1:42 PM PT -- Great news ... Bills head coach Sean McDermott just told reporters Damien Harris has been released from the hospital and is currently resting at home.

McDermott added that Harris has been diagnosed with a neck sprain and is in the concussion protocol ... but he's "in good spirits."

Buffalo Bills running back Damien Harris was taken away from the field on Sunday night in an ambulance after sustaining a neck injury ... and the scene -- one that felt eerily similar to Damar Hamlin's on-field medical emergency -- was scary.

The 26-year-old was hurt in the second quarter of Buffalo's tilt with the New York Giants ... when he was trying to fight for a first down after taking a handoff from quarterback Josh Allen.

As he slammed his body into a pile of New York defenders ... he was wrestled to the ground -- and when he didn't get up, trainers raced in to tend to him.

They immediately stabilized him -- before strapping him to a backboard and loading him into an ambulance. At one point, he was able to give a thumbs up.

After the game, Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Harris, thankfully, has full movement of his extremities.

"Things are heading in a good direction right now for Damien," he said.

No further updates on his condition were released.

Hamlin, who, like Harris, required an ambulance to leave the field when he was infamously hurt during a game back in January, watched the scene unfold from the sidelines -- and appeared very concerned for his teammate.

"It's really an emotional thing," Bills offensive lineman Dion Dawkins told reporters after the game, "and people be trying to act like we're unhuman like ... that stuff is real."

"It's very real."

Aaron Rodgers gave Jets fans further hope that he can make a comeback this season ... looking good while throwing passes before New York's game Sunday.

The 39-year-old, who tore his Achilles during a game five weeks ago, was seen warming up with some teammates prior to the Jets vs. Eagles matchup ... and he didn't seem impaired at all.

He tossed the pigskin around ... and bounced a bit on both feet, before he headed off the turf.

It's the second time in the last few days that Rodgers has shown progress since doctors surgically repaired his leg ... earlier this month, he was seen walking around in the Jets' locker room without any use of crutches.

He, of course, has made it a goal to return at some point to the Jets this year ... this despite most people with similar injuries requiring around 12 months to get healthy.

He told Pat McAfee just days after he was hurt in September that he was going to do all he could to get back under center ... and he was hopeful his doubters would help him return.

2:06 PM PT -- Suzanne's rep tells us ... "Her family was gathered to celebrate her 77th birthday on October 16th. Instead, they will celebrate her extraordinary life, and want to thank her millions of fans and followers who loved her dearly. A private family burial will take place this week, with a memorial to follow next month."

Sources close to the late actress also tell us that Suzanne had recently been seeking treatment for her breast cancer out of state in the Midwest -- but we're told it proved to be unsuccessful and she was ultimately brought home.

Suzanne Somers has died after a long battle with cancer ... this according to her team.

The legendary actress -- famous from "Three's Company" and a score of other TV shows/movies -- passed away Sunday morning at her home ... so says her publicist, R. Couri Hay, who broke the tragic news to Page Six.

He says, "Suzanne Somers passed away peacefully at home in the early morning hours of October 15th. She survived an aggressive form of breast cancer for over 23 years. Suzanne was surrounded by her loving husband Alan, her son Bruce, and her immediate family."

It's a heartbreaking development for the showbiz icon ... who's been dealing with cancer, in one form or another, since the early 2000s. She was first diagnosed with melanoma in 2000 ... and developed breast cancer shortly thereafter. SS battled breast cancer on and off for years ... but it fully returned just earlier this year in the summer, when she told the world.

At the time, she wrote ... "As you know, I had breast cancer two decades ago, and every now and then it pops up again, and I continue to bat it down. I have used the best alternative and conventional treatments to combat it. This is not new territory for me. I know how to put on my battle gear and I’m a fighter."

Obviously, she'll best be remembered for her work on the famed ABC sitcom opposite John Ritter and Joyce DeWitt -- where she played the hilarious and ditzy Chrissy Snow for five seasons -- but her work spanned decades ... and was notable well beyond that.

Suzanne is also well-known for roles in "Starsky and Hutch," "Hollywood Wives," "She's the Sheriff," "Step by Step," and countless one-time appearances on several other hit series.

Movie-wise, her work on "American Graffiti" is her biggest claim to fame on the big screen -- but Suzanne starred in a number of films ... including "Ants!" "Yesterday's Hero," "Nothing Personal," "Serial Mom," "The Nutty Professor," "Say It Isn't So" and more. She hasn't acted since 2001, right around the time her health troubles surfaced.

Suzanne's death comes just one day before her 77th birthday. She's survived by her son, Bruce Jr.

She was 76.

RIP

2:06 PM PT -- El representante de Suzanne nos dice: "Su familia estaba reunida para celebrar su 77 cumpleaños el 16 de octubre. En su lugar, celebrarán su extraordinaria vida, y quieren dar las gracias a sus millones de fans y seguidores que tanto la querían. Esta semana tendrá lugar un entierro familiar privado al que le seguirá un memorial el mes que viene".

Fuentes cercanas a la fallecida actriz también nos dicen que Suzanne había estado buscando recientemente tratamiento para su cáncer de mama fuera del estado en el Medio Oeste, pero nos dicen que resultó ser infructuoso y finalmente fue llevada a casa.

Suzanne Somers ha muerto tras una larga batalla contra el cáncer. Esto según su equipo.

La legendaria actriz, famosa por "Three's Company" y una veintena de otros programas de televisión y películas, falleció el domingo por la mañana en su casa. Así lo dice su publicista R. Couri quien dio la trágica noticia a Page Six.

Dice: "Suzanne Somers falleció en paz en su casa en la madrugada del 15 de octubre. Sobrevivió a una forma agresiva de cáncer de mama durante más de 23 años. Suzanne estaba rodeada de su amado esposo Alan, su hijo Bruce y su familia más cercana".

Se trata de una noticia desgarradora para el icono del mundo del espectáculo que ha estado luchando contra el cáncer desde principios de los 2000s. Se le diagnosticó melanoma por primera vez en 2000 y poco después desarrolló cáncer de mama. Szanne luchó contra el cáncer de mama de vez en cuando durante años, pero regresó con fuerza a principios de este año durante el verano, cuando le dijo al mundo.

En ese momento ella escribió: "Como ustedes saben, yo tenía cáncer de mama hace dos décadas, y de vez en cuando aparece de nuevo, y vuelvo a luchar contra él. He utilizado los mejores tratamientos alternativos y convencionales para combatirlo. No es un terreno nuevo para mí. Sé como dar la batalla y soy una luchadora".

Obviamente, se la recordará sobre todo por su trabajo en la famosa comedia de la ABC junto a John Ritter y Joyce DeWitt, donde interpretó a la divertida Chrissy Snow durante cinco temporadas, pero su trabajo se extendió durante décadas con un gran éxito.

Suzanne también es conocida por sus papeles en "Starsky y Hutch", "Esposas de Hollywood", "Ella es el sheriff", "Paso a paso" e innumerables apariciones puntuales en otras series de éxito.

En cuanto al cine, su trabajo en "American Graffiti" es su mayor reclamo para la fama en la gran pantalla, pero Suzanne protagonizó varias películas, incluyendo "¡Hormigas!", "El héroe de ayer", "Nada personal", "Mamá en serie", "El profesor chiflado", "Di que no es así" y muchas más. No actuaba desde 2001, justo cuando aparecieron sus problemas de salud.

Suzanne fallece un día antes de cumplir 77 años. Le sobrevive su hijo Bruce Jr.

Tenía 76 años.

Madonna gave fans what they wanted Saturday night, firing up her "Celebration" tour at the 02 Arena in London, but it did NOT go off without a hitch.

The 20,000-seat arena was packed to the gills, and the fans were loving it, but 4 songs in, there were technical problems that literally stopped the music.

Madge seemed pissed, telling the crowd, "This is exactly what you don't want to happen on your opening night." She vamped, telling stories about her childhood while the problems were being resolved.

Things got back on track, and Madonna sang almost all her hits, including ... “Get Into the Groove,” “Holiday," "Live to Tell," "Bad Girl," "Erotica," "Blond Ambition," "Justify My Love," "Vogue," "Don't Tell Me," "La Isla Bonita," "Ray of Light," "Hung Up," oh, and "Like a Prayer."

During the show, Madonna brought out daughters Lourdes and Mercy, who danced during "Vogue."

Interesting ... there was no live band, but it seemed no one missed it. They were there for her.

The audience was multi-generational because remember ... she's been a huge star for 40 years.

The tour has been a long time coming. As you know, Madonna postponed it for several months after becoming seriously ill back in June with a bacterial infection.

Madonna dio a sus fans lo que querían el sábado por la noche, arrancando su gira "Celebration" en el 02 Arena de Londres, pero no estuvo libre de problemas.

El estadio de 20.000 asientos estaba a tope y los fans estaban encantados, pero luego de cuatro canciones, comenzaron los problemas técnicos provocando que la música se detenga.

La diva parecía enfadada, diciendole al público: "Esto es exactamente lo que no quieres que pase en tu noche de estreno". Ella vampirizó, contando historias sobre su infancia mientras se resolvían los problemas.

Las cosas volvieron a la normalidad y Madonna cantó casi todos sus éxitos: "Get Into the Groove", "Holiday", "Live to Tell", "Bad Girl", "Erotica", "Blond Ambition", "Justify My Love", "Vogue", "Don't Tell Me", "La Isla Bonita", "Ray of Light", "Hung Up", oh, y "Like a Prayer".

Durante el show, Madonna invitó a sus hijas Lourdes y Mercy, quienes bailaron durante "Vogue".

Algo notable es que no hubo banda en directo, pero parece que nadie la echó de menos.

Había público de todas las edades porque, recordemos, ella ha sido una gran estrella durante 40 años.

La gira se ha hecho esperar. Como saben, Madonna la pospuso durante varios meses luego de caer gravemente enferma en junio con una infección bacteriana.

Tara Reid says she learned a lot about herself while filming "Special Forces" ... and despite pulling out of the competition early on, she wants a second chance.

We got Tara outside Crossroads Kitchen in WeHo Thursday, filling us in on why she decided to take a stab at the brutally tough competition series -- mainly, she wanted to prove to herself that she was worthy after being the subject of bullying over the years.

The 47-year-old actress says she's down to try the grueling show again ... even though she pulled herself out of the competition on the 2nd day of training, but admits she didn't have a lot of time to prep before heading to New Zealand.

FYI, Tara tells us she's been getting emotional looking at all the support she's been getting from fans ... reading sweet comments about her determination.

Drake's dad, Dennis Graham, doesn't feel his son needs to speak out about the violence in Israel and Gaza because any commentary will be held against him in the court of public opinion.

We chatted it up with Dennis at LAX and certainly didn't seem like he'd spoken to Drake, who's Jewish, about his thoughts on the Hamas terrorist attack and Israel's military response -- but he's certain it's affecting Drake just like everyone else.

Drake's silence, in particular, has been a hot topic on social media thanks to DJ Vlad ... who's been calling out Drizzy and DJ Khaled, who's Palestinian, for not using their massive platforms to speak on the crisis.

Dennis says celebs get way more backlash when they publicly address hot-button issues, and he's certain Drake would be no different.

The proud papa was still in full support of his son's work, though -- rocking "For All the Dogs" merch from head to toe. He also assured us Drake will be okay ... referring to the stomach issues prompting his hiatus from music.

Drake said he may be gone for over a year, and Dennis is his dad, not his doctor -- but he echoed much of what Drake said ... it's minor, not major.

We also inquired about Drake's co-parenting routine, on the heels of him posting a big family photo with Adonis and Adonis' mom.

Piper Laurie -- la actriz nominada al Óscar -- ha fallecido… así lo confirmó su equipo.

Su mánager, Marion Rosenberg, confirmó su fallecimiento el sábado ante algunos medios y a Variety: "Fue una hermosa persona y uno de los grandes talentos de nuestro tiempo." Además, compartió con THR que ya llevaba un tiempo enferma, aunque no se reveló la causa exacta de su muerte.

Laurie fue una de las últimas estrellas de la era dorada de Hollywood, habiendo comenzado en el mundo del espectáculo en la década de 1950… actuó en películas junto a nombres muy famosos, como Donald O'Connor, Tony Curtis, Rock Hudson, Tyrone Power e incluso Ronald Reagan.

Hablando del difunto Presidente, con quien actuó en su película revelación, "Louisa", Laurie en alguna ocasión afirmó que había perdido su virginidad con él… y que incluso salieron durante un tiempo antes de Nancy. Durante aquella década estuvo enrachada… pero se tomó un descanso hasta 1961, cuando actuó junto a Paul Newman en "The Hustler", por la que recibió una nominación al Óscar a la mejor actriz de reparto.

Tras otra larga pausa, Laurie regresó a la pantalla grande con su memorable papel de Margaret White… la madre de Sissy Spacek en el clásico de terror, 'Carrie', por la que obtuvo otra nominación al Óscar a la Mejor Actriz de Reparto. Lo mismo ocurrió con "Children of a Lesser God" en 1986.

Otro de sus famosos papeles fue en la serie "Twin Peaks"… donde interpretó a Catherine Martell y a Mr. Tojamura. Su última actuación fue icónica. Ganó un Globo de Oro por su trabajo en 'TP'… además de un Emmy por una película de televisión.

La carrera de Laurie fue larga y próspera… actuando en otras películas enormes como "The Bunker", "Return to Oz" y más. Su aparición en televisión fue aún más prolífica… actuó en series como 'ER', 'Skag', 'The Twilight Zone', 'Traps', "Touched By an Angel", "Frasier", "Will & Grace", "Law & Order", "MacGyver"… y muchas otras.

Tenía 91 años.

Las verdaderas bombas de Jada Pinkett Smith continúan. Ahora está afirmando que la calvicie de Tupac no era coincidencia, ni tampoco era una declaración de moda ... en cambio, era una simple caída de cabello.

La última revelación de la actriz es cortesía de su entrevista en People Mag ... en la que acaba de dejar caer esta pepita de noticia el sábado. En su entrevista con ella justo antes del nuevo libro de Jada, la han citado hablando de la calvicie de Tupac -- con ella diciendo que padecía de alopecia.

Jada ha dicho, "No creo que Tupac haya hablado alguna vez sobre la alopecia que padecía", y explica que se le empezó a caer el cabello alrededor del año 1991 -- cuando tendría cerca de 20 años de edad -- poco después de que tuviera el famoso encontronazo con la policía del norte de California.

Continúa añadiendo, "Sus patrones de alopecia eran mucho más extremos que los míos. No creo que Pac haya hablado alguna vez sobre su alopecia, pero también se veía muy bien con la cabeza calva. Pero eso fue un tiempo y durante una época en la que tu no hablas -- el no hablaría de ello".

Una cosa en la que cree firmemente -- si Pac estuviera vivo al día de hoy ... probablemente hablaría acerca de ello abiertamente.

Esto es fascinante por un par de motivos ... en principio, parecería explicar la apariencia de la calvicie de Tupac en los últimos años de su vida, cuando era más famoso. Cuando era más joven y estaba en ascenso, lució notables peinados -- particularmente en la película "Juice".

También es interesante porque la alopecia fue aparentemente el centro de la bofetada de los Oscar el año pasado -- cuando Chris Rock hizo una broma sobre Jada, provocando que Will Smith se acercara y lo abofeteara.

La alopecia ha demostrado ser un tema delicado, e incluso ahora ... Jada piensa que Chris dio un golpe bajo al hace referencia a su condición. Aun así, Jada dice que no puede creer que Will haya hecho lo que hizo ... especialmente cuando la se refirió a ella como su "mujer", un término que dice que no había usado en años.

Por cierto, estas nuevas noticias sobre Tupac siguen a otro gran encabezado de principios de semana -- titulado, Jada llama al difunto rapero su "alma gemela" ... pero insiste en que ellos nunca se acostaron.

Jada Pinkett Smith's truth bombs continue -- now, she's claiming Tupac's bald look was no coincidence, nor was it a fashion statement ... but rather, just straight-up hair loss.

The actress's latest revelation comes courtesy of her People Mag interview ... which just dropped this nugget of news Saturday. In their sit-down with her ahead of Jada's new book, they have her quoted as talking about Tupac's baldness -- with her saying he had alopecia.

Jada says, "I don't think Tupac ever talked about the alopecia he suffered from," going on to explain that his hair started falling out around 1991 -- when he would've been about 20 years old -- shortly after he had a famous run-in with cops in NorCal.

She adds, "[H]is alopecia patterns were far more extreme than mine. I don't think Pac ever talked about his alopecia, but he also looked really good with a bald head. But that was during a time and during an era that you wouldn't -- he just wouldn't talk about it."

One thing she does firmly believe -- if Pac was alive today ... he'd probably talk about it openly.

This is fascinating for a couple reasons ... for starters, it would seem to explain Tupac's bald look in the latter years of his life, when he was most famous. While he was younger and on the rise, he rocked notable 'dos -- particularly in the film "Juice."

It's also interesting because alopecia was apparently at the center of the whole Oscars slap last year -- when Chris Rock cracked a joke about Jada, spurring Will Smith to get up there and slap him.

Alopecia proved to be a touchy subject, and even now ... Jada thinks Chris took a low blow by referring to her condition. Still, Jada says she couldn't believe Will did what he did ... especially when he called her his "wife," a term she says they hadn't used in years.

BTW, this new Tupac news follows yet another big headline from earlier in the week -- namely, Jada calling the late rapper her "soulmate" ... but insisting they never banged.

Bill Maher went on a tear against social media Friday night, saying it's a colossal misnomer, because it should be called "anti-social media," and it's destroying our civilization.

Scoff at the 'Real Time' host if you want, but it's hard to argue the point ... when it comes to human interactions, we have jettisoned it because it's easier to live a lazier life with our iPhones.

BTW, Bill's not alone. The Surgeon General of the United States has said there's a crisis of loneliness, isolation and lack of connection. And there are health consequences, including alcoholism, strokes, and on and on.

And then there's AI, Maher says. There is now a "replica" AI GF you can have ... btw, that fake chick has 2 million boyfriends and counting.

It's interesting, Bill interviewed Tristan Harris, a tech ethicist on the show, who has talked about a phenomenon he calls "human downgrading."

David Ortiz aún lamenta la muerte de Tim Wakefield ... le dijo a TMZ Sports esta semana que su excompañero de Red Sox era un "gran tipo, hombre".

"Gran tipo", repitió.

Ortiz se sinceró con nosotros sobre Wakefield durante unos minutos mientras se encontraba en Los Ángeles ... unos días después de que el exlanzador estrella de Boston falleciera de cáncer cerebral.

Big Papi dijo que el lanzador de bolas de nudillos era franco "como mi familia, hombre" ... y se puede ver en el video, obviamente aún sigue adolorido por el fallecimiento.

Ortiz y Wakefield formaron una amistad durante su estancia en el Fenway Park - podrán recordar que compartieron un vestidor durante nueve temporadas. Y, los dos formaron un fuerte lazo ... Wakefield asistió a Cooperstown el año pasado para ser testigo del ingreso de Ortiz al Salón de la Fama.

Papi no es el único exjugador de los Red Sox que ha expresado su dolor por la muerte de Wakefield - varios de sus excompañeros de equipo también enviaron sus condolencias y oraciones en redes sociales.

Tim tenía 57 años.

David Ortiz is still mourning the death of Tim Wakefield ... telling TMZ Sports this week his former Red Sox teammate was a "great guy, man."

"Great guy," he repeated.

Ortiz opened up to us about Wakefield for a few moments while out in Los Angeles ... just days after the former Boston star pitcher died from brain cancer.

Big Papi said the knuckleballer was straight-up "like my family, man" ... and you can see in the clip, he's obviously still in pain over the passing.

Ortiz and Wakefield grew close during their time together at Fenway Park -- you'll recall, they shared a locker room with one another for nine seasons. And, the two formed such a strong bond ... Wakefield actually showed up to Cooperstown last year to watch Ortiz get inducted into the Hall of Fame.

Papi is hardly the only former Red Sox player to express heartbreak over Wakefield's death -- multiple former teammates sent thoughts and prayers on social media as well.

Tim was just 57 years old.

Here's a sight Jets fans are going to love ... Aaron Rodgers walking without crutches -- just three weeks after tearing his Achilles!!!

New York's "All-Access" team captured the images back on Oct. 1 ... when Rodgers was visiting his squad at MetLife Stadium as it prepared to take on the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday Night Football.

The superstar quarterback -- wearing jeans, a T-shirt and athletic shoes -- strolled into the locker room without the aid of crutches ... and when one team official urged him to be careful on his surgically repaired leg, he told the guy to "chill out."

"Let me just do my thing, OK!?" the four-time MVP said while moving with a limp. "Just show 'em I can walk."

Rodgers then posted up near his locker -- joking with others in the area -- before he showed once again he could saunter around without crutches.

It's all a great scene for Gang Green ... as Rodgers has said he's actually hoping to make his return to the gridiron this season.

Of course, it takes most about a year to get officially healthy from Achilles tears ... but the QB told Pat McAfee days after he first injured the leg that he was hoping his doubters would fuel him into a quicker recovery time.

"Give me the timetables," he said to McAfee. "Give me all the things that you think can, should, or will happen because all I need is that one little extra percent of inspiration. That's all I need."

David Njoku's face was badly burned in the fire pit accident, but things could've been way worse ... the Browns star says his eyes were open when the fireball burned his face, and he could've lost his eyesight.

“I give all the glory to God. When it happened my eyes were open, so I saw everything and I really should’ve been blinded,” Njoku told reporters, adding ... "Luckily I'm not, so I give all glory to God."

Of course, the 27-year-old, former first-round draft pick stamped his status as one of the toughest dudes around when he played the week 4 game against the Ravens just days after the incident, somehow wearing a helmet over the burned area.

“All the pain and suffering from training in the offseason is far worse than any of this,” Njoku said.

The Browns lost handily to Baltimore, 28-3, but David was a bright spot, catching 6 passes for 46 yards ... despite the burns.

Initially, Njoku didn't reveal the injury. In fact, he walked in and out of the locker room with a mask that covered his whole face.

Then, earlier this week, David shared a photo from shortly after the incident, in addition to a photo showing the burns healing, albeit slowly.

As for how he's feeling now ... how's this for good news?
