NFL

Kim Kardashian tuvo un ajetreado viaje a Nueva York. Además de sus otros compromisos, Kim se detuvo en el cumpleaños número 31 de Odell Beckham Jr., después de que TMZ confirmara que ambos comenzaron a "salir" gracias a algunos amigos en común.

Kim fue a su fiesta después de participar en los Premios CFDA 2023, donde la estrella de la televisión se robó las miradas con su ajustado vestido negro de encaje.

En el cumpleaños de Odell estuvo en compañía de algunos famosos de la lista A, como Lil Baby, Saquon Barkley, Saweetie, Stefon Diggs, James Harden, Ashley Graham, Justine Skye y más.

Nos habían dicho que Kim y Odell habían estado compartiendo en el mismo círculo por años, pero solo recientemente comenzaron las especulaciones de que la reina de SKIMS está teniendo un romance con el atleta de la NFL.

No está claro quiénes son esos amigos en común de Kim y Odell, pero esta no es la primera vez que aparece en las extravagancias personales de Odell. El pasado mes de noviembre (2022), estuvo en su cumpleaños 30 en el Mother Wolf en Los Ángeles y ambos asistieron a la fiesta de Michael Rubin por el 4 de julio a principios de este año.

Kim ha estado soltera desde que se separó de la ex estrella de 'SNL' Pete Davidson en agosto de 2022, después de un romance relámpago de 9 meses. Mientras que Odell y su novia desde hace mucho tiempo, Lauren Wood, se separaron a principios de este año.

3:20 PM PT -- Rodgers wasn't just walking tall before the game ... he was also back on the field slinging the football around -- which is another great sign for Jets fans.

The quarterback dropped back a few times and let some passes fly ... putting weight on his left leg as he followed through.

It's definitely trending in the right direction for Rodgers!!

Aaron Rodgers is recovering from his torn Achilles at a mind-blowing speed -- the New York Jets QB was spotted walking completely normal ahead of his team's Monday Night Football matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers ... just 56 days after going down with the injury.

AR8 was in great spirits as he made his way through the MetLife Stadium tunnels just minutes ago ... showing no signs of limping or needing to use a cart, as he did for previous games.

Of course, the four-time MVP ruptured his leg tendon just four plays into his first season with the Jets on September 11. Many assumed his season was over, but the 39-year-old vowed to get back on the field ASAP -- even revealing he was going to try to play again during the 2023-24 campaign.

It sounded crazy at the time, but Rodgers might really be onto something -- he also spent some time throwing the pigskin on the field before the Jets game last month.

It's not the first time we've seen Aaron walking without crutches -- he was able to move around slowly just three weeks after the ailment ... but now, it looks like he's walking perfectly.

Rodgers said last week he's crushing rehab and ahead of schedule ... but still has a "long way to go."

So far, so good!!

The 49ers had their bye week, but Christian McCaffrey was still making highlight plays -- surprising his fiancée, Olivia Culpo, with an over-the-top fireworks display during her bachelorette party in Cabo!!

31-year-old Culpo has been living it up in the popular resort city in Mexico to celebrate her engagement to the star NFL running back ... and the whole thing has been nothing short of a movie.

The squad -- including her sisters Sophia and Aurora Culpo -- took a private jet to their destination ... and their flight was decked-out with a half-naked male wait staff and cardboard cutouts of her future hubby.

Not only was Christian's face all over the place, the Pro Bowler also made his presence felt when he surprised Culpo with a fireworks display while the ladies sipped wine -- and Olivia's reaction was priceless.

"Still crying," Culpo said in the caption. "Surprise from Christian."

Outside of that, a blowup doll with McCaffrey's face also made an appearance at Culpo's yacht outing and party bus to the club.

McCaffrey -- who's currently one of the best running backs in the league -- started dating the former Miss Universe in 2019 ... and popped the question during their road trip vacation in April.

As we previously reported, the 27-year-old reached out to the jeweler for the massive engagement ring months before his proposal.

Travis Kelce and the Chiefs were playing across the pond, but Taylor Swift and her fellow Kansas City wives and girlfriends still showed support for their men on Sunday ... with a group of ladies making their way to the singer's NYC apartment to tune in to the game!!

Former Chiefs backup quarterback Shane Buechele's wife, Paige, and tight end Blake Bell's partner, Lyndsay, were all smiles after K.C. pulled off the 21-14 win over the Miami Dolphins in Germany ... exiting Taylor's TriBeCa pad following the matchup.

Patrick and Brittany Mahomes' good pal Miranda Hogue -- whose hubby, Summitt, played alongside the two-time Super Bowl champ at Texas Tech -- was also present for the watch party.

We're told the fun didn't stop after the final whistle ... as Swift, Brittany and the crew took the hang over to Casa Cipriani (one of Taylor's favorite spots), where they celebrated the victory for hours.

Of course, Brittany has been spending a ton of time with Swift recently -- as we previously reported, they all went out in the Big Apple together the night prior ... enlisting Selena Gomez, Sophie Turner, Gigi Hadid and Cara Delevingne for the occasion.

Brittany also spent some time with the WAGs on Saturday ... sharing some snaps from their quick East Coast trip on social media.

Swift has had no issue fitting in with Chiefs Kingdom ... and coincidentally, Kelce plays much better when she's at his games.

Fans are probably hoping she'll return soon, as Kelce only had three receptions for 14 yards in Sunday's win.

Things keep getting worse for the New York Giants ... franchise quarterback Daniel Jones -- who inked a massive contract extension this offseason -- tore his ACL during Sunday's blowout loss and is done for the year.

NYG head coach Brian Daboll revealed the MRI results on Monday, announcing the 26-year-old signal caller will undergo surgery to repair a torn ACL that he suffered against the Raiders in Las Vegas.

Daboll, in his second season as Giants HC, feared the diagnosis was serious after watching Jones' knee buckle in the first half.

"Tough. You never want your guys to go down," Daboll said in Sunday's post-game press conference.

"He's worked really hard to get back and it's unfortunate."

Jones was playing in his first game back since injuring his neck several weeks earlier, forcing him to miss a handful of games.

The devastating injury comes just months after DJ signed a 4-year contract worth $160 million this offseason ... after a career-best 2022 season.

Jones' 2023 campaign, before the ACL tear, had been very different. Daniel threw for just 909 yards and 2 touchdowns, while throwing 6 interceptions. In fairness, he was sacked 30 times.

The injury leaves the Giants with only one QB on the active roster ... backup Tyrod Taylor is on the IR with a rib injury he suffered in Week 8, leaving undrafted rookie Tommy DeVito as the only healthy QB.

DeVito, a New Jersey native, threw for 175 yards and a touchdown on Sunday. He also had two picks.

Jim Irsay channeled his inner Meek Mill after the Indianapolis Colts' win Sunday ... the billionaire busted out his best dance moves to one of the Philadelphia rapper's biggest hits -- and his players lost it!

The 64-year-old Colts CEO and owner was captured celebrating with his players and coaches in the Bank of America Stadium locker room after the Colts' 27-13 win over the Panthers in Charlotte.

Irsay -- who bought his team in 1997 -- rocked a Colts-themed suit, and did his best to dance to Meek's "Dreams and Nightmares" ... while holding head coach Shane Steichen's hand.

Irsay shared the awesome footage on X ... and captioned it, "Hold up, wait a minute, ya’ll thought we were finished. - Meek Mill (and also me)."

The squad loved it ... and so did Meek Mill, who caught the clip of Irsay vibing to his track, saying on X, "Can’t find a better song!"

The Colts fans also thought it was dope ... with one saying, "What the f*** did I just watch? But seriously I loved it."

It's obvious Irsay is proud of his players' performances in Sunday's game, including cornerback Kenny Moore II, whom he gave a shoutout for setting a franchise record with two pick-six interceptions in a single game.

The 4-5 Colts are currently third in the AFC South ... and will play the New England Patriots in Germany next weekend.

Damar Hamlin made his first return to Paycor Stadium since suffering cardiac arrest back in January ... and the Buffalo Bills safety was visibly emotional as he reflected on his journey in a postgame moment on the field.

25-year-old Hamlin -- a healthy scratch from the Bills' 24-18 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals -- made his way onto the field after Sunday's matchup ... crouching down near the spot he collapsed and needed resuscitating last season.

"Head Clear. Blessed & Highly Favored. Thank You," Hamlin said on social media alongside a short clip of his time on the grass.

It was a special night for Hamlin -- he also embraced several Bengals players before the game ... smiling from ear-to-ear as he dapped them up.

"Tonight was everything for me," Hamlin said on X. "Y'all don’t know the half of it. Trust me."

Hamlin also took his return as an opportunity to do something really special -- announcing scholarships named after the 10 medical professionals who brought him back to life ... and enjoying a dinner with the heroes over the weekend.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard's top priority when she gets out of prison next month is a tall order -- she wants to link up with Taylor Swift, and thinks she knows exactly where to do it.

The felon, who is nearing the end of her 10-year sentence for the second-degree murder of her mother, Dee Dee, is hoping her "Wildest Dreams" come true ... telling TMZ she and her husband Ryan have tickets for the Kansas City Chiefs game on Dec. 31.

Gypsy's scheduled to get out on Dec. 28, and she's counting on running into her idol at Arrowhead Stadium.

Realizing Tay Tay might not be there to watch BF Travis Kelce during that particular game, Gypsy has a backup plan, which is buying tickets for Taylor's October 2024 tour stop in New Orleans.

Clearly, she's determined to meet the singer, who Gypsy adoringly calls the "kick-ass chick" who's taught her the true meaning of girl power.

What's more, Tay's songs have served as massive inspo -- she says "Eyes Open" helped her push through the trauma from her mother's abuse ... which was detailed in the 2017 documentary, "Mommy Dead and Dearest."

Gypsy admits she mainly uses the commissary money her father sends to buy every TS album.

BTW, she's also a football fan, and would be thrilled to meet Travis too.

Of course, this might sound like a little pie in the sky -- Taylor sits in a luxury suite when she's at the stadium, and Travis is a little busy on game days.

¿La prioridad de Gypsy Rose Blanchard cuando sea puesta en libertad a principios de diciembre? Intentar ligarse a Taylor Swift, ¡por supuesto!

La delincuente se acerca al final de su condena de diez años después de declararse culpable en relación con el asesinato de su madre, Dee Dee, en 2015 y espera que sus "sueños más salvajes" se hagan realidad. Le comentó a TMZ que ella y su esposo Ryan han conseguido entradas para el juego de los Kansas City Chiefs el 31 de diciembre.

Piensa encontrarse con su ídola pocos días después de su salida de prisión el 28 de diciembre.

Consciente de que Tay Tay puede no aparecer para apoyar a su novio futbolista, Travis Kelce, durante el juego, Gypsy también está planeando comprar entradas para ver el show de Tay en Nueva Orleans en octubre de 2024.

Ella está claramente decidida a conocer a la estrella y le dice a TMZ que Taylor ha sido la que le ha mostrado el verdadero significado de girl power.

Es más, Las canciones de Tay han servido como una gran inspiración para ella, especialmente "Eyes Open", que la ayudó a avanzar a través de los abusos que sufrió y la motivó para manifestar su libertad de la cárcel.

Admite que utiliza el dinero enviado por su padre para comprar cada álbum de Taylor.

Pero, ¡espera! Conocer a Taylor no es el único reto post/prisión de Gypsy, porque también es fan de la NFL y quiere conocer a Travis.

No es tarea fácil, ya que Taylor se sienta en una suite de lujo cuando está en el estadio y Travis está un poco ocupado los días de partido.

Taylor Swift vive la vida y se divierte con amigas. ¡Amigas que en este mismo momento son noticia!

Taylor salió estuvo en Nueva York la noche del sábado con Selena Gomez, Sophie Turner, Gigi Hadid, Cara Delevingne y, sí ... Brittany Mahomes.

Taylor hizo su salida del restaurante Bond Street del brazo con Selena y con Brittany de la mano

Como sabemos, Selena fue noticia esta semana por publicar un mensaje en Instagram sobre Israel y Palestina que luego quitó al recibir hate en redes. Gigi y su familia han tenido sus propios problemas también, cuando su padre comparó a Israel con los nazis en un post de Instagram y luego lo quitó.

Sophie está en medio de un complicado divorcio por lo que también ha sido noticia. Y luego, está Brittany. Se ha convertido en la mejor amiga de Taylor desde que empezó a salir con el chico de su marido, la estrella de los Kansas City Chiefs Travis Kelce.

Taylor Swift lives in the moment, even hanging with friends who right at this very moment are in the news.

Taylor hit the town -- New York City, that is -- Saturday night with Selena Gomez, Sophie Turner, Gigi Hadid, Cara Delevingne and, yes ... Brittany Mahomes.

Taylor made her exit from Bond Street restaurant locking arms with Selena and had a grip on Brittany's hand.

As you know, Selena made news this week by posting a kind of hollow Instagram message about Israel and Palestine and then took it down, as if she was shocked she'd get criticism.

Gigi and her family have recently weighed in, with her dad comparing Israel to Nazis on an IG post and then taking it down.

Sophie's in the middle of a tricky divorce so she's made news as well. And then, there's Brittany. She's become an insta-best friend of Taylor's since she began dating her husband's go-to guy, Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce.

It's unclear if, though unlikely, Taylor will jet to Germany today to watch her BF play the Dolphins.

Josh McDaniels fuera... ¿Andre Rison adentro?

La ex estrella de la NFL dice que si las cosas fueran a su manera, ese sería absolutamente el caso, pues Rison le dijo a TMZ Sports que "le encantaría" ser el próximo entrenador en jefe de los Raiders.

"[Mark Davis] lo sabe", dijo el ex wideout Raiders. "Y creo que todo el mundo lo sabe también".

Puede sonar descabellado para algunos, pero Rison ha estado trabajando en silencio durante años para estar a cargo de un gran equipo de fútbol.

El hombre 55 años nos dice que hace más de una década comenzó su proceso de aprendizaje junto a Deion Sanders, y claramente cree que está listo para hacerse cargo de la cabeza en un programa de gran tiempo.

Rison dice que entrenar a su alma mater, Michigan State, sería ideal, pero sustituir a McDaniels en Las Vegas también sería un sueño para él.

"Sería una gran oportunidad", dijo Rison, "una gran oportunidad no solo para mostrarle al mundo, sino para mostrarme a mí mismo la dedicación que he dado en el juego como entrenador".

Por ahora, el entrenador Antonio Pierce está teniendo la primera oportunidad en el trabajo de Las Vegas, pero en la temporada baja se espera que Mark Davis lleve a cabo una amplia búsqueda para el reemplazo permanente de McDaniels.

Josh McDaniels out ... Andre Rison in?!?

The ex-NFL star says if he had things his way, that'd absolutely be the case in Las Vegas ... telling TMZ Sports he "would love to" be the next head coach of the Raiders.

"[Mark Davis] knows that," the former Raiders wideout said. "And, I think the whole world knows it as well."

It might sound farfetched to some ... but Rison has quietly been working to be the honcho of a major football team for years.

The 55-year-old tells us over a decade ago he began the process of learning the coaching ropes alongside Deion Sanders ... and now, he clearly believes he's ready to take over the headset at a bigtime program.

Rison says turning around his alma mater, Michigan State, would be ideal ... but replacing McDaniels in Vegas is also a dream of his.

"It would be a great opportunity," Rison said, "a great chance to not only show the world, but show myself the dedication I have given in the coaching game."

For now, linebackers coach Antonio Pierce is getting the first crack at the Vegas gig ... but in the offseason, Mark Davis is expected to conduct a wide-ranging search for McDaniels' permanent replacement.

Taylor Swift salió para tener una cita de viernes por la noche en Nueva York, pero no fue exactamente con su galán de la NFL Travis Kelce, estuvo, en cambio, con su amiga y músico Phoebe Bridgers.

Taylor llegó a la famosa taberna Minetta en Greenwich Village para comer algo con Bridgers, mientras Kelce se prepara para un partido de fútbol en Alemania.

Taylor se veía estilosa en su atuendo de otoño, luciendo un suéter de color canela, pantalones marrones y tacones gruesos. Phoebe fue toda de negro, lo que contrasta con su brillante pelo plateado, que la destaca de la multitud.

El propietario de Minetta Tavern, Keith McNally, dijo más tarde a los medios que Taylor y Phoebe comieron ostras al horno y foie Gras amouse bouche. McNally señaló que a Taylor "realmente le gustaba" el foie Gras.

Después de la cena, las chicas se fueron, pero no antes de que Swift posara con el chef. A Taylor realmente le debe haber encantado el foie gras.

Pero no tanto como su novio Travis, que este domingo jugará con los Kansas City Chiefs contra los Miami Dolphins en Alemania.

Travis fue interrogado acerca de su relación con Taylor durante una conferencia de prensa el viernes en Frankfurt antes del partido.

Cuando un reportero le preguntó por una actualización de su romance, Travis dijo: "El último estado es que fui a verla la semana pasada". El periodista también quiso saber si estaba enamorado de Taylor, a lo que el jugador respondió: "Voy a mantener mi relación personal como algo personal".

Taylor Swift went out for Friday date night in NYC, but it wasn't with her hunky NFL beau Travis Kelce ... linking up instead with fellow musician Phoebe Bridgers.

Taylor arrived at the famed Minetta Tavern in Greenwich Village to grab some grub with Bridgers last evening -- while Kelce was prepping for a football game in Germany.

Taylor looked stylish in her autumn attire, sporting a tan sweater, brown dress pants and chunky heels. Phoebe was wearing all black, which contrasted with her bright silver hair, making her stand out in the crowd.

Minetta Tavern owner Keith McNally later told the media ... Taylor and Phoebe noshed on baked oysters and foie Gras amouse bouche. McNally noted Taylor "really liked" the foie Gras.

After supper, Taylor and Phoebe left the restaurant, but not before Swift posed for photos with the chef. Taylor must have really loved that foie Gras!!

But, not as much as she digs her boyfriend Travis, who will be playing with the Kansas City Chiefs against the Miami Dolphins in Germany this Sunday.

Travis was grilled about his relationship with Taylor during a Friday press conference in Frankfurt ahead of the game.

When a reporter asked for an update on their romance, Travis said, "The latest status is, ‘I got to see her last week.'" The journalist also wanted to know if Travis was in love with Taylor, and the tight end replied, ‘I’m going to keep my personal relationship personal.'”

Ex-NFL star Devin Funchess is keeping his hoop dreams alive ... telling TMZ Sports he's still hoping to suit up for an NBA team -- and he's putting in the work nonstop to make it happen!!

29-year-old Funchess made headlines last year ... revealing after five seasons on the gridiron, he wanted to take his talents to the hardwood.

We caught up with the 6'4", 225-pound athlete about how the process is going this week ... and it's safe to say he's dead set on making it to the Association.

In fact, he's putting his skills to the test with California's Statham Academy squad in the Asia Basket Dasmariñas Tournament in the Philippines this weekend (DF dropped 10 points, grabbed 7 boards, and had 4 blocks in their first game).

"My end goal is the NBA, get a few seasons over there just like I did in the NFL. Just to be able to compete against the best players in the world, that'll be a blessing to me. I've done it in the football realm already. And it's nothing but dedication, repetition and just having fun."

Devin -- who first dunked a basketball when he was 10 -- has been working with NBA trainers to hone his craft ... and played against pros like Michael Beasley, Amar'e Stoudemire and John Wall.

Funchess explains his unique experience as a football veteran will help bring experience to a squad -- even though he'd technically be a rookie.

But he's not looking to come in the league and be LeBron James -- Funchess says he's just looking to make an impact and help teams win.

Of course, basketball was Devin's first love ... but after an issue with his coach in his junior season of high school ball, he switched his focus to football. He went on to play at Michigan before suiting up for the Carolina Panthers, Green Bay Packers and Indianapolis Colts.
