BCT Partners -- a consulting firm that specializes in DEI services and solutions -- announced the move Tuesday night ... saying project manager Ryan Caldwell's words during the altercation with the female Cheesehead were "highly offensive and misogynistic," which goes against the company's values.

The firm decided to cut ties after an internal personnel investigation ... and slammed Caldwell on his way out.

The Las Vegas Raiders will have a new head coach in 2025 ... they just fired Antonio Pierce.

Mark Davis made the move official on Tuesday afternoon, following a disappointing 4-13 season.

Ex-Alabama linebacker Keanu Koht will have a new team AND representation -- the former four-star recruit's agency just cut ties with him after he announced his decision to transfer.

A&P Sports Agency -- which handles NIL deals for college athletes -- tells TMZ Sports it decided to remove the junior from its client list this week ... and while it didn't go into detail on what specifically led to the move, it wished him the best in all his future endeavors.

Maggie Wheeler ain't holding any grudges about getting fired from Ellen DeGeneres' sitcom after one season back in the '90s -- so much so, she’s totally on board with another shot in Hollywood for the talk show host!

We caught up with the actress, and she says Hollywood's all about giving second, third, and even fourth chances. So, by her standards, a brilliant comedian like Ellen should have no trouble making a comeback after those toxic workplace allegations got her canceled.

Robert Saleh has emerged after being fired by the New York Jets last week ... making a quick run to Whole Foods in New Jersey -- but it sounds like he's ready to stop roaming the aisles with a shopping cart and get back to work.

The recently unemployed coach hit up the grocery store in Florham Park on Tuesday ... and as he was heading to his car with a bag of goods, photogs checked in on how he's doing.

"Living the dream, brother," Saleh replied.

"The Godfather" could have turned out to be a completely different flick, because it turns out Al Pacino was very nearly given the axe from his iconic portrayal of Michael Corleone!

The role eventually landed Al an Oscar nom, so it’s wild to think the studio initially wanted Ryan O’Neal, Robert Redford, or Warren Beatty instead. And, even after director Francis Ford Coppola championed Pacino for the gig, the journey to prove the naysayers wrong was super rocky.

Al spills the tea in his memoir "Sonny Boy" ... saying just a week and a half into filming, Francis dropped the bomb that Paramount wasn’t feeling him for the role.

You can probably cross Bill Belichick off the list of potential replacements for Robert Saleh -- the legendary head coach pulled no punches when sharing his thoughts on the New York Jets' recent change on the sidelines ... claiming it was yet another rash decision made by the team's owner, Woody Johnson.

The eight-time Super Bowl winner went in on the state of the organization during his second-quarter appearance on the "Manningcast" with Peyton and Eli ... saying point blank, he's no fan of Gang Green -- especially after Saleh got the boot a week ago.

"Coach Saleh did a good job with that program," Belichick said during "Monday Night Football."

Peppers was booked for four separate charges ... including domestic violence against his girlfriend and cocaine possession. However, Kraft noted Peppers' stance that the claims made against him were untrue ... and he believes in doing due diligence before jumping to a decision.

Joaquin Phoenix isn't the only Joker on the streets these days ... a Brazilian man has taken inspiration from the crime thriller to wreak havoc on his former employer.

Check it out ... a man swings by a gas station where he used to work, and declares he's been driven insane by his termination. As you can see, the ex-employee is dressed as Batman's famed nemesis ... including green hair, white face paint, and a jarring red smile made from what appears to be lipstick.

The culprit then channels the comic book villain by smashing up the business in the name of revenge ... as his former colleagues hide inside.

Robert Saleh is opening up on the New York Jets' decision to go with a new head coach ... and he took the high road, expressing nothing but appreciation to the organization for giving him a shot.
