Cleveland Browns

Myles Garrett might be dating Chloe Kim, but he made it clear he's never gonna take it easy on her in competition -- crushing the Olympic gold medalist in a race ... backwards!!

The superstar snowboarder shared the footage on Thursday ... showing the lovebirds lined up for a sprint at a training facility, but the Cleveland Browns defensive end was facing the opposite direction.

To be completely fair to CK, she didn't seem anywhere close to 100% ... and she was wearing street clothes.

Shedeur Sanders is a household name in the football world, but at least one cop in Ohio couldn't recognize him earlier this month ... as new police video, obtained by TMZ Sports, shows an officer initially had no idea he was performing a traffic stop on Deion's son.

Check out the footage -- after cops pulled over Sanders in Medina County, Ohio, for allegedly going 91 MPH in a 65 zone ... the NFL quarterback handed over an out-of-state ID that perplexed one of the troopers who was interrogating him.

"What's with the Mississippi ID?" the cop asked.

Fans weren't the only ones stunned by Shedeur Sanders' monumental draft slide -- his former college teammates were also flabbergasted ... including Colorado Buffaloes linebacker Gage Goldberg.

We asked the 19-year-old LB -- son of WWE legend Goldberg -- for his thoughts as he watched Sanders, who was projected to go as high as third overall, fall to the middle of the 5th round, where the Cleveland Browns selected him with the 144th pick.

"We were all shocked, the whole team was," Gage told us.

Deshaun Watson's fiancée, Jilly Anais, is inching closer to gracing the pages of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue -- she's a finalist in the publication's rookie search!!

S.I. dropped the news Tuesday morning ... saying after reviewing thousands of open casting call submissions, it came up with its list of six hopefuls who will walk on the runway during Miami Swim Week.

Anais is among the most notable names ... as well as popular Peloton instructor Tunde Oyeneyin. Anais said she was "honored" to be asked back to the event ... and shared her excitement all over social media.

The newest sports power couple very well might've hard launched at an event over the weekend ... 'cause Myles Garrett and Chloe Kim were cute and cozy right in front of the cameras!!

The Cleveland Browns superstar and Olympic gold medalist snowboarder hit the Crunchyroll Anime Awards in Tokyo on Sunday ... decked out in sharp formal 'fits for the occasion.

Our sources say the two appeared to be quite couple-y during their walk on the orange carpet ... as if the pictures weren't enough indication there's a lot more going on between the two than a shared appreciation for Japanese animation.

Adarius Taylor -- a seven-year NFL veteran -- was arrested for child abuse in Florida ... TMZ Sports has learned.

According to jail records, 34-year-old Taylor was booked on two charges -- one count of negligent child abuse without bodily harm and one count of soliciting another for prostitution, lewdness or assignation.

He was released on Sunday after posting bond, which was set at $6,000. We've reached out to officials for more information.

L.A. Rams star Quentin Lake is passing along some advice to Shedeur Sanders ... and given how similar the guys' NFL draft experiences were -- Deion's son would be wise to listen up.

The 26-year-old defensive back delivered a pump-up speech of sorts to the Cleveland Browns rookie just ahead of his first-ever pro practice on Friday ... and Lake made it clear, Sanders can find success as a late-round pick with a famous dad, just as he once did.

Lake -- the son of former All-Pro Carnell Lake -- went in the sixth round of the 2022 NFL Draft ... but he was able to go on to become a team captain and one of his squad's best players.

Cleveland Browns star David Njoku is clearly ready for the NFL season ... 'cause the Pro Bowl tight end put his incredible figure on full display during a visit to the beach in Miami!!

The 28-year-old ditched his shirt and rocked a pair of short black bottoms for the occasion ... and based on footage of his visit, he was in great spirits as he had his feet in the sand.

Njoku is apparently taking in as much free time as he can before preparations for the upcoming season ramp up in a few weeks ... as OTAs kick off later this month.

Shedeur Sanders will have a new look in the NFL (for now) -- the Cleveland Browns just revealed the former Colorado superstar is slated to wear No. 12 to start his professional career.

The organization just dropped the list of digits all the newcomers on the roster will wear for the 2025 season ... and as it turns out, the Hall of Famer's son did NOT get No. 2, which he rocked his whole life.

Instead, ninth-year wide receiver DeAndre Carter is the new owner of the deuce ... as vets likely have first dibs in the conversation, even if Sanders was one of the most popular players in the 2025 class.

Cleveland Browns linebacker Devin Bush -- a top-10 pick in the 2019 NFL Draft -- was arrested on Sunday in Pennsylvania.

Court records -- obtained by TMZ Sports -- show the former Univ. of Michigan standout was thrown behind bars in Allegheny County on two separate charges ... simple assault and harassment.

According to the police criminal complaint ... Bush's girlfriend told cops the football player smashed her phone during a heated dispute Sunday morning.

Football fans around the world were baffled when projected first-round pick Shedeur Sanders fell all the way to Day 3 in last weekend's NFL draft ... but former Browns great Eric Metcalf thinks it's a blessing in disguise -- telling TMZ Sports the QB can now play "carefree."

We caught up with the former Browns running back and wide receiver ... and he seems certain the former Colorado superstar's stock plummeted to No. 144 not because of his talent -- but his overwhelming confidence.

"All of the scouts, all of the teams said that he was accurate, he could throw the ball ... everything you wanted from a quarterback,” Metcalf said. "And for him to not get drafted in the first, second or third round is kinda a slap in his face and we all know what it was about."

Pack up the tin foil hats and UFO paraphernalia ... NFL agent Leigh Steinberg tells TMZ Sports the conspiracy theory that owners blackballed Shedeur Sanders during last weekend's draft is "nonsense."

The former Univ. of Colorado signal-caller, of course, was largely expected to be a first-round pick ... but tumbled all the way to the fifth round on Saturday -- which had people racing to social media to accuse franchises of colluding with one another to keep Deion's son down.

Steinberg, though, told us this week there's just no way that actually happened.

Shedeur Sanders is 10 toes down in Northeast Ohio ... the Cleveland Browns' notable fifth-round selection just arrived at the team's facility after a whirlwind draft weekend.

Sanders posted video to his Instagram on Tuesday ... showing him working his way through the team's building in Berea with a black duffel bag over his shoulder.

It comes 72 hours after the 23-year-old saw one of the most shocking draft slides in recent memory. After many expected he could go as early as the top five, he didn't hear his name called until the final day of the event.

Deion Sanders isn't letting his son's NFL draft waiting game ruin his spirits ... telling TMZ Sports the Man Upstairs is just as great as he was before Shedeur fell to the fifth round.

We caught up with the Colorado Buffaloes head coach and Hall of Famer at LAX fresh off Shedeur joining the Cleveland Browns with the No. 144 pick ... and despite all the chatter surrounding how it played out, he hammered home a message of faith.

Deion was in good spirits about it all ... saying, "You know how good God is" when asked if he was pleased with how things turned out.

Shedeur Sanders may have slipped pretty far down into the draft ... but, that didn't diminish his party spirit at all -- 'cause he threw a star-studded event to celebrate his achievement.

The Cleveland Browns' newest QB held the party at Hyde & Seek -- a popular restaurant in Dallas ... looking fashionable in a black tank top, tons of jewelry hanging off him and a backwards Browns cap.

Sanders looks like the life of the party at the event ... drawing a ton of eyes with his big smile -- and even thrilling members of the crowd -- like Yung Miami -- with his music skills.

The New York Giants' decision to choose Jaxson Dart over Shedeur Sanders has ruffled some feathers, but two-time Super Bowl champ Brandon Jacobs tells TMZ Sports the G-Men made the right move, saying the ex-Ole Miss QB is a better fit for the team!

Jacobs -- Giants running back from 2005 to 2011 -- expressed adulation for his former team's first-round picks during the NFL Draft on Thursday, after they selected Abdul Carter at No. 3, before trading up to land Dart at 25.

"I give them an A+," Jacobs said of the Giants' draft day. "No question, A+."
