Baltimore Ravens

Jason Kelce was once a finalist for the "Sexiest Man Alive" ... but did you know he's got some major sax appeal too?!?

The Philadelphia Eagles legend joined the Baltimore Ravens' famous marching band on Monday night ... and he showed he's got the skills to delight thousands with a saxophone.

The former NFL center was front and center in the band as he did a bit for his gig as an ESPN "Monday Night Football" analyst ... and he looked like he knew what he was doing as he belted out the "MNF" theme song.

Ray Lewis had no problem playfully running his mouth at Andre Reed before their teams faced off on "Sunday Night Football" ... but after the Buffalo Bills pulled off an incredible comeback win over the Baltimore Ravens -- guess who's talking now??

TMZ Sports spoke with the Pro Football Hall of Famer fresh off his Bills' Week 1 victory ... and he had a fun response to the legendary linebacker, who warned him prior to kickoff of a "storm" making its way to Upstate New York.

"Ray knew what was up," Andre said Monday. "He's coming to Buffalo, he's coming to the best fans in the NFL. The storm was coming, you're right -- it's not December. These two teams were a storm and it was here, but we had 70,000 plows ready for that storm and we cleared 'em out in the end."

11:05 AM PT -- The fan at the center of the incident has been indefinitely banned from the Bills' home stadium and any other NFL venue, according to reports.

Lamar Jackson is owning up to his role in a physical altercation with a fan in the Baltimore Ravens' season-opening game against the Buffalo Bills ... claiming while the spectator put hands on him first, he has to be better.

The moment happened in the third quarter of the "Sunday Night Football" matchup at Highmark Stadium ... when the guy slapped Jackson and teammate DeAndre Hopkins while they celebrated a touchdown near the stands.

Jackson retaliated by shoving the young man while the cameras were rolling -- a moment he wished hadn't happened.

Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills completed an incredible comeback to cap off the first Sunday of the NFL season ... but the quarterback noticed some fans missed out on all the fun -- and he shaded the folks who beat the traffic in his postgame interview.

The MVP sent the message to the fair-weather fans while speaking on the field with Matt Prater, who kicked the game-winning field goal after just signing with Buffalo earlier in the week.

At one point, Buffalo was down 40-25 with 11:42 remaining in the fourth quarter ... and some members of Bills Mafia had seen enough -- 'cause they made their way for the exit signs.

Michael Phelps is a man of his word ... 'cause one week after accepting the Baltimore Ravens' invite for some swimming lessons, he delivered!!

The Team USA GOAT met up with several members of the Ravens' roster at a local pool on Tuesday ... and showed them the ropes on how to get better in the water.

As we previously reported, guys on the squad asked Phelps for help after taking a dip in the new Under Armour Performance Center recovery pool ... and the diehard Baltimore fan happily volunteered to assist.

Baltimore Ravens cornerback Bilhal Kone suffered a horrific leg injury Thursday night in his very first NFL game ... with his left leg ending up perpendicular to his body after making a play on the football in a gruesome scene.

The play happened with 15 seconds left in the first quarter. Facing a 3rd and 10, Colts quarterback Daniel Jones took a shot at Ashton Dulin in the end zone.

As Dulin and Kone were battling for the football, the rookie corner fell to the ground ... as a fan in the stands captured the injury on camera.

Ask and you shall receive -- Marlon Humphrey and the Baltimore Ravens' plea to get swimming tips from Michael Phelps paid off ... 'cause the Olympic legend just said he's down to give them some lessons!!

Humphrey -- who agreed to a five-year extension with Baltimore in 2020 -- posted the initial request to his Instagram ... showing him and several of his teammates in the new recovery pool at the Under Armour Performance Center.

It was pretty funny ... with Humphrey, Ronnie Stanley, Kyle Hamilton and Charlie Kolar all urging the Olympic swimmer to help show them the ropes.

NFL free agent kicker Justin Tucker was just hit with a severe punishment ... being handed a 10-week suspension after a league investigation into misconduct allegations.

The 35-year-old -- who was released by the Baltimore Ravens back in May -- was accused by 16 massage therapists of acting inappropriately during sessions ranging from 2012-2016.

The league looked into the matter ... and on Thursday, announced the hefty ban.

Derrick Henry is already one of the best running backs in the NFL, but Adam Sandler just gave him an incentive to go even harder on the gridiron ... 'cause the "Happy Gilmore" actor says if the Ravens star hits 2,000 rushing yards this season -- he'll give him a movie role!!

Henry was on the "Dan Patrick Show" on Wednesday ... and at one point in the convo, the two got to talking about Sandler, as the host was rocking a "Happy Gilmore 2" sweatshirt.

It turns out Henry is a big fan of the Sandman ... so Patrick laid out a challenge -- if he hits 2k yards this year, he'll have the acting great find a way to get him in his next movie.

Darren Waller might be a year removed from the NFL ... but his body apparently didn't get the memo -- 'cause the former tight end looked shredded as ever at a fitness event in NYC over the weekend.

TMZ Sports obtained a video of the former Raven, Raider and Giant participating in HYROX's New York competition on Saturday ... a global fitness event that requires a bunch of different challenges -- which Lance Armstrong participated in a year prior.

In the clip, Waller executes some lunges while rocking a 20-lb bag on his shoulder ... all while his rock-hard abs make an appearance.

Justin Tucker has just been released by the Ravens ... though the Baltimore organization is adamant his departure is strictly due to his between-the-sidelines issues.

General manager Eric DeCosta just announced his team has parted ways with its longtime kicker ... though in a statement, he made no mention of Tucker's alleged misconduct involving massage therapists.

DeCosta called the move "incredibly difficult" ... and explained the shape of their current roster was the reason for moving on from the perennial Pro Bowler.

Lamar Jackson's gotta be quite the thespian to land a gig on "Power Book III: Raising Kanan" ... 'cause an actor on the show tells TMZ Sports the show's casting crew isn't easily impressed!!

TMZ Sports caught up with actor/comedian London Brown at LAX recently ... after it was revealed the Baltimore Ravens QB did a scene in the series as "E-Tone," a character the MVP describes as "dangerous."

Brown is thrilled to see Jackson branching out ... and mentioned if executive producer 50 Cent is a fan, then Jackson should come back for more!!

Dale Earnhardt Jr. doesn't wanna go toe to toe with Lamar Jackson over a trademark for the number eight ... with the racing superstar announcing he's making changes to his brand to appease the NFL MVP.

Dale Jr. attempted to file papers for a stylized version of the digit he used for the majority of his on-track career recently ... which was later protested by Jackson's legal team, as the Baltimore Ravens quarterback owns several trademarks related to the number.

Jackson's crew claimed granting Dale Jr. the trademark could hurt his business ... as his fans might mistakenly buy the NASCAR Hall of Famer's merch instead of his if approved.

Terrell Suggs has just been sentenced to probation over allegations he waved a firearm at a man during a 2024 altercation at an Arizona Starbucks.

The former NFL superstar learned the punishment inside a Maricopa County courtroom on Tuesday morning.

The judge in the case ordered Suggs to 18 months of supervised probation -- but told the ex-Baltimore Ravens pass rusher he "can get off in half that time ... if you've done everything you're supposed to."

Justin Tucker's wife is speaking out on the disturbing allegations made against the All-Pro kicker ... saying she is standing firmly in his corner through it all.

Tucker has adamantly denied any wrongdoing ... and this week, his wife, Amanda, broke her silence on the matter.

The Baltimore Ravens are breaking their silence on the sexual misconduct allegations leveled against Justin Tucker ... with the team's General Manager sailing the number of claims against their star kicker "serious and concerning."

Eric DeCosta met with reporters Tuesday morning ahead of the NFL Combine ... where they peppered him with questions on the JT situation -- in light of 16 masseuses coming forward to claim Tucker was inappropriate with them over the years.

"We're fortunate the league is doing an investigation," DeCosta said. "We'll wait as patiently as we can for as much information as we can, and we'll make our decisions based on that."
