2:57PM PT -- The 49ers just announced they've cut Tramaine Brock.

49ers CB Tramaine Brock was arrested for felony domestic violence near San Francisco ... after he allegedly got physical with a girl he was dating.

Santa Clara police say they responded to a report of domestic violence on Thursday night at 9:35 PM. When they arrived, cops say they made contact with a woman who had visible injuries.

Officials tell TMZ Sports that Brock was NOT on the scene when they arrived ... but later went to the station to talk to cops. He was then booked for felony domestic violence.

Cops say the woman's injuries were minor, and she did not require medical attention.

Brock, 28 -- one of the best players on the 49ers defense -- was taken to Santa Clara County Jail. A judge has not yet set bail.

They said it would never last ... and they were right. Olivia Munn and Aaron Rodgers have broken up just months after rumors swirled that they were engaged.

The Green Bay Packers QB and the 'X-Men' actress began dating in 2014 but have finally decided to call it quits, this according to People.

There was a huge rift between Aaron and his family over the years -- and many people believed Olivia played a part ... though Aaron never publicly addressed it.

No word on why the two split -- but Olivia has been hanging out with her close friend, Ayesha Curry, over the past few days without Rodgers. Our guess is she's leaning on Ayesha for emotional support.

Jamal Anderson says he's in a much better place mentally and emotionally -- following a bizarre incident in which cops say he exposed himself in a gas station convenience store.

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Trevone Boykin was arrested in Texas AGAIN Thursday -- and it's all connected to that crazy night when a car he was riding in crashed into a bar.

As we previously reported, Boykin was still on probation on March 27 when he was arrested for public intoxication and drug possession following the car crash.

Background -- Boykin was sentenced to 1 year probation in June 2016 for fighting police officers at a San Antonio bar days before the Alamo Bowl.

Now, we've learned a warrant was issued for his arrest earlier this week because prosecutors believe his March arrest constitutes a violation of his probation.

Boykin was taken into custody at 1:35 PM on Thursday and released a few hours later on $2,500 bond. He'll be arraigned on May 3.

Rob Gronkowski is no Eminem ... but he tried.

The NFL star ht up DJ Whoo Kid's "Whoolywood Shuffle" show with his WWE superstar pal, Mojo Rawley -- and decided to bust out a few freestyle bars over Biggie Smalls' "Hypnoitze" beat.

He rapped about Super Bowl rings. He rapped about chicks. He rapped about doorbells.

At the end, Gronk bragged that he wasn't bad for a "big ass white boy."

You be the judge.

How do NFL players feel about Marshawn Lynch possibly coming back to the league? If Jaguars star Marcedes Lewis' reaction is any indication they are freakin' STOKED!

We got Lewis out at Warwick in L.A. and asked his thoughts on Marshawn's rumored return -- it's been reported he met with the Raiders recently -- and he made it clear ... he's all for it.

In fact, Lewis says he thinks Lynch could play for just about any NFL team he wants, and thinks it's actually a better league with Beast Mode pushing that rock down the field.

Tom Brady had David Blaine over for dinner Wednesday and it was a healthy, carb-free meal -- GLASS!!

Greg Hardy ain't giving up on his football dreams after all -- the ex-NFL star reported to camp Wednesday for The Spring League ... a developmental league kicking off in April.

TMZ Sports has photos showing the ex-Carolina Panthers defensive end filling out his official paperwork and registering on the computer at league offices in West Virginia.

We're told Hardy -- along with other players -- received a training schedule, sleeping arrangements and practice/game dates.

Other players committed to the league include Kellen Winslow and Brandon Browner. Both are also checked in and hoping to use the league as a springboard to launch them back into the NFL.

Opening day is April 15. Stay tuned ...

Marshawn Lynch already has some strong allies on the Oakland Raiders -- including the team's best lineman, Donald Penn, who tells TMZ Sports he's all about bringing Beast Mode to the squad.

"I hope the Raiders do get Marshawn," Penn told us Tuesday night in L.A. ... "That's my dog!"

The guy who led the FBI to the stolen Tom Brady Super Bowl jerseys says he TRIED to give the tip to the NFL security team ... BUT THEY BLEW HIM OFF!!!!

We spoke with Dylan Wagner -- the 19-year-old sports memorabilia collector who was innocently doing business with Mauricio Ortega when he realized the guy was in possession of stolen property.

Wagner tells TMZ Sports ... when he got the photo proof Ortega had the goods, he went to the NFL, the Patriots and the Houston P.D. ... but no one took him seriously.

Eventually, Wagner says he went to his friend -- who happens to be a special agent at the ATF -- and that guy helped escalate the situation to the FBI.

By the way, Wagner also says he tried to buy the Brady jersey from Ortega -- but Mauricio got cold feet and insisted it was a "great fake."

Wagner says he hasn't heard from the NFL or the Patriots yet -- but would love to meet Tom Brady one day ... who happens to be his hero.

The man who led authorities to the stolen Tom Brady Super Bowl jerseys is a 19-year-old Pats fan ... who reportedly tipped off the feds during a bizarre business deal with Mauricio Ortega.

Michael Irvin says he did NOT have any sort of sexual relations with the person accusing him of sexual assault ... telling TMZ Sports he treated the woman like family in the years before the incident.

Irvin appeared on the "TMZ Sports" TV show (airs tonight on FS1) and said he's NEVER had any sort of sexual relationship with his accuser ... including on the night in question.

"She was like my niece ... a good friend," Irvin said. "I was hurt to hear about [the allegation]."

As we previously reported, Irvin is being investigated for allegedly sexually assaulting a 27-year-old woman in his Florida hotel room on March 21. Irvin says he believes video evidence will prove his innocence.

Ray Rice is all about working with student athletes -- but he's not looking for a coaching gig ... he's focused on mentoring.

We know Ray recently met with a high school football coach in NJ -- who happens to be Rice's former college teammate -- but it was not about a job on the coaching staff.

We're told the two were discussing Ray speaking to the team about the importance of making the right decisions ... just as Ray has done at major colleges around the country including Florida State, Ohio State, USC and more.

One of Ray's close friends says the running back has received positive feedback from students and school officials and feels strongly about continuing to work with young people.

As far as coaching somewhere down the line, anything's possible ... but for now, Ray feels he's more effective in classrooms than on the sidelines.

Tony Romo should take some notes -- 'cause Ernie Johnson is dishing out some tips to the QB on how to make it as a sports broadcaster ... and it's pretty good advice.

The "Inside the NBA" star has been working in the TV biz since the 1970's -- and has worked everything from the NBA to college basketball to MLB playoff games and even the Olympics!

Here's Chad Johnson trying to cover NFL superstar Antonio Brown -- and it's not a total disaster.

Look, Brown is widely considered the best WR in pro football and runs insane routes -- and Chad is 39 and hasn't played in the league since 2012. It's not exactly a fair fight.

When they locked up in Miami on Tuesday, Brown was dominant -- but Ocho held his own and it makes you wonder how good Chad coulda been if he focused on playing DB.

Ocho squared off with ATL Falcons WR Mohamed Sanu last week and now he's got his sights set on Odell Beckham Jr.

Stay tuned ...

It cost A LOT of money for Tom Brady to look so dressed down at Fenway Park on Monday -- his casual stadium outfit cost almost $2,000!!!!

Tom was mostly decked out in Tom Ford -- with a merino crewneck sweater ($790), some fit black jeans ($680) and a $380 pair of sunglasses.

Throw in the Under Armour shoes ($85) and you're right under $2k.

And that doesn't include the $10,000 TAG Heuer watch on his wrist -- or the $500,000 Super Bowl jersey in his hand!

You fancy, huh?!
