Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill has been making headlines off the field of late. Chief among those headlines is how many children he has fathered with multiple women within just a few weeks of one another.
As Bounding Into Sports reports, Hill has fathered at least six children (that we know of). Having just turned 30, it seems like there very well could be more offspring down the road. More little ‘cheetahs’.
But at six children? Hill is little more than an amateur right now. In fact, on a list of those NFL players who have fathered the most kids, he ranks pretty low.
Here is a list of the top NFL players with the most kids.
Marshall Faulk – 6
Marshall Faulk is widely regarded as one of the greatest running backs of all time. He was known for his versatility and contributions to “The Greatest Show on Turf” offense.
Faulk redefined the running back position by becoming the archetype for modern-day backs, showcasing his skills as a rusher, receiver, and blocker during his 12-year NFL career with the Indianapolis Colts and St. Louis Rams.
But the three-time Offensive Player of the Year was also versatile off the field. Faulk has six children, three with his former wife Lindsay Stoudt, and three more with three separate ex-girlfriends.
Adrian Peterson – 6
Adrian Peterson is regarded in some circles as one of the greatest running backs in NFL history. He is known for his exceptional athleticism, power, and record-breaking performances.
This includes a record-setting 296-yard game in 2007 against the San Diego Chargers. A former MVP and seven-time Pro Bowl selection, Peterson’s career highlights showcase his impact on the sport.
Like Marshall Faulk and Tyreek Hill on this list, his number of children matches the number of points awarded for a touchdown – six.
Peterson famously was accused of beating his then-4-year-old son in 2014. He was indicted on charges of reckless or negligent injury to a child but avoided a jail sentence after reaching a plea agreement.

Tyreek Hill – 6 Known
Tyreek Hill is a dynamic and highly skilled NFL wide receiver known for his exceptional speed and versatility on the field.
Drafted by Kansas City in the fifth round of the 2016 NFL Draft, Hill has made a significant impact with both the Chiefs and the Miami Dolphins, showcasing his ability to excel in various roles.
Already a Super Bowl champion and five-time Pro Bowler, he has also made a significant impact off the field. Hill has at least six children that he or the public are aware of, with baby mama drama seemingly cropping up weekly.
At one point this speed-burning gridiron legend was accused by various women of having fathered three kids, with three different mothers, born within a four-month time frame.
Just because you’re nicknamed the ‘cheetah’ doesn’t mean you have to indulge every request for a quickie.
Philip Rivers – 10
Philip Rivers played the bulk of his 17 seasons with the San Diego Chargers. He showcased exceptional skills and set numerous franchise records, including a remarkable career-high 503 passing yards in a game against the Green Bay Packers in 2015.
Despite never playing in a Super Bowl, Rivers retired as one of the most prolific quarterbacks in NFL history. He was an 8-time Pro Bowl selection.
A workhorse on the field, Rivers is also a workhorse off of it. He has 10 children. Unlike many others on this list, however, they are all with one woman – his wife Tiffany.
Tiffany was his high school sweetheart and the two married in 2001. One more child and they’ll have their own football team.

Willis McGahee – 10 Known
Willis McGahee, a former NFL running back, played 142 games over his career with notable stints on the Buffalo Bills, Baltimore Ravens, Denver Broncos, and Cleveland Browns.
He amassed impressive career stats, including 8,474 rushing yards and 65 touchdowns on 2,096 carries. McGahee did have an issue with fumbles during his career, compiling 29 over 10 seasons and losing 22 of them.
Willis also seems to have fumbled the Trojans one too many times. The last known count, a decade ago, had him at 10 kids by 9 different women.
Travis Henry – 11 Known
Travis Henry is a former running back who played for several teams, including the Buffalo Bills, Tennessee Titans, and Denver Broncos. He was highly skilled but also faced personal challenges off the field.
Henry rushed for over 6,000 yards in his career and was selected to the Pro Bowl in 2002. But his career was marred by multiple suspensions and various legal troubles.
Henry has fathered 11 children by 10 different women. The only reason he’s not batting a thousand is due to one of the women having twins.

Antonio Cromartie – 14 Known
Antonio Cromartie is a former cornerback known for his impressive career highlights, including being selected to four Pro Bowls and earning first-team All-Pro honors in 2007. That season he led the league in interceptions.
He played three seasons each for the San Diego Chargers and New York Jets, while seeing stints in Arizona and Indianapolis.
But it is off the field where he truly excelled. Cromartie is the Michael Jordan of fathering kids, laying claim to the most children in the NFL. He is Leonardo DaVinci and the maternity ward is his canvas.
He has 14 known children with 8 different women. In football terms, that’s two touchdowns and two extra points. What a legend.
