Cam Skattebo isn't able to have fun on the football field right now, but he sure is having a helluva time off it ... 'cause the New York Giants rookie did an energy drink shoey in honor of getting 10,000 subscribers on Twitch!!

The injured New York Giants running back celebrated the milestone with viewers on the streaming platform Wednesday night. The 23-year-old -- who started going live shortly after his gruesome ankle injury -- opted to do a chug out of his cleat with caffeine instead of beer ... but it's not like he needed any help staying awake.

He filled up his kick, drank the concoction in seven seconds, and let out a massive "WOOO" when it was all said and done.

Philadelphia Eagles great LeSean McCoy believes the defending champs are still the team to beat in the NFL ... and he explained why on the TMZ Sports Live Stream!!

Shady joined Babcock, Luca, and Lucas on the show this week to weigh in on the state of the Eagles ... and fresh off a win over the Detroit Lions in Week 11, he said they're not only the best in the NFC, but the whole NFL.

Losses to the Giants and Broncos don't have him in panic mode, either -- McCoy said bad outings are bound to happen from time to time ... but it doesn't mean anything necessarily needs fixing, and last season ending in "green confetti" is proof.

Gracie Hunt's got some strong opinions about the direction the NFL's heading in ... and the league's plans for its 2026 Super Bowl halftime show.

The daughter of Kansas City Chiefs owner Clark Hunt appeared on "The Will Cain Show" Tuesday and gave her stamp of approval to the upcoming "alternate" halftime show, which is being organized by Turning Point USA.

FYI ... Bad Bunny was selected as the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show's headliner in September, which provoked outrage in the conservative political world.

Gracie said she was "most definitely" looking forward to the conservative activist group's upcoming show ... and she singled out TPUSA CEO Erika Kirk for praise for "creating a halftime show for America."

Gracie described the youth of America as particularly "impressionable" and said they needed "someone to look up to."

Gracie said her grandfather Lamar Hunt -- who gave the Super Bowl its name -- believed the league shouldn't "rely on cheap appeal" to promote games or big events.

New York Giants rookie Cam Skattebo doesn't have to worry about facing any punishment after getting physical during his recent WWE appearance ... 'cause his head coach said he was well aware of his attendance -- it was a team-organized event!

Giants interim head coach Mike Kafka spoke with the media on Wednesday, where he was asked about Skattebo's now-viral cameo on the show.

"I thought it was a cool thing," Kafka said. "I know it was a staged little brawl there. It was great to see in the pregame, on the sideline. His juice, his energy, you can feel it. I could feel it through the TV and through my phone, I was watching the clips."

Some encouraging news from Kris Boyd ... the New York Jets cornerback says he's on the road to recovery after he was shot on Sunday -- and he's now starting to breathe on his own.

The 29-year-old shared a photo of himself in a hospital bed on his Instagram Story on Wednesday, days after he suffered a gunshot wound to the abdomen during a fight in Manhattan.

"God is real, God is powerful!" Boyd wrote.

Shedeur Sanders isn't sweating his recent home burglary ... telling reporters he's not fazed one bit by the invasion of privacy -- especially because his jewelry is safe!!

The Cleveland Browns quarterback addressed the media on Wednesday ... fresh off the announcement he'd be getting his first official NFL start against the Las Vegas Raiders due to Dillon Gabriel's injury.

The rookie -- who had a less-than-stellar outing in the second half of the Browns' loss to the Baltimore Ravens this past Sunday -- said he was in a good place mentally ... as he's "prepared for anything."

Plenty of fans were bothered by the "stripper outfit" National Anthem singer Karina Pasian rocked on Sunday, but the NFL sure didn't mind ... the Grammy nominee tells TMZ Sports the league approved her fit before "O Say" ever left her lips!

We spoke with the 34-year-old musician this week, fresh off her performance of "The Star-Spangled Banner" at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid, Spain, before the Commanders-Dolphins game, where she addressed the controversy.

Pasian was slammed by some viewers online, but none of it had anything to do with her vocals. Instead, it was the mini black dress and thigh-high garters that set people off, with critics knocking the look as "classless."

However, the league office didn't see it that way.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders had $200K in property stolen from his Ohio home during his NFL debut against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday ... officials tell TMZ Sports.

According to a new press release, three suspects wearing masks and gloves entered Shedeur's home around 6:46 PM. Surveillance cameras captured them making their way around several parts of the building.

Officials say the suspects then left the residence around 6:58 PM with "various property belonging to Mr. Sanders."

The incident is still under investigation ... but video of the alleged heist was shared via ex-NFL star Adam "Pacman" Jones.

As we previously reported, Sanders was busy getting his first snaps as an NFL pro ... taking over for fellow rookie and Browns starter Dillon Gabriel, who left the game with a concussion.

It wasn't the best outing for the former Colorado star ... throwing for 47 yards on four completed passes in the loss to the division rival.

After the game, Sanders admitted the performance was not up to his standard.

11:57 AM PT -- Skatt is defending his decision to get involved in 'Raw' while recovering from an injury ... saying, "Aye, honestly if you don’t like that I'm having a good time while dealing with a tough time, then just go ahead and unfollow and casually move on."

"I'm not able to play football and have the fun I've been having my whole life so I am doing things outside the box trying to find stuff to keep me happy. Enjoy the rest of y'all's week and just don’t talk about me if you ain't got nothing nice to say 🫡"

Cam Skattebo went to Madison Square Garden to watch "Monday Night Raw," but found himself in the middle of the action -- gruesomely busted ankle and all -- as the injured rookie running back mixed it up with The Judgment Day!

It all started when Dominik Mysterio began taunting comedian Andrew Schulz, who was seated next to Skatt, and some of his Giants teammates, including Abdul Carter.

Schulz and Mysterio were jawing back and forth when the WWE Superstar turned to Skatt and took a shot at him.

It was an emotional scene in the locker room after the Dallas Cowboys defeated the Las Vegas Raiders in their first game back since Marshawn Kneeland's death ... with Brian Schottenheimer saying the players "made him f***ing proud."

Dallas shared video of the head coach's speech following the 33-16 road win ... addressing how they fought through an unimaginable two weeks to handle business on "Monday Night Football."

"You guys made him f***ing proud, man! Unbelievable."

Rough Sunday for Shedeur Sanders -- not only was his NFL debut less than stellar, but police confirm to TMZ Sports his Ohio home was burglarized during the game.

Law enforcement said the break-in occurred while the NFL rookie quarterback took over for starter Dillon Gabriel, who suffered a concussion midway through the loss to the Ravens.

Police said no further details are being released at this time.

The Dallas Cowboys are a few hours away from playing their first game since Marshawn Kneeland's tragic death ... and the team made a special tribute to the late defensive end before kickoff in Las Vegas.

Dallas gave fans a glimpse into its locker room ahead of the "Monday Night Football" matchup with the Raiders ... showcasing Kneeland's jersey hanging in a locker with the caption, "94 forever."

It's one of the many ways the team is remembering Marshawn, who passed away earlier this month -- players will also wear helmet decals and T-shirts for the 2025 season.

Ja'Marr Chase just got punished for spitting on Jalen Ramsey during the Bengals vs. Steelers game on November 16 ... with the league handing him a one-game ban for "unsportsmanlike conduct."

The NFL announced the penalty on Monday ... one day after cameras showed the Cincinnati star spitting on the Pittsburgh cornerback in the fourth quarter of the contest. It will cost Chase his weekly check of $448,333, along with a game-active bonus of $58,823.

Ramsey -- who signed with the Steelers in June -- told reporters after the game that at first, it was just the usual trash talk, which he enjoys. But when Chase spat on him, all bets were off.

Great news from Cleveland Browns legend Bernie Kosar -- he says he's "feeling good" after undergoing liver transplant surgery!!

The 61-year-old shared the news on social media Monday afternoon ... telling his followers he's looking forward to taking on "the rest of this week and the rest of our lives."

It all comes on the heels of Kosar sharing Sunday night he was slated to go under the knife for the procedure ... celebrating the news with his nurses after some setbacks in the journey.

The shooting of N.Y. Jets defensive back Kris Boyd appears to have been caught on video ... with the footage showing a group of men fighting in the streets before two gunshots ring out, leaving the 29-year-old in critical condition.

The clip was posted to social media Monday morning, and it shows just how chaotic the scene was around 2 AM on Sunday as the violent incident unfolded in the heart of New York City.

Moments later, gunshots are heard, sending both combatants and bystanders scurrying away from the scene. It's believed at least one of those shots struck Boyd in the abdomen.

The New York City Police Department has released images of the suspect wanted in the shooting of New York Jets defensive back Kris Boyd Sunday morning ... which left him fighting for his life in a hospital.

Cops are asking the public for help in tracking down the man who fled the scene after he allegedly shot Boyd in the gut while he was leaving a restaurant in the heart of Manhattan.

The suspect was last seen wearing a black cap, black sweatshirt, black pants, multi-colored sneakers and a black book bag.

According to police, the shooting happened around 2 AM on West 38th Street, only blocks from Times Square.
