The NFL is back, and so — cringe — is Tyreek Hill. The two are tied, sadly, in a complicated knot. It's difficult to celebrate the early stages of a new season without fretting the uneasy re-emergence of the troubled star wide receiver.
After a disturbing offseason that included a child abuse allegation and police investigation into his 3-year-old son's broken arm, Hill is free to resume his career with the Kansas City Chiefs. The NFL recently opted not to suspend the former Oklahoma State standout, just as prosecutors in Johnson County, Kansas, previously had declined to charge him because of insufficient evidence.
