Fresh off Bad Bunny's anti-ICE statements at the Grammy Awards, Roger Goodell doesn't anticipate an encore during the Super Bowl Halftime Show ... telling reporters he feels the music superstar will use the stage to unite, not divide, the crowd.

The NFL commish was asked on Monday about Benito's political acceptance speech at Sunday's event ... and whether he was anticipating a similar message being conveyed when he takes the field at Levi's Stadium on Feb. 8.

Goodell said Mr. Bunny was right for the gig for two reasons -- BB is "one of the greatest artists in the world" -- but he also "understood the platform he was on, and this platform is used to unite people and be able to bring people together with their creativity, with their talents and to be able to use this moment to do that."

Jarrell Miller went viral after an uppercut knocked the toupee off his head in the middle of his boxing match at Madison Square Garden, but the incident might not be the worst thing ... 'cause he tells TMZ Sports his DMs have been flooded with companies hoping to work with him!

Babcock chopped it up with Miller after his win over Kingsley Ibeh Saturday night at the World's Most Famous Arena and -- of course -- asked about what happened with his hair.

"I felt a cold breeze in my scalp, and I said I know I ain't got no AC up there," Miller said.

Brittany Mahomes is usually spending this week gearing up to watch her hubby, Patrick, and the Kansas City Chiefs play in the Super Bowl ... but since the team fell short of the playoffs, she's spending her time in the cold building an igloo!!

Mahomes shared her DIY project on Instagram ... and despite having some snow on the ground, it wasn't enough to support their building alone.

Inspired by an idea on the internet, she bought a ton of aluminum trays, filled them with water and dye, and left them outside for a few days to freeze.

3:37 PM PT -- NFL commissioner Roger Goodell was just asked about Tisch's emails ... and he stopped short of calling it a full-blown investigation into the matter.

The NFL is breaking its silence on the emails between New York Giants co-owner Steve Tisch and Jeffrey Epstein ... stating its office will "look into the matter to understand the facts."

The development comes after Tisch confirmed he had "a brief association" with Epstein ... saying the two exchanged messages about "adult women, and in addition, we discussed movies, philanthropy and investments."

"I did not take him up on any of his invitations and never went to his island," he said. "As we all know now, he was a terrible person and someone I deeply regret associating with."

Reverend Jordan Wells has been an NFL fan his whole life ... but he told us he's boycotting the Super Bowl this year -- and not because his beloved Kansas City Chiefs didn't make it ... it's because Bad Bunny's headlining the halftime show.

Wells stopped by "TMZ Live" to explain his boycott of Super Bowl LX has nothing to do with Bad Bunny singing in Spanish ... it has everything to do with the Puerto Rican superstar supposedly making himself an activist, who Wells says, is demonizing one half of the country.

Wells says ... "I expect this Super Bowl to be the most political Super Bowl we have ever seen, because of who they picked and because of how the NFL has handled that."

Turning Point USA just revealed its lineup for its own Super Bowl halftime show ... and to no one's surprise Kid Rock is on the list.

Kid Rock is a huge President Trump supporter, and he will be joined on stage by Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice, and Gabby Barrett.

TPUSA is calling the event "The All American Halftime Show," and it's airing on five networks, plus TPUSA's social media channels on YouTube, X, and Rumble.

The pair reportedly flew in together by private jet from the UK.

Terry Rozier might be in the middle of a huge gambling scandal, but he's still getting paid -- an arbitrator ruled in his favor in a fight with the NBA ... allowing him to collect his $26.6 million salary.

The ruling was announced on Monday ... months after Rozier was arrested as part of a federal investigation.

Despite the ongoing case, Rozier is set to make $26.6 million this season -- $25M of that guaranteed ... and his lawyer, Jim Trusty, told Front Office Sports that his client won based on contract law and the Collective Bargaining Agreement between the NBA and players, adding that "the bigger principle at issue is the presumption of innocence."

Super Bowl week is off to a shaky start -- literally -- after more than a dozen earthquakes have hit the Bay Area ... as the NFL world descends on the area for Super Bowl LX.

According to FOX Weather, the quakes have been centered in San Ramon, which is about 40 minutes away from Levi's Stadium -- the home of Sunday's big game.

The United States Geological Survey earthquake map shows 20 quakes in the area, with the most powerful clocking in at 4.3, and two registering at 3.8.

Chrisean's boxing career is officially underway -- the rapper/reality TV star is set to make her debut on April 25 against wrestler/Slap fighter prospect Zenith Zion!

Damon Feldman of XRumble Fighting Championships told TMZ Sports that the three-round bout will take place at the Harrah's Philadelphia Casino in Chester, Pennsylvania, and will be a Pay-Per-View event on Triller TV.

Feldman said Zion -- who held the AWA Women's Television Championship -- was selected out of 5,824 women who wanted to get in the ring with Rock.

Russell Wilson wasted no time shutting down talk of Jeffrey Epstein after the QB's name appeared in the newly released files, insisting he never met or had any contact with the guy!

The soon-to-be free agent quarterback's name popped up in DOJ's massive Epstein document dump after Jeffrey's pilot, Larry Visosk, in a January 2019 email, said the Super Bowl-winning signal caller was interested in buying JE's Gulfstream G-IV private jet.

After the government dropped the files on Friday, the email containing Russ' name spread fast on social media, and the backlash began immediately ... so he moved to shut it down.

A Japanese volleyball player is going viral for his epic reaction to accidentally hitting someone with a serve ... and it'll have you demanding better the next time someone has to say sorry to you.

The moment of remorse unfolded during an All-Star event in Kobe, Japan. The man at the center of it, Yuji Nishida, was taking part in a serving challenge when his hit went awry -- striking a worker in the back.

Nishida immediately sprinted toward the woman and slid on his stomach underneath the net and profusely apologized for the unintentional contact.

Devin Haney ended up with his hand raised via a ruling in a Los Angeles court earlier this week ... as TMZ Sports has learned the judge denied a motion filed by his ex-fiancée, Leena Sayed, seeking permission to post their one-year-old child on social media without his approval.

According to court documents we've obtained, Judge Hank Goldberg sided with Haney's desire to keep the couple's parenting agreement intact ... saying, "There is no argument as to why a one-year-old child would benefit from being exposed to the public and a subject of social media attention."

"It is entirely understandable that celebrity parents may desire to shield their children from the public and from social media. Public culture is replete with stories of children of celebrity parents who have been harmed by the public spotlight."

It could be LeBron James' last time playing at Madison Square Garden, but Druski stole some of the spotlight Sunday night ... pulling up to the World's Most Famous Arena with adult film star, Sky Bri!

The million-dollar, currently unanswered, question ... are they dating, or just friends?!
