For the first time since being arraigned on a second-degree attempted murder charge ... TMZ Sports has learned that Antonio Brown is set to leave the state of Florida ... with the former NFL star heading out west to California.

According to court documents, AB's lawyer -- Mark Eiglarsh -- filed the motion on Tuesday. It asks the court to allow Brown to travel to Southern California "for a medical examination."

"Since his release, he has been fully compliant and has adhered to all terms and
conditions imposed by the Court," Eiglarsh said in the request.

A mansion once belonging to Antonio Brown has hit the market ... and if you happen to have a spare $4 million hanging around -- it can all be yours!!

TMZ Sports has learned the pad -- located along Lake Keystone in Odessa, FL -- was listed for sale on Wednesday. AB owned it until he gave it up as part of his bankruptcy proceedings to pay back his creditors

Aaron Rodgers isn't retiring this year, cause if he wanted to walk away, he would've done it already ... so says NFL great Warren Moon, who tells TMZ Sports the quarterback still has what it takes to play!

Of course, 42-year-old Rodgers' future is up in the air as the future Hall of Famer hasn't committed to playing next season for the Steelers or for any other team.

Moon, who's already in Canton, fully believes Rodgers won't be hanging up his cleats ... saying the signal-caller likes keeping himself in the mix.

"I think he wants to come and I think he is gonna come back," Moon told Michael Babcock. "If he was gonna retire, he would have done it by now."

A Detroit Lions fan is going scorched earth in court after his viral sideline clash with Steelers star DK Metcalf -- and he’s swinging for a MASSIVE payday.

Michigan man Ryan Kennedy filed a lawsuit in Wayne County Court on Tuesday … demanding a jaw-dropping $100 million over a Dec. 21 dust-up with Metcalf at Ford Field that blew up across the internet.

Kennedy is now turning to the courts … going after Metcalf, the Pittsburgh Steelers, ex-NFL wideout Chad Johnson, Shannon Sharpe's Shay Shay Media, and more … claiming they spread what he calls "defamatory and life-altering" claims about him after the incident.

Willie Parker admits he was shocked at Mike Tomlin's decision to step away from the Pittsburgh Steelers after 19 seasons ... but tells TMZ Sports he has no doubt the Super Bowl-winning head coach will once again roam an NFL sideline!

We spoke to the former Steelers running back star shortly after Tomlin made the tough decision to resign ... bringing an end to his reign as the NFL's longest-tenured coach after nearly two decades without a losing season.

"Man, it was surprising," Parker told us on Tuesday.

The Mike Tomlin era in Pittsburgh has come to an end -- the Super Bowl-winning head coach has informed the Steelers he is stepping down as head coach.

Team President Art Rooney II confirmed the news minutes ago, saying Tomlin shared his decision in a meeting earlier on Tuesday.

"Obviously, I am extremely grateful to Mike for all the hard work, dedication, and success we have shared over the last 19 years," Rooney said. "It is hard for me to put into words the level of respect and appreciation I have for coach Tomlin."

C.J. Stroud didn’t just beat the Steelers on the scoreboard -- he got the last laugh, too.

The Texans’ QB trolled supporters of the black and gold hard after Houston’s 30-6 playoff win Monday night ... jogging off the field with a grin and shouting “You mad?” while laughing as boos rained down from the stands.

Ice cold.

Video of the scene shows Stroud soaking it all in as he heads toward the Acrisure Stadium tunnel, clearly enjoying the hostile environment after carving up the Steelers on their own turf.

Fans were hot ... but Stroud kept cool, flashing a smile.

Aaron Rodgers went to bat for his coach, Mike Tomlin, after the Pittsburgh Steelers' season ended in the Wild Card Round on Monday ... calling it an "absolute joke" to think the guy could get fired.

Rodgers met with the media following the Steelers' 30-6 loss to the Houston Texans, and despite it being Steel City's seventh playoff loss in a row, he can't wrap his head around the chatter Tomlin's tenure might be over.

"The way that the league is covered now, the way there is snap decisions and the validity given to the Twitter experts and all the experts on TV now who make it seem like they know what the hell they are talking about, to me that's an absolute joke," Rodgers said.

DK Metcalf's season could've ended when the NFL suspended him two games for hitting a Lions fan -- but it didn't -- and now he's got a chance to make amends, according to a 2x Super Bowl champ!

TMZ Sports talked to Charlie Batch, who not only played 11 seasons in Pittsburgh but now covers the team, and he says things could've gotten ugly if the Steelers lost to the Ravens and missed the playoffs.

Steelers legend James Harrison says longtime head coach Mike Tomlin ain't goin' anywhere, telling TMZ Sports his job is "100% safe" for the 2026-27 season.

We spoke with the two-time Super Bowl champ ahead of Monday night's Texans vs. Steelers Wild Card game ... a matchup set up by Pittsburgh's stunning win over the Ravens last week.

In fact, the game's losing head coach, John Harbaugh, lost his job after taking the L.

Many people believe Tomlin could suffer the same fate with a loss in the playoffs, but Harrison doesn't think so.

Will Father Maximilian Maxwell return to Acrisure Stadium to bless the Steelers in the playoffs? Former Pittsburgh quarterback Charlie Batch believes so ... telling TMZ Sports he hopes the team keeps the faith!!

Batch -- a Steelers backup from the Super Bowl XL and XLIII teams -- watched Father Max use holy water on the field on Sunday ... hours before the Ravens missed a game-winning field goal kick to secure a spot in the postseason.

With how that all ended up, Batch believes Father Max will be back for the Steelers' Wild Card matchup against the Houston Texans on Monday.

"There's a lot of Steelers fans who truly believe there was help above," Batch said.

Not only are the Ravens fighting to keep their season alive on Sunday, Super Bowl champ Jamal Lewis tells TMZ Sports the pressure is on John Harbaugh -- who could be coaching for his career.

We chopped it up with Lewis ahead of the last game on the NFL slate for the 2025-26 campaign ... and he says while the stakes might be high for Harbaugh, that's when he flourishes.

"Coaches make different decisions when their back is against the wall," Lewis said. "He's a great coach. He's done a great, great, great deal in Baltimore. He has a great legacy in Baltimore and he's done it, you know, he's got it done."

Lewis went on to say every good coach faces seasons with different hurdles ... it's all about how they respond to that adversity.

The Baltimore Ravens can solidify a spot in the playoffs if they beat the Pittsburgh Steelers in a winner-take-all showdown ... and franchise great Jamal Lewis says the key to victory is simple -- Derrick Henry.

The division rivals meet Sunday night at Acrisure Stadium to determine who's gonna take home the AFC North.

It won't be an easy road game for the Ravens ... but Lewis -- who won Super Bowl XXXV with Baltimore -- laid out the blueprint on how they can overcome the wild Pittsburgh fans, Mike Tomlin's coaching skills, and Aaron Rodgers' veteran experience.

DK Metcalf has been hit with a hefty punishment for his role in an altercation with a Detroit Lions supporter on Sunday ... with the NFL suspending the Pittsburgh Steelers receiver two games.

The penalty was announced on Monday -- the league said the ban was for "conduct detrimental to the NFL for initiating a physical confrontation with a fan."

12:18 PM -- Ryan Kennedy is coming out against the claims he reportedly used a slur towards Metcalf during Sunday's game -- with his attorney issuing a statement Monday afternoon -- denying those allegations.

"At no point before, during, or after the incident did Mr. Kennedy use racial slur or hate speech of any kind," a statement provided to TMZ Sports said. "The claims suggesting otherwise are untrue and are not supported by video evidence, eyewitness accounts, or any contemporaneous reporting."

"Despite reports in the media last night and today, Mr. Kennedy has not used such language during any interaction with Mr. Metcalf or any other players in the past."

The statement concluded by saying that, since "this matter will now likely be the subject of formal legal proceedings, Mr. Kennedy will not comment further at this time."

The Detroit Lions fan on the receiving end of a punch from Pittsburgh Steelers star DK Metcalf is speaking out ... insisting he simply called the player by his full name before the incident -- but DK is reportedly claiming something much worse was said.

The Detroit Free Press found the man in the stands after everything went down on Sunday ... and he told the outlet he was "a little shocked" by what happened.

"He doesn't like his government name. I called him that and then he grabbed me and ripped my shirt. I'm a little shocked. Like everyone's talking to me. I'm a little rattled, but I just want the Lions to win, baby."
