Miami Dolphins receiver Tyreek Hill will not face any discipline by the NFL for his June incident at a Miami Beach marina, the league announced on Thursday.
Hill did not meet with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell on the matter, and “there will be no action taken by the league,” an NFL spokesman told USA TODAY Sports.
Hill will not be suspended and should be on track to play for the Dolphins during their season opener on the road against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sept. 10, despite not practicing Wednesday and Thursday due to excused absences.
“I just can’t make bonehead mistakes like that,” Hill said after the Dolphins' first training camp practice on July 26, two days after reaching a settlement with the other party in the matter.
Hill did not face any criminal misdemeanor battery charges. The Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office ended its investigation of the incident in late July.

The other party signed a non-prosecution form, indicating the person did not want to press charges.
The June 18 marina incident involving Hill, according to Miami-Dade police department, occurred after two disputes.
Hill was one of two men fishing on the marina’s dock for tarpon, which he was informed was illegal. Two women in Hill’s party also boarded a docked boat before paying for services, and were asked by the boat’s captain to exit because he did not want to be liable in the event of personal injuries, according to police.
The captain said Hill told him, "I can buy you and the boat" and "I’m No. 10 of the Miami Dolphins." The alleged victim was also approached by Hill’s associate and offered $200 following the incident, according to police.
“The issue has been resolved, and I’m currently cooperating with the NFL on what happened that day,” Hill said.
Hill, a Super Bowl champion with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2019, will begin his second season with the Dolphins as the highest-paid receiver in the NFL, making $30 million annually.
Hill caught 119 passes for 1,710 yards and seven touchdowns in 2022 for Miami last season.
