Detroit Lions

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.

Jared Goff's family has officially grown by one ... his wife, Christen, just gave birth to their first child!!!

The couple announced the amazing news on Tuesday on their Instagram pages ... revealing their new daughter's name is Romy Isabelle Goff.

The duo included a bunch of pictures of the two with their little bundle of joy ... and they both looked like they couldn't have been happier to be new parents.

In fact, in one of the snaps, Jared already had a cap on that read, "Girl Dad."

The Detroit Lions' 2025 season was just dealt a huge blow before a single pass was thrown ... their All-Pro center, Frank Ragnow, announced he's hanging up his cleats, saying it's "time to prioritize my health and my families future."

The 28-year-old confirmed reports Monday morning, writing in an Instagram post that "the past couple of months have been very trying as I've come to the realization that my football journey is ending."

"I have given this team everything I have and I thought I had more to give, but I simply don't," Ragnow wrote, adding ... "I have to listen to my body and this has been one of the hardest decisions of my life."

Andy Isaac -- a popular Detroit sports fan -- has passed away after a nearly two-decade battle with cancer.

The announcement was made to his X account Thursday morning ... with his loved ones saying, "Andy passed away peacefully this morning beside his loving family. We thank you all for your support and love over the years."

The news comes on the heels of Isaac announcing he was entering hospice care, as his battle with the disease "has finally taken its toll on me, it has finally stripped me of my quality of life."

Losing Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn will NOT be the end of the Lions ... at least, that's what Calvin Johnson is saying -- as the Detroit legend tells TMZ Sports he's confident his squad will recover.

The 15-2 team, of course, was poached by the Bears and the Jets this offseason ... when the duo nabbed Ben Johnson and Glenn for their vacant head coaching positions.

The two coordinators were pivotal in helping bring success to the Lions' offense and defense -- although when we talked to Megatron on Friday, he was pretty sure his old team would figure out a way to replace them in 2025.

Big Sean is in shambles over the Detroit Lions' early playoff exit, straight up telling TMZ Hip Hop, he doesn't know what the f*** happened to his squad!!!

We caught up with Sean this week at the signing of his new "Go Higher" self-help book, but the Detroit MC didn't have much advice for his squad ... better luck next year?!?

The team's January 18 Divisional L against the Washington Commanders went viral in the face of LiAngelo Ball's "Tweaker" performance ... causing Cam'ron to question the Lions' marketing brand -- and their choice not to use Eminem or Big Sean!!!

Eminem is not the plaintiff in the lawsuit. Eight Mile Style controls his early catalog, and therefore, filed the suit. We're told Em does not have ownership in Eight Mile Style.

Eminem's ride or die for his home state, but not when it comes to a Ford dealership in Michigan using his biggest hit to sell limited edition trucks.

Eight Mile Style, which controls part of Em's music catalog, fired off the lawsuit Monday against LaFontaine Ford St. Clair -- which owns multiple car dealerships -- over an online ad it started running last fall to promote a limited edition Detroit Lions Ford F-150 pickup truck.

The ad is not only scored with "Lose Yourself," but it also features a caption that reads, "You only get one shot to own a Special Edition Detroit Lions F-150."

Terrion Arnold's crummy January got a whole lot worse on Thursday ... when he took a scary tumble down a flight of stairs at his house.

Just days after the Detroit Lions cornerback lost a massive playoff game to the Commanders, he nearly hurt himself while heading down some steps ... and the fall was all captured on one of his home's video cameras.

Arnold actually posted the footage to his social media page ... and you can see, just as he gets to the top stair, he slips, and then slides the whole way down to the bottom.

Calvin Johnson -- a guy who knows a thing or two about great wide receiver play -- is loving what Amon-Ra St Brown's doing this year ... telling TMZ Sports the Lions wideout is helping keep the NFC's top seed on track!

We caught up with the legendary Detroit receiver ahead of his former team's Divisional Round matchup against Jayden Daniels and the Commanders ... and he gushed over ASB.

He told us that while Dan Campbell deserves a whole lot of credit for getting things going in the Motor City ... it's St. Brown who's carried over the head coach's message onto the field.

Hall of Famer LeRoy Butler says there are precisely TWO NFC teams that can defeat the surging Lions squad ... and they just happen to be playing each other this weekend!

"The only two teams can beat Detroit are [the Packers and Eagles]. Nobody else can beat Detroit. No, it's impossible," the Green Bay legend told Babcock on the TMZ Sports TV show (airs nightly on FS1).

Why?

Amon-Ra St. Brown's prep for the playoffs apparently included a box of hair dye and some NBA tickets ... 'cause a little more than a week before Detroit kicks off its postseason run, he colored his hair and hit up a Pistons game!!

The Lions superstar pulled up to Little Caesars Arena on Thursday night with his teammate Jahmyr Gibbs for Detroit's tilt with Steph Curry's Warriors ... and the guys showed no signs of nerves as their team gets set for a potential journey to the Super Bowl.

St. Brown showed off a new blue hairdo ... and even quipped to a sideline reporter that his girlfriend "loves" the way it looks.

Amon-Ra St. Brown and the Detroit Lions easily handled the Minnesota Vikings to secure a first-round bye in the playoffs on Sunday ... but they were definitely tweakin' in the locker room after the game -- thanks to LiAngelo Ball's new viral rap song!!

The top-seeded Lions dominated their NFC North opponents in a 31-9 victory ... and following the successful outing, the whole Detroit locker room got in on the latest craze -- the middle Ball brother's new "Tweaker" hit, which has spread like wildfire in the past week.

ASB shared footage of the celebration ... showing him vibing out to G3's track as his teammates rapped and danced along.

Not even the Golden Globes could stop Dax Shepard from cheering on Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions on Sunday night ... check out some vid Kristen Bell shared from the famed awards ceremony, the actor was seen ignoring speeches to watch his beloved NFL team!!

The scene all played out as the Lions were battling with the Minnesota Vikings for first place in the NFC North while Harrison Ford and Anthony Mackie were onstage in Los Angeles presenting an award.

Most of the crowd at The Beverly Hilton was locked in on who'd win Best Animated Feature ... but when Bell panned her camera around to her Michigan-native husband, he was glued to his phone -- which was showing the first half of Detroit's huge "Sunday Night Football" matchup at Ford Field.

Vikings vs. Lions is one of the most consequential regular season NFL games in league history ... a game so important, there surely will be no choreographed dancing from Camryn Bynum and his teammates, right?

WRONG!

TMZ Sports caught up with the standout defender just days before the highly anticipated matchup between the 14-2 squads -- which will determine the NFC North winner and recipient of a first-round playoff bye (while the loser will be the 5th seed!) -- and asked the 26-year-old safety if he had anything special planned.

Jahmyr Gibbs fantasy football managers, rejoice ... the Lions superstar says he's fully prepared to take on the bell cow role in Detroit in wake of David Montgomery's injury, telling TMZ Sports, "it's nothing I'm not used to."

Gibbs, of course, already had a huge hand in Dan Campbell's backfield -- toting the ball 186 times this season -- but after Montgomery hurt his knee in Sunday's loss to the Bills, he's now expected to get the majority of the snaps going forward.

When we asked Tuesday if the 22-year-old was ready for that ... he didn't mince words -- and gave a resounding yes.

The Detroit Lions fan who squabbled with Matt LaFleur before a game last week has been punished ... he says his favorite team has revoked his season tickets over the altercation.

Fahad Yousif told WXYZ Detroit this week that his beloved squad made the decision just days ago ... informing him in an email that he'll no longer be allowed to be a season-ticket holder again.

Yousif said to the outlet he was devastated over the decision ... though he ultimately understood his behavior before the "Thursday Night Football" matchup with the Packers was inappropriate.
