Terrell Suggs is eligible for the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2025 ... and T-Sizzle wholeheartedly believes he's a first-ballot HOF'er!

Suggs, a 7x Pro Bowler, joined "The Pacman Jones Show," where he chopped it up with his fellow former NFL star on Adam's new BetOnline show ... and Pac didn't waste any time.

"Don't you think you deserve to be a first-ballot Hall of Famer?" Pacman asked Suggs.

NY Giants star rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers is letting fans know he's okay after suffering a scary head injury in the fourth quarter of the team's Thursday night matchup against the Dallas Cowboys.

The moment occurred with 3:30 remaining in the contest and Big Blue down by five. Facing a fourth down ... Giants QB Daniel Jones tried to hit Nabers on the sideline to keep the drive alive.

However ... Nabers couldn't hold onto the pass -- with his face smacking the turf and seemingly knocking the 21-year-old out cold.

The Cowboys won the fight on the field and one of the bigger ones off of it as well on Thursday night ... as a Dallas supporter absolutely pummeled a Giants fan in a tiff at MetLife Stadium during the big game in New Jersey.

The chaos erupted early in the evening ... when a man in a Troy Aikman jersey got so upset with a Lawrence Taylor supporter -- he began beating the hell out of the guy.

Check out footage filmed by a bystander ... the Cowboys fan pulled the dude's Giants jersey over his head, and then unleashed a flurry of right hands.

Ryan Clark no longer plays for Mike Tomlin, but if he did ... he's making it clear he'd tell the Steelers head coach he needs to officially name Justin Fields the starting quarterback ASAP.

The former Pittsburgh defensive back said in an interview with TMZ Sports this week he believes a formal announcement would help his ex-team immensely going forward.

Of course, Tomlin has yet to do it ... as he still appears to be debating on whether or not the team should stick with Fields, or flip to Russell Wilson whenever the former Super Bowl champion is 100 percent healthy.

Eagles superfan Dunphy just revealed he sustained some rough injuries during his chest bump encounter with Jason Kelce earlier this month ... but, thankfully, he says he will not require surgery.

The diehard Philadelphia supporter -- who's gained fame over the years for his incredible array of Philly-themed stomach tattoos -- told No Shorts Media on Wednesday that test results showed he banged up his leg badly after he celebrated with Kelce at a pre-"Monday Night Football" celebration on Sept. 16.

He stated he was diagnosed with a "severe bone contusion" as well as several sprained ligaments ... but in a subsequent post on his Instagram page, he said all that would be required to heal is simply rest.

Bryce Young might be out of the job, but he's still got love for the guy who replaced him ... sharing a special moment with Andy Dalton after the Carolina Panthers' first win of the season.

The NFL Films cameras captured the pair of quarterbacks embracing in the locker room after Dalton's stellar Week 3 performance ... despite things not going his way, Young's keeping positive through it all.

The two exchanged a few words ... although Young's message was drowned out by all their teammates celebrating the big victory over the Las Vegas Raiders.

Brett Favre is speaking out after his shocking announcement this week ... with the NFL legend saying he greatly appreciates the "unbelievable show of support."

The Green Bay Packers great posted video to his Instagram about 48 hours after testifying at a welfare reform hearing on Capitol Hill ... where he announced he has Parkinson's.

Wow, what an overwhelming amount of support from you all," Favre captioned the post, adding, "Thank you and this is just the beginning of another mountain to climb."

Bengals legend Willie Anderson is racing to Joe Burrow's defense ... telling TMZ Sports anyone who's blaming Cincinnati's early season woes on the quarterback is flat-out wrong.

The former offensive lineman snapped on the JB haters during an interview with us on Tuesday -- some 24 hours after the Bengals fell to 0-3 with a "Monday Night Football" loss to the Commanders.

"That's ridiculous, bro," Anderson told us of the Burrow criticism. "Like, they're in these games because of him. It's just totally ridiculous."

Brett Favre tells TMZ Sports he was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease in early January ... after he began experiencing trouble using his right arm and hand.

The Hall of Fame quarterback made the revelations to us in late August while discussing various football topics. At the time, he requested we don't report it, but, after he went public with his diagnosis during a hearing on Capitol Hill on Tuesday -- he gave us permission to run it.

Favre explained he first had suspicions something was up when his dominant arm -- which he used to throw 508 touchdown passes in his 20-year NFL career -- would get "stuck."

Travis Kelce's making it crystal clear -- he is not dejected over his slow start to the 2024 season ... saying as long as the Chiefs are winning, he's a happy camper.

The three-time Super Bowl champ only has eight catches for 69 yards this year ... and after cameras caught him looking sad as hell on the sidelines of Kansas City's game against Atlanta on Sunday night -- many have wondered if it's all starting to wear on him.

But the future Hall of Famer downplayed his lack of production during a conversation with his brother, Jason Kelce, on Wednesday's episode of "New Heights" ... explaining he only cares about victories.

Tom Brady's autographed rookie card sold for a jaw-dropping six figures at Sotheby's x Fanatics Live Auction on Tuesday night ... and the lucky buyer was no other than Robert Kraft!

The 'Holy Grails' auction featured several near-priceless items, including Brady's 2000 Playoff rookie card, signed by TB12.

The card was graded mint condition -- receiving a 9.5 grade from Beckett Grading Services and a perfect 10 for the autograph -- and we're told only a few cards were printed back in the day due to Brady's draft position (199th pick in the 6th round).

Travis Kelce only has eight catches through three games this season -- and he's yet to top 100 total yards -- but one of his star teammates, George Karlaftis, is adamant the future Hall of Famer has not lost a step.

The Kansas City pass rusher spoke with TMZ Sports this week about his team's hot 3-0 start ... and while he told us he's much better equipped to talk about the defensive side of the ball -- he knows for a fact Kelce ain't washed.

Karlaftis said straight up the tight end "hasn't skipped a beat" -- and even though critics have suggested TK's highly publicized offseason with Taylor Swift has caused his slow start ... Kelce's teammate's seen no change in the 34-year-old's preparation process.

Travis Kelce's recent woes on the field are easily explainable ... at least according to ex-ESPN analyst Todd McShay, who says it's clear as day to him that the tight end is struggling because of all his newfound fame and his offseason jet-setting with Taylor Swift.

The NFL draft guru didn't mince a single word when talking about the matter on "The Ryen Russillo Podcast" on Monday ... saying he has no idea why pundits around the league seem to refuse to discuss the impact Kelce's high-profile offseason has had on his game.

"Are we not allowed to say that he's out of shape?" McShay said bluntly on the show. "That he's been partying all offseason? That he's been jet-setting around with the most famous person probably in the entire world? That he's drinking -- going to the U.S. Open and he's got cocktails?"

Boston Celtics star Derrick White clearly ain't happy that he was involved in a melee at the Colorado vs. Colorado State game earlier this month ... telling journalists Tuesday, "I shouldn't have been there."

White spoke briefly on the matter while out at his team's media day ... when a reporter questioned how he was doing some 10 days after he was whacked in the head during a scuffle at the big Sept. 14 rivalry game in Fort Collins.

White said he was feeling just fine -- revealing his advisory's spinning back fist didn't connect flush -- but he did appear to be embarrassed over it all.

Brett Favre just made a sad revelation on Capitol Hill ... the 54-year-old gunslinger announced he was recently diagnosed with Parkinson's.

The legendary Green Bay Packers quarterback made the announcement during a welfare reform hearing in D.C. Tuesday ... where Favre said he believed he was on the verge, with the company, Prevacus, of developing medication to help treat head injuries.

"Sadly, I also lost an investment in a company that I believed was developing a breakthrough concussion drug I thought would help others," Favre said during his opening statement.
