Aaron Rodgers' awesome offseason kept right on rolling on Friday ... as he seemed to have a helluva time at Churchill Downs, smokin' stogies and hanging out with his good pal, Davante Adams!

The New York Jets superstar hit up the venerable race track in Louisville for the Kentucky Oaks one day before the Kentucky Derby went down ... and he looked like he was having a blast.

He was spotted enjoying a cigar -- and chatting it up with a bunch of famous people ... including Adams, who he was teammates with in Green Bay for nearly a decade.

Saquon Barkley's goin' in on New York fans who were irked at his presence at the 76ers vs. Knicks game in Philadelphia Thursday night, with the NFL star telling the supporters of his former team to get over him jumping ship!

"It’s been two months… lol no way ya can still be this mad! Mf can’t even go to a basketball game 😂😂😂," 27-year-old Barkley tweeted on X after he was heckled for attending the game at the Wells Fargo Center in the City of Brotherly Love, where he sat courtside with Eagles WR A.J. Brown.

Of course, Barkley -- drafted by the G-Men in 2018 -- signed with the Eagles ... the Giants hated rivals, this offseason.

Dak Prescott will not face criminal charges over allegations he sexually assaulted a woman seven years ago ... cops revealed Thursday they found insufficient evidence to pursue the case any further.

The deal is guaranteed through five years ... and will run through the 2033 season.

James Palmer, a former NFL Network on-air talent, made the report while chatting about the Chiefs' wide receiver room with Steve Smith on the ex-Carolina Panthers star's podcast on Wednesday.

Palmer said he knows for a fact Rice will receive a punishment from Roger Goodell after admitting to being behind the wheel of one of the cars that caused the accident. He then added that Reid, Mahomes and K.C. are bracing for, at minimum, an eight-game ban for the second-year wide receiver.

Travis Kelce puede ser el tight end mejor pagado de la NFL, pero es un poco simplón en comparación a lo que gana su novia Taylor Swift, algo que Jimmy Kimmel advirtió.

Jimmy Kimmel se burló de la extensión del contrato de 2 años del jugador de los Kansas City Chiefs durante el monólogo de apertura de su show esta semana. Aunque Travis va a recibir $34 millones con su nuevo acuerdo, Jimmy señala, y con razón, que es "dinero de goma" para Taylor y su patrimonio neto de mil millones de dólares.

Jimmy bromeó: "¿Te imaginas estar en una relación en la que ganas 34 millones de dólares y sigues siendo el novio arruinado?".

JK poked fun at the Kansas City Chiefs player's 2-year contract extension during the opening monologue for his show this week. While Travis is raking in $34 mil with his new deal, Jimmy rightly notes ... it's "gum money" to Taylor and her billion-dollar net worth.

Jimmy quipped ... "Can you imagine being in a relationship where you make $34 million and you’re still the broke boyfriend?"

O.J. Simpson's executor is ready to talk money with the people to whom Simpson died owing tens of millions of dollars -- but he's not making any promises about what the estate will pay them ... TMZ has learned.

Among the topics LaVergne says he wants to share with Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman's families -- O.J.'s living revocable trust, his last 2 years of federal tax returns, federal tax liens, cash and jewelry LaVergne took from O.J.'s house after he died and videos he shot of Simpson's residence.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are out of the honeymoon phase, and into the much more real "you're so annoying" phase of their relationship ... as she's seemingly cringing at one of her BF's frequent antics.

As we reported, Taylor and Travis stepped out in Las Vegas for Patrick Mahomes' charity event over the weekend -- and put on a loved-up display. However, one moment from the event is making the rounds online ... highlighting how the Grammy winner was seemingly less than impressed during one cringe moment for Trav.

When the tight end took the event stage and yelled/sang "Viva Las Vegas" into a microphone, Taylor appeared to say "That again. I can't do it" ... this according to expert lip reader Jackie Gonzalez.

Travis Kelce está reflexionando sobre haberse convertido en el tight end mejor pagado de la NFL, diciendo que está realmente agradecido por el histórico contrato, no solo porque allana el camino para su posición en los próximos años, sino que porque lo mantendrá "en casa".

Kelce llegó a un acuerdo por 34,25 millones de dólares por otros 2 años con los Kansas City el lunes, y en su podcast "New Heights" con su hermano Jason, no contuvo su emoción por quienes lo han llevado a este punto de su carrera, incluyendo los propietarios del equipo.

"La familia Hunt ha sido absolutamente increíble no solo conmigo y con la comunidad de Kansas City, sino que han sido muy generosos desde que estoy aquí y me han hecho sentir como en casa", dijo Kelce en el episodio.

Kelce agreed to a $34.25 million, 2-year extension with Kansas City on Monday ... and on his "New Heights" podcast with brother, Jason, this week, he poured his heart out for those who got him to this point in his career -- including team ownership.

"The Hunt family's been absolutely unbelievable to not only myself and this Kansas City community, but they've just been so generous since I've been here and making it feel like home," Kelce said on the episode.

Taylor Swift y Travis Kelce están en su luna de miel y al mismo tiempo diciéndose cosas mucho más reales en una relación, como "eres tan molesto", que aparentemente fue lo que Taylor dijo en respuesta a una de las típicas payasadas de su novio.

Como informamos, Taylor y Travis fueron a Las Vegas para el evento de caridad de Patrick Mahomes el fin de semana y pusieron todo su amor en exhibición. Sin embargo, un momento del evento se está haciendo viral en las redes, cuando la ganadora del Grammy aparentemente estaba algo menos impresionada con el despliegue de Trav.

Cuando el jugador de la NFL se subió al escenario del evento y gritó/ cantó "Viva Las Vegas" por el micrófono, Taylor pareció decir "Eso de nuevo. No puedo más", según la experta en lectura de labios Jackie González.

New York Jets star Sauce Gardner is letting out a big yawn after checking out Kendrick Lamar's new Drake diss ... saying after taking three weeks to drop, it should've been MUCH better.

Social media is freaking out over Kendrick's surprise response to Drizzy's "Push Ups" and "Taylor Made Freestyle" tracks on Tuesday ... with people torn between whether it was enough to give him the upper hand in the rap beef.

Gardner -- who says he appreciates both artists -- is clearly siding with the 6 God so far, 'cause he shared his opinion on Kendrick's "Euphoria" ... and it wasn't a very glowing review.

Xavier Worthy just made sure he'll never forget NFL Draft night 2024 ... getting a tattoo to immortalize the moment the Chiefs took him with their first-round pick.

The former Texas Longhorns wideout hit up a parlor over the weekend to get the ink done -- just days after Kansas City made him Patrick Mahomes' newest target.

In a video posted to his TikTok page, you can see Worthy had a Chiefs logo put down on his forearm ... as well as the letters and numbers "R:1 P:28" -- a nod to the 28th overall selection K.C. used to get him.

Worthy -- who ran a 4.21 40-yard dash at the NFL's scouting combine last month -- was clearly thrilled with how the artwork turned out ... sharing it with all of Chiefs Kingdom on his social media page.

Worthy, of course, is no stranger to going under the needle -- he's got plenty of tats all over his body ... including one of the NFL's shield just above his newest piece.

Logan Paul got an assist from the biggest superstar in the NFL during WWE's "Monday Night Raw" ... using Patrick Mahomes' "Super Bowl Rings" like brass knuckles in the middle of a match -- but the plan totally backfired!!

The Chiefs quarterback was a surprise guest at T-Mobile Center in Kansas City ... where he had a front-row seat for all the wild action.
