A former NFL star has brutally claimed that Tyreek Hill's horrific knee injury is a result of 'karma' amid his ongoing domestic violence allegations.
During the Dolphins' win over the New York Jets, Hill suffered the gruesome injury after getting tackled by the sideline and landed on by an opposing player.
The team initially claimed that he had only dislocated his knee but further scans showed that he had also torn his ACL. He underwent surgery on Tuesday afternoon.
While many felt sympathy for the wide receiver, former NFL star Aqib Talib has since ripped into Hill and suggested it's 'karma' for his ongoing allegations.
Speaking on 'The Arena: Gridiron' podcast, he said: 'These football gods don't play no games. They do not play games, they don't make no mistakes.
'You got allegations of beating your wife… that s*** is real. I don't play like that… them football gods, they brutal. They don't make no mistakes… It's karma, man.'

Hill's estranged wife, Keeta Vaccaro filed for divorce on April 7 - one day after police responded to reports of an 'assault in progress' at their home.
The Dolphins wide receiver, who is believed to have as many as 10 kids, was not arrested following the incident, though Vaccaro's mother Alesia said he had acted 'aggressive and impulsive' after he allegedly hurled a laptop to the floor.
Divorce court documents obtained by TMZ have accused Hill of domestic violence on several occasions, including when Vaccaro was pregnant with their baby daughter Capri. He is also accused of spitting at her on one occasion.
The documents are part of the couple's ongoing divorce case. Through his attorney, Hill has denied the allegations and called them a 'smear campaign.'
The probe has not effected Hill's availability for any NFL games so far this season as the league continues to investigate the situation.
The couple wed in November 2023, but Vaccaro has alleged that Hill began getting physical with her just two months later in January 2024.
Vaccaro, the brother of former New Orleans Saints safety Kenny Vaccaro, said things escalated at a guest house in Southwest Ranches, Florida during a conversation about a postnuptial agreement.

Meanwhile, Hill recently broke his silence with a poignant message to supporters after suffering the shocking injury over the weekend.
Sharing a picture from his hospital bed, he wrote on Instagram: 'Keep your boy in your prayers. You guys have been awesome man.'
Hill continued, saying the 'entire NFL has been amazing, sending me lots of love, lots of prayers.'
'I'm absolutely honored, man, granted, the situation, but I love you guys so much,' he concluded. 'Hope to see you soon. Cheetah.'
