H2o Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 https://www.espn.com/soccer/story/_/id/39015679/dolphins-tyreek-hill-cover-disciplined-nfl-photographer-pay Quote "I told him I was going to cover his salary, whatever the NFL was going to pay him or whatever. I told him I was going to make sure that I do what's right and take care of you, make sure you're not out of a job. That's my guy." I'm not really a fan of Tyreek Hill as a person, but I thought this was rather decent of him. He grabbed a guy's phone after scoring a TD and did a backflip. Apparently the photographer worked for the NFL and the NFL informed him that he would be suspended afterwards. Hill said he going to cover the guy's salary which was lost due to what he did. Pretty decent to look out for the young man like that. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Jones Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 (edited) The kid who got canned posted up a nice piece on X detailing his career and his friendship with Tyreek…it was interesting. FWIW, Many people who replied to that post felt that the NFL was wrong for firing him, and that they should actually promote him to reach a young audience. Edit: for those of you that are on X, the kid’s handle is @kfitzsports and you can see the post I mention above there. The title of the post is “The journey continues” Edited December 1, 2023 by Bob Jones 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have worked and collaborated before in the past. Long relationship there. It's still nice. Don't get me wrong. He didn't have to, of course. But a bit different when it's a buddy as opposed to some random person IMO. 2 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 yeah, i don't buy this wasn't set up or something beforehand. hill and this kid have a history and the kid used to post all over social media clout chasing about he and Hill were buddies. he then used that to get ahold of other nfl guys to take their picture and make hype videos akin to any other kid on youtube. i would bet there is a lot more to this story than being reported and i know that the "nfl" does not pay much attention to this but they have a whole department who monitors the credentials of photographers, etc. his behavior might have also been a bit too much - as i have seen in his earlier posting where he interacts with players during games and does not maintain a professional demeanor. tl,dr: i think there is a lot more to this than whats shown. kids a known douche clout chaser. 5 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HereComesTheReignAgain Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 If you take away the multiple assaults on his pregnant girlfriend and the fact that he beat his toddler to the point of breaking his arm, you could make a case that Hill isn't that bad. *Until you realize that this whole thing was set up and the photographer is an idiot if he didn't know he would be fired for taking part.

The Jokeman Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Good on Tyreek but it doesn't make up for his past. Also I think the league was dumb to fire this guy but what do I know maybe they want to avoid future things from happening etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
