outside Miami.
DailyMail.com obtained the lawsuit Hall filed against the NFL star that says she “humiliated” Hill when she managed to “fight back” and he retaliated.
“Ms. Hall’s attorney has intentionally omitted from her complaint that Ms. Hall fell on a dog while exercising with Mr. Hill, which is when she suffered her alleged injuries,” Collins said in a statement.
“The idea that Mr. Hill was upset because Ms. Hall ‘fought back’ in playful soccer drills is absurd. These drills were fun.”
Hill had an incredible 2023 season, finishing with an NFL-leading 1,799 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns before Miami lost to the Chiefs, his former team, in the AFC Wild Card Game.
But off the pitch things were just as hectic, as he suffered a major fire at his house, was caught on CCTV allegedly slapping a marina worker and became embroiled in a series of paternity claims.
Adding to the drama, Hall claims in her Broward County lawsuit that Hill began sending her ‘flirty’ messages on Instagram one day after enrolling her ten-year-old son in the Tyreek Hill soccer camp last May.
According to the lawsuit, Sophie Hall’s leg was “severely fractured” when Hill attacked her. She included an image of her x-ray in her court file.
Hall claims Hill started sending her ‘flirty’ messages on Instagram one day after enrolling her ten-year-old son in the Tyreek Hill soccer camp last May. The curvy Onlyfans creator says Hill refused to believe she was 6ft 1in, three inches taller than him.
The actress and plus-size model is suing the scandal-plagued Dolphins wide receiver for assault, battery and negligence.
The body positive influencer, who has two million followers, says Hill flew her to Florida on June 28 and invited her to “hang out” at his $7 million Southwest Ranches mansion, which features a spa, putting green, an NBA regulation basketball court and grass. football field.
Hall, born in Britain, had never played football before, but Hill invited her to join him in practice drills so he could learn more about the offensive lineman position his son plays, according to the complaint.
The 6-foot-1 actress claims she “caused Hill to be pushed back, causing laughter from witnesses present at the time, including the defendant’s mother, sister, friend and coach.”
Hill already has three children with his ex-fiancee Crystal Espinal, 28.
“Apparently embarrassed by his loss of stability as a result of a woman’s contact during the ‘football game,’ Mr. Hill’s demeanor changed and he became angry.” Hill ordered Hall to play offense, passing the ball to an imaginary quarterback, while Hill became a defensive pass rusher, the lawsuit adds.
“Defendant Hill charged at her violently and with great force, resulting in significant and serious injuries,” the lawsuit adds, alleging negligence, assault and battery.
“The crushing force was so great that he suffered a fracture in his right leg, requiring surgery with metal hardware implantation.” Hall, who is three inches taller than Hill, says the country star “downplayed” his injury and offered him ice and a bed to lie on.
But after being “in pain and agony” for days, he was diagnosed with a fracture in his right leg that required surgery, weekly physical therapy sessions and still causes persistent pain and weakness, for which he is seeking compensation of at least $50,000. . His complaint briefly mentions a dog and states that “a little puppy came out of nowhere, which interrupted the game.”
But he points the finger of blame for his injury squarely at Hill. ‘Tyreek Hill, a National Football League superstar, perennial Pro Bowler, First Team All-Pro and world-class athlete nicknamed the ‘Cheetah’ for his incredible combination of strength and speed, makes a living by humiliating and outperforming his competitors on the soccer field. ‘, insists his complaint.
Hill married his on-again, off-again fiancée Keeta Vaccaro, 28, in November and filed for divorce two months later. He immediately declared that it was a mistake and said that he had fired members of his legal team for filing the paperwork without authorization.
“Unfortunately, after being ‘humiliated’ in front of friends and family when his friend Sophie Hall knocked him back during a friendly football lesson, Tyreek became enraged and forcefully and decisively pushed Mrs Hall, seriously fracturing his leg.”
In response to the lawsuit, Collins said Hall’s injuries were already being addressed by a pending insurance claim and that Hill was cooperating fully, having done nothing wrong.
‘Ms Hall’s solicitor previously attempted to claim that Mr Hill caused Ms Hall to fall, but this was unintentional and denied that Ms Hall fell onto a dog while on Mr Hill’s property.
“Then, in a subsequent conversation, Ms. Hall’s lawyer admitted that she did, in fact, fall on a dog while on Mr. Hill’s property,” he told DailyMail.com.
Calling the lawsuit a “scare tactic,” Collins fumed: “The allegation of intentional torts in this lawsuit that they know did not occur is disgusting and clever.” ‘This lawsuit is baseless and is nothing more than an attempt to give Mr. Hill bad publicity and force him to pay them and their clients. ‘Mrs Hall and her lawyer are well aware that there were several witnesses who observed exactly how she suffered her injuries.
“Mr. Hill is prepared to defend himself head-on against this baseless lawsuit.” Hill’s stellar football career has been marred by controversies dating back to 2015, when he was kicked off the Oklahoma State team for strangling his then-fiancee Crystal Espinal while she was pregnant with her first child, Zev Carter.
In 2019, Kansas City suspended him over alleged child abuse allegations, but he was reinstated after he pleaded not guilty and a district attorney determined there was insufficient evidence to prove he broke Zev’s arm.
Months later, Espinal took Hill to court to prove that he was the father of twins Nakeem and Nyla, the first of multiple paternity lawsuits that the speedy phenom has been hit with over the years.
Those red flags didn’t stop the Chiefs from signing Hill to a three-year, $54 million extension before he caught nine passes for 105 yards to spark their 31-20 comeback victory in Superbowl LIV.
Hill joined Miami in 2022 in a blockbuster trade, signing a record four-year, $120 million extension for a wide receiver.
Off the field, however, he got into another fight when he was caught on CCTV in June 2023, allegedly slapping a Miami marina employee who refused to press charges.
A former flame, Brittany Lackner, came forward in January 2023 and claimed that Hill was the father of her young son, Soul Corazon Hill. She criticized him for allegedly offering her only $2,500 a month, which she said was “woefully inadequate” for someone with an annual salary of $30 million, but the couple has since reached an agreement.
A second alleged baby mama, Kimberly Baker, came forward last May and claimed that a paternity test would prove that he had fathered her newborn daughter, Trae Love Hill. Hill married his on-again, off-again fiancee Keeta Vaccaro, 28, in November and filed for divorce two months later.
He immediately declared it a mistake and said he had fired members of his legal team for submitting the paperwork without authorization.
On January 3, a fire tore through Hill’s seven-bedroom mansion, causing an estimated $2.3 million in damage. Authorities said it was caused by a child playing with a lighter.
