Chiefs are trading six-time Pro-Bowl WR Tyreek Hill to the Miami Dolphins for five draft picks: a 2022 1st-round pick (No. 29), a 2nd-round pick (No. 50) and a 4th-round pick, as well as 4th- and 6th-round picks in the 2023 draft, sources tell ESPN.

But let’s remember that at ~28 years old Hill probably has as many or even more career red flags than AB did at that age.
I think it’s a reach comparison, but I also don’t entirely trust Hill’s judgment and am glad we have no exposure to his stupidity and behavior anymore.
Not to be BRC but I'll be BRC- Several yesrs ago I was bartending at a hotel bar and these coaches from a successful JUCO program sit at my bar. They were in town for some coaching convention. Anyway after a few drinks we start talking I find out what school they coach at and I bring up a kid they coached who had just committed to Nebraska. They tell me he's going to be the next Luke Kuechly (lol) they rave about how hes one of the best players they've ever seen. So i ask who's the best JUCO player they've ever seen. They said Tyreek Hill but one coach said he also had a ton of red flags. I thought he was alluding to the OSU incident. Its sad to say but even with just that incident was that really enough to drop him to the 6th round? Seems like theres guys who've done more that got drafted higher. The Chiefs locker room seems like a real close family and it didn't really seem like anyone was upset when he got traded. [Reply]
I truly wish I could find the clip - but nothing, and I mean nothing, tops that video of Tyreek chasing down and tackling that 10 year old kid who was playing with NFL players on a make a wish type deal. It was one of the most surreal things I have ever watched and the kids parents were really upset about it. [Reply]

It was very tough to find, I had to do some serious searching. Kurt Warner is the QB.

Holy ****. REP!
For context, this video came to light after a man who claimed to be this kid’s Dad tweeted out that Tyreek tackled his son at a charity event. After getting called out as a liar the guy posted the video. The tweets got taken down soon after (and scrubbed from a lot of places), but I found a place where someone copied the tweets. The parents completely pissed off reaction (also check the caption on the insta video) is the thing that always made this whole thing super surreal to me. Stuff like this just does not happen in the era of the NFL's hyperfocused PR.
Just utterly surreal to watch accompanied with Tyreek’s “can’t let him score” comment. [Reply]

Great work tracking that down, guys.
Giving him a little benefit of the doubt, it's POSSIBLE that he was trying to "fake" tackle like another guy just before it in the video and clipped the kid just enough to trip him up. But yeah, not a good look. [Reply]
