  "account": "Tyreek Hill's chance to play for the Kansas City Chiefs this season appears to be over. A recent civil jury verdict has found him liable in domestic violence cases, making a potential return to the team difficult. On top of that, Hill is still recovering from knee injuries, as confirmed by RotoBaller. With the calendar now in November, he is far past the October return target set by his agent, Drew Rosenhaus. At 31 years old, Hill has not signed with any NFL team. Fantasy managers should look elsewhere for help due to these issues. The legal troubles add a significant amount of risk that no franchise wants to take on. Heavy.com reported that the jury verdict came from a confusing civil case. With Hill's knee injury and legal liability, the combination creates a wall that is nearly impossible to overcome. The Chiefs already have young talent on the roster that is not playing to its potential. ESPN's Dan Graziano wrote that the team has players like Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy, who were picked in the second and first rounds, respectively. Graziano stated that the Chiefs have high draft picks that should be the solution. Heavy.com noted that the Chiefs prefer using these existing players over signing a free agent, given that they have first-round picks waiting to step up. The front office knows this and is looking at the trade deadline, but they are not looking at Hill. Fans may want to believe that Hill will return to Arrowhead, but the facts do not support it. He is not on a roster, is injured, and faces serious legal scrutiny. The Chiefs will face the New York Jets on Sunday, Nov. 8, with their current squad.",
  "summary": "ESPN's Dan Graziano says the Chiefs have plenty of receivers. A civil verdict and knee injuries make Tyreek Hill's return to Kansas City highly unlikely.",
