John Harbaugh's unemployment lasted just 11 days -- the Super Bowl-winning head coach is taking over the New York Giants.

The 63-year-old reportedly agreed to a five-year deal ... which will undoubtedly make him one of the highest-paid coaches in the NFL.

Harbaugh released a statement on the move ... saying, "It's the New York Football Giants."

Justin Herbert and Jaxson Dart might as well break up with their girlfriends now ... because a famed astrologist says their relationships aren't written in the stars.

Richard James -- host of the "StarCast Weekly" show -- starts out by breaking down the Los Angeles Chargers star QB's relationship with his pop star better half, Madison Beer ... which Richard says is unlikely to work out because they're both Pisces.

Plus, James isn't sure the two are sexually compatible ... arguing that because Herbo's Mars is in Aries, he's more sexually spontaneous ... while Madison might be a bit freakier but ultimately looking for something more long-term.

Olivia Culpo and Christian McCaffrey are officially setting the bar for first-time parents -- and proud grandpa Ed McCaffrey can’t stop bragging about them.

Ed tells TMZ Sports the former Miss Universe and San Francisco 49ers’ All-Pro running back are crushing parenthood with their five-month-old baby girl, Colette Annalise McCaffrey.

"We’re watching them go through it for the first time, and they're incredible parents," Ed said. "Olivia is just an unbelievable mom. She loves Colette so much, and she's there for her all day, every day. Feeding her, holding her ... she's killing it."

Even Christian is in the mix, learning the ropes and handling daddy duties throughout the NFL season … and the 49ers hope to keep playing after Saturday's NFC Divisional Round matchup with the Seattle Seahawks.

The Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs are here ... and Pro Bowl quarterback Trent Green is breaking down each and every one of the games!

Green -- a Super Bowl champion -- joined Babcock to preview both Saturday and Sunday's matchups ... as the eight remaining teams battle for a chance to advance to the Conference Championship games.

The big weekend kicks off with the Bills travelling to Mile High for a tilt with the number one seed Broncos ... a game that Trent believes will come down to last year's Most Valuable Player.

"It's gonna be the quarterback play, and how they get it done. And how Denver's defense can try and slow down Josh Allen."

Saturday's second game will pit the 49ers against the Seahawks in Seattle.

It's a matchup that Green believes will come down to a few key points, including whether the Niners survive another big injury -- this time to star tight end George Kittle -- as well as the play of QB Sam Darnold and Seattle's feared defense.

Josh Allen might not admit it, but this is his year to win the Super Bowl ... so says ex-Bills receiver Stevie Johnson -- and it's all thanks to Patrick Mahomes sitting at home.

"Internally, he knows exactly what we know, like, there’s no Patrick Mahomes," Johnson said. "I don’t think he's worried about Joe Burrow or Lamar Jackson because he beat them a few times -- but it's just Mahomes in the playoffs. He's basically the reason why Josh was winless on the road."

The Bills and Chiefs have been familiar faces in the playoffs over the years ... but with Mahomes and Co. at home -- as well as Burrow's Bengals and Jackson's Ravens -- most folks are saying this is Allen's turn to take home the Lombardi Trophy.

The Bengals keeping Zac Taylor was the right move ... so says Adam "Pacman" Jones, who believes the team's struggles this past season aren't his fault -- it's all on the defense!!

TMZ Sports caught up with the former Bengals star in Los Angeles this week and asked whether the team made a mistake sticking with Taylor after a 6-11 season -- especially when there are some sexy names available this offseason.

"I don't think it's Zac Taylor's fault," Jones said. "The offense is scoring 30 points a game. Taylor call the offensive plays. We still been one of the top offenses."

If the Buffalo Bills need any help at receiver against the Denver Broncos this weekend, they can call a familiar face ... 'cause Stevie Johnson tells TMZ Sports he could rack up a "humble 40" yards -- and even score!!

The former wide receiver last suited up in 2015 ... but he explained his stance ahead of his old team's Divisional Round matchup with the top seed in the AFC.

"I would get at least four first downs before I get the hang of it," Johnson said. "Now if we're talking in the red zone, I can get three touchdowns -- fade, slant, that’s easy work. Just get up on 'em, create space and it’s money all day."

Sam Beal -- the former NY Giants CB who's been missing for the last seven months -- was locked up in jail for unpaid child support five months before his disappearance ... TMZ Sports has learned.

We're learning more about the months leading up to the disappearance of Beal, who was reported missing in early August 2025 ... and the new info includes the former NFLer spending some time behind bars.

According to his missing persons file, the Western Michigan alum was locked up from September 2024 to February 2025 ... after Michigan hit him with two charges for allegedly failing to make child support payments in 2024.

Darren Waller believes he was the last person to interact with Mike McDaniel before he was fired ... revealing he was "at the scene of the crime!"

The Miami Dolphins tight end sat down with Johnny Manziel on his "Glory Daze" podcast ... where he spoke about the bizarre experience he had during his exit meeting with McDaniel.

He said the two were reflecting on the season and the future ... when all of a sudden, Stephen Ross, who owns the team, busted the door open.

Tom Brady struggled at times during his final NFL season, but don't point the finger at Father Time ... 'cause the TB12 admits his divorce from Gisele Bündchen weighed heavily on his ability to play.

The seven-time Super Bowl champion opened up about the public split during his appearance on "The Herd" on Thursday, as Colin and Tom discussed whether this was Aaron Rodgers' final season.

Brady acknowledged his own 2022 campaign -- his final season and first-ever losing year -- was difficult ... especially after Bündchen's divorce filing became public.

"My last season was tough," Brady said.

Adam "Pacman" Jones has revealed the biggest condition for Deion Sanders to make the jump to the NFL -- no coaching against his kid, or it's a hard pass.

TMZ Sports caught up with the former NFL star outside Paramount on Wednesday ... and asked whether Coach Prime might throw his hat into the ongoing coaching carousel.

It wouldn’t surprise Pacman to see Deion back in the NFL ... but "it would have to be Cleveland" with his son, Shedeur, despite nine NFL head coach jobs opening this cycle.

Giants fans aren't the only ones excited about potentially landing John Harbaugh -- so is Nate Burleson, who tells TMZ Sports the move could transform both the New York franchise and Jaxson Dart.

The news about Harbaugh possibly joining Big Blue began on Wednesday ... after the former Ravens head coach had an in-person interview with the organization. Hours later, it was reported the two sides were close to an agreement.

Like Giants supporters, Burleson believes it would be a perfect match -- especially with a young, dynamic, dual-threat quarterback like Dart ... the kind of QB Harbaugh knows well.

Nostalgia for 2016 is all over social media these days … but reminiscing on a decade ago might be awkward timing for Hailee Steinfeld!

An old photo of the “Sinners” star is making the rounds this week, and Bills Mafia is definitely doing a double-take at the dug-up tweet.

The throwback pic shows Hailee rocking a Broncos Starter jacket and hitting a full dab on the day Denver won Super Bowl 50 -- with the caption "HELL YEAH BRONCOS!!!!"

Fast-forward to now, and she’s married to superstar Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen, whose squad just so happens to be facing the Broncos in the NFL playoffs this weekend.

Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt is lucky to be alive -- the NFL-er told police he was a passenger in a terrifying crash in November, when a vehicle flipped in the street after colliding with a parked car.

The moment was caught on surveillance footage, which showed a black Jeep -- registered to Taylor-Britt -- blowing through a red light around 3 AM on November 15.

The car rolled over and onto its roof ... and out of frame.

Willie Parker admits he was shocked at Mike Tomlin's decision to step away from the Pittsburgh Steelers after 19 seasons ... but tells TMZ Sports he has no doubt the Super Bowl-winning head coach will once again roam an NFL sideline!

We spoke to the former Steelers running back star shortly after Tomlin made the tough decision to resign ... bringing an end to his reign as the NFL's longest-tenured coach after nearly two decades without a losing season.

"Man, it was surprising," Parker told us on Tuesday.

The Mike Tomlin era in Pittsburgh has come to an end -- the Super Bowl-winning head coach has informed the Steelers he is stepping down as head coach.

Team President Art Rooney II confirmed the news minutes ago, saying Tomlin shared his decision in a meeting earlier on Tuesday.

"Obviously, I am extremely grateful to Mike for all the hard work, dedication, and success we have shared over the last 19 years," Rooney said. "It is hard for me to put into words the level of respect and appreciation I have for coach Tomlin."
