Josh Allen is on an all-time hot streak after winning NFL MVP and signing a $330 million contract extension ... but he says those milestones pale in comparison to the best moment of his offseason -- marrying Hailee Steinfeld!!

The Buffalo Bills quarterback met with the media in Orchard Park after tying the knot with Steinfeld over a week ago ... where he was asked to reflect on the last few months of his life.

"They've all been big," he said. "None other than marrying my best friend. She makes everything easier. I don't really focus on the other stuff, that was the most important decision I'll make in my life, and I made the right one."

Aaron Rodgers just confirmed the ring he's been wearing on that finger is, indeed, a wedding band!!!

Stefon Diggs was just bombarded by questions about his now-infamous May boat ride ... but the New England Patriots star rebuffed them all -- saying he wanted to keep his "personal life personal."

Diggs met with reporters on Tuesday for the first time since he was seen on video appearing to offer a pink substance to bikini-clad women on a yacht over Memorial Day Weekend ... and it didn't take long for the journalists to unleash queries about the incident.

They first wanted to know what exactly was in the bag in the footage -- but Diggs, who had just wrapped a workout with his new team, declined to get into any sort of specifics.

Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce's "Love Story" wasn't the main focus of a recent event ... 'cause a different couple was getting married, and they just looked on!

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.

Former Titans offensive lineman Taylor Lewan definitely made the correct career choice as a football player, 'cause the 3x Pro Bowler threw out one of the WORST first pitches ever!

It all went down Thursday night at Busch Stadium out in The Lou. Lewan -- alongside his "Bussin' With The Boys" co-host Will Compton -- were given the honors of throwing out the ceremonial first pitch during the pregame festivities.

Unfortunately for Lewan, his throw went about as badly as it could. Toeing the rubber, the lefty had the ball sail on him to the spectators hanging out near the backstop ... and the embarrassment was immediate.

Those ready to name A.D. the G.O.A.T. are in luck ... Aaron Donald spoke to TMZ Sports this week about his "best ever" candidacy -- and he made it clear, he's not going to fight anyone who wants to give him the label.

Donald, of course, retired from the NFL last year, and ever since he hung up his spikes ... fans have wondered if he has a legit claim to the title of greatest defensive player ever.

He did, after all, earn 10 Pro Bowl selections in 10 seasons ... and won a Super Bowl too. But with guys like Lawrence Taylor and Reggie White having pretty good resumes as well, we had to ask Donald while he was out at Raising Cane's event in Los Angeles on Tuesday what he thought of the chatter.

Aaron Rodgers isn't hanging up the cleats just yet ... the 20-year NFL veteran is going to join the Pittsburgh Steelers for the 2025 season.
