Tyreek Hill, a wide receiver for the Miami Dolphins, has become the subject of a lawsuit filed by Sophie Hall, an influencer and model, who claims he broke her leg after she held her own against him in a football drill.
The suit, which has come to light through documents obtained by the Daily Mail, points to an incident during which it is claimed Mr. Hill applied excessive force during a casual game of football, resulting in serious injury to Ms. Hall.
According to the lawsuit, the events unfolded in the backyard of Mr. Hill’s residence where Ms. Hall sustained a fractured right leg after being charged at by the NFL player. The legal complaint articulates that Mr. Hill’s actions were a response to a previous play where Ms. Hall, known for her content creation on the platform Only Fans and standing at 6’1”, held her ground against Mr. Hill’s athletic prowess.
“Ms. Hall did as instructed and on contact with the defendant, caused Hill to be pushed backward, garnering laughter from the witnesses present at the time, including the defendant’s mother, sister, friend and trainer,” the lawsuit alleges.
“Apparently embarrassed by his loss of stability as a result of contact by a woman during the ‘football play,’ Mr. Hill’s attitude changed and he became angry,” the lawsuit continues. “Defendant Hill charged into her violently and with great force, resulting in significant and serious injuries.”
The implication within the lawsuit is that Mr. Hill, presumably embarrassed by the unexpected outcome and in the presence of his friends, may have responded in a manner that exceeded the boundaries of friendly sportsmanship, thereby causing Ms. Hall‘s injuries.
The extent of Ms. Hall’s injuries appears significant, with the lawsuit indicating a requirement for surgical intervention involving metal inserts as well as an arduous period of physical rehabilitation. Ms. Hall‘s lawsuit against the football star encompasses charges of battery, assault, and negligence.
