The release shot Tyler to the top of the Global Spotify Artist chart for 3 consecutive days ... knocking Taylor of that perch, and likely sparking the ire of Swifties everywhere.

Comedian Peng Dang is weighing in on Tony Hinchcliffe's offensive Puerto Rico "garbage" joke, telling TMZ he's hardly shocked -- especially given their rocky past.

Peng tells TMZ he sees a clear pattern with Tony, drawing parallels to his own experience 3 years ago when Hinchcliffe launched into a racist rant against him -- telling us this offensive style is just Tony's schtick -- and that he'll keep it up, and will brush off the backlash as "cancel culture."

You gotta check out the whole clip ... Peng goes deep on the similarities to his own experience, and you can tell it still gets under his skin. The rant ended up costing Hinchcliffe his representation at the time.

Bears defensive back Tyrique Stevenson was in a celebratory mood after his team went up 15-12 with less than half a minute left in the contest ... but it was a bit premature, as the Commanders had one final shot to steal the victory.

Instead of concentrating on his coverage, Stevenson turned his back on the action ... and chose to send a message to the home crowd -- all while Daniels was scrambling for his life.

Trevon Diggs didn't show much fight on the field Sunday night, but off of it, he was certainly in the scrapping mood ... getting so pissed with a reporter's critique of him, he actually tried to embarrass the journalist in front of all his colleagues.

Video apparently taken inside a Bronx bar from right after the Dodgers slugger partially dislocated his shoulder during the team's 4-2 win over their rival to take a two-game lead in the seven-game set shows the gleeful atmosphere.
