Keyshawn Johnson:

Keyshawn Johnson had his own real-life Maury Povich moment after a woman claimed he fathered her 4-month-old kid and ...

KEY ... YOU ARE NOT THE FATHER!!!

We broke the story, a 35-year-old woman filed court docs claiming Key knocked her up back in 2016 -- right around the time Johnson's wife filed for divorce. The woman wanted child support.

But Key's attorney Aja Mann tells TMZ Sports the results are in and the test proves Key's not the daddy.

"Mr. Johnson's only recourse was to submit to the orders of the Court, which included taking a paternity test to dispute these false accusations and the results of course came back negative."

Mann continues, "As he stated before, and states now, Mr. Johnson is not the biological father of this woman's 4 month old child."

"While unfortunate, Mr. Johnson is not the first celebrity to be subjected to false accusations, and he will certainly not be the last."

Eric Decker Playing For the Jets Made Me Miss Broncos

Breaking News
9/27/2017 8:07 AM PT

Eric Decker says playing for the sucky NY Jets made him long for the days when he was a Denver Bronco.

Cameras were rolling on the WR the day after he was cut by the NY Jets back in June -- and now his reaction is a part of his E! reality show, 'Eric & Jessie' (airs Wed. at 10 PM).

"It's weird, I was fired," Decker says ... while discussing how it sucked not making the playoffs during his 3-year run in NY.

Jessie asks where he wants to play next -- and Eric replies, "I do wanna go somewhere where I have a good chance to get back to the playoffs because I think I took for granted how (great it was)."

"We did it almost every year in Denver and ... I thought it was the norm."

Decker eventually signed with the Tennessee Titans -- a team that has a real shot at the playoffs.

EXCLUSIVE

ITS AN OAKLAND THING

Pissed off at Marshawn Lynch dancing on the Jets' grave?

DON'T BE, says legendary Oakland rapper Too Short -- cause Beast Mode was just gettin' down the only way he knows how.

"It's pretty normal where we're from," Short told us outside Catch in WeHo. "That's how we all dance."

Of course, Marshawn's from Oakland ... so when Vell and DJ Mustard's "Oakland" track hit during a timeout in the Raiders' blowout, he had to let it flow.

Some Jets players reportedly said Lynch's beast moves were demoralizing -- and Short definitely agrees.

Terry Crews I Wanted to Die on NFL Field Too ... But I've Wised Up

EXCLUSIVE
8/1/2017 10:26 AM PT

JUST KICK IT

Before Terry Crews took over Hollywood, he was an NFL linebacker who says he was ready to die on the field -- same mind-set as NY Jets rookie Jamal Adams.

But things have changed.

"I wanted to die on the field when I was playing ... but not anymore," Crews tells TMZ Sports.

Of course, Crews became a massive star AFTER his 5 year NFL career -- starring in huge movies ("The Expendables"), huge TV shows ("Brooklyn Nine-Nine") and big ad campaigns (Old Spice, anyone?)

The message? There's MUCH more to life than football -- and he's living proof.

Crews also shared his message with a mother and her football playing son outside of Craig's -- advising the kid to be a kicker because it's safer.

The kid's mom asked Terry if he would let his son play football with all of the CTE concerns -- you gotta hear Crews' answer.

As for Adams, the Jets safety told the media this week, "If I had a perfect place to die, I would die on the field."

Lucky Whitehead Claimed By NY Jets

Breaking News
7/26/2017 1:14 PM PT

Lucky Whitehead's unemployment didn't last very long -- the WR's been claimed by the NY Jets after the Cowboys fired him.

Whitehead was waived by Dallas on Monday after police said he was arrested for shoplifting back in June. Cops later admitted the man they popped was NOT Lucky, but rather an imposter.

Still, the Cowboys refused to back down and said they were done with Whitehead.

Lucky hit the waiver wire and according to Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport, the Jets pulled the trigger.

He'll get a fresh start in NYC ... with the team and the cops.

'Game Of Thrones' Star Uses NY Jets to Save His Role ... Allegedly

EXCLUSIVE
7/16/2017 12:15 AM PT

SILENT CHEERS

Here's "Game of Thrones" star Alfie Allen -- aka Theon Greyjoy -- rockin' a NY Jets hat in L.A. this week.

When pressed about his favorite player on the Jets, Allen didn't know a damn thing about the NFL team and instead jokingly named soccer legend Thierry Henry.

There's only one explanation -- George R.R. Martin, the mad genius behind 'GOT.'

Martin's a huuuuge NY Jets fan -- die-hard -- and often blogs about how his team drives him absolutely crazy.

So, here's the theory: Allen's going Green to kiss Martin's ass so he won't kill off his character ... because as EVERYONE knows -- no one is safe on that show.

Will the hat work? New season starts Sunday, so we'll find out soon enough ...

EXCLUSIVE
6/13/2017 9:59 AM PT

IT'S OUR YEAR

Forget what ya heard about the Jets being the NFL's worst team ... Gang Green star Buster Skrine says the squad is gonna shock the world in 2017.

TMZ Sports caught up with Buster in NYC, and asked the veteran CB for his message to the embattled Jets Nation ... “This our year right here!”

It’s a big statement considering the Jets finished dead last in the AFC East last year (5-11), and have unloaded some of their best players like Eric Decker in the off-season.

Skrine said he's sad to see Decker go -- but his release is “all business” ... and he clearly believes the team will win without him.

EXCLUSIVE

KEEPIN' IT 100

Brandon Marshall isn't blind -- he sees what's going on with the NY Jets and has a pretty simple question ... "Will they have enough people to line up?!"

The NY Giants WR was out in NYC Wednesday (being honored by the Mental Health Association of NY) where we asked him straight-up is he's glad he got out of Gang Green in the wake of the axing of Eric Decker, David Harris and others.

"I'm happy where I'm at now," Marshall told us. He also sent a message to Jets fans.

"I think eventually, they'll be alright. But I don't know if they're gonna have enough men to line up!"

We also talked to Marshall about fellow G-Men wide out Odell Beckham Jr. -- who's been getting heat for missing OTAs.

"I have spoken to him, and I guess my message to him is just keep being awesome. Keep rockin' out."

Marshall continued, "He's the biggest superstar our game has ever seen in the history of football."

"I'm happy to be his teammate lined up on the other side. Go double coverage him. Send all the coverage to him and I'll be backside, me and (Sterling Shepard) 1-on-1, and we'll be happy."

NFL Punishes Jets Tight End For Dumbest DUI Ever

Breaking News
3/15/2017 2:30 PM PT

THE DASHCAM FOOTAGE

The NY Jets tight end who stupidly talked cops INTO arresting him for DUI has been punished by the NFL ... and will be suspended for 2 games.

Austin Seferian-Jenkins was pulled over for a routine traffic stop back in September -- and was thiiiis close to being let go ... until he started running his drunken mouth.

During the arrest, Austin told cops he needed to take a "huge s**t" ... the cop begged him not to do it in the squad car.

ASJ eventually pled no contest to reckless driving and got probation and community service.

But the NFL found he violated the league's personal conduct policy -- and punished him as well.

Guess it woulda been worse had he actually crapped in the car.

I'M POSITIVE

At least TWO of Darrelle Revis' teammates are adamant the voice bragging about knocking out two people in Pittsburgh is NOT the NFL star.

Browner says he watched the video from the aftermath of the Revis incident and says, "I know for a fact that voice that I heard is not Darrelle Revis."

He also points out that Revis' current NY Jets teammate Brandon Marshall feels the same way.

For his part, Revis has denied K.O.'ing the two men and his lawyers say they look forward to proving his innocence in court.

HOW IT HAPPENED

Darrelle Revis' attorney is spelling out the NFL star's side of the violent incident in Pittsburgh -- claiming he was attacked by a drunk guy who was flexing his "beer muscles."

TMZ Sports spoke with Blaine Jones who says Revis did everything in his power to DIFFUSE a bizarre and aggressive situation before things turned violent on Sunday morning.

Jones says Revis suffered injuries in the melee and sought medical attention.

Of course, the other party involved in the incident has a different version -- claiming Revis got violent because he didn't want to be recorded on a cell phone. Multiple charges are pending.

JET SETTER

Kristin Cavallari says she's well aware of the "Jay Cutler-to-the-Jets" rumors ... and says if that move actually goes down, they've already got friends on the team!

With Jay Cutler's days in Chicago likely over, there are reportedly several teams interested in his QB services -- including the NY Jets.

So, when we saw KC at LAX Thursday, we had to ask how she felt about the possibility of moving to the Big Apple.

She did a good job of playing it cool ... but admitted there's already a "Jets connection" -- another famous couple they became friends with back in Nashville.

The guy who signed off on paying Ryan Fitzpatrick $12 MILLION to throw 17 interceptions will be named official U.S. Ambassador to the United Kingdom.

Officials say Donald Trump will announce NY Jets owner Woody Johnson will take the position.

Johnson was also the vice chairman of the Trump Victory Committee and hosted a huge fundraiser for him in the Hamptons.

The Senate will have to confirm Johnson before the move is official ... but it's more of a formality at this point.

Woody's reportedly handing over day-to-day operations to his brother.
