Get ready Broncos fans ... your star RB Ronnie Hillman is taking a stand ... revealing to TMZ Sports which Denver QB he'd want in the game when it's winning time.

Hillman was leaving The Nice Guy in L.A. when we asked the question burning up the Mile High city ... Peyton Manning or Brock Osweiler?

Check out the clip -- Ronnie skillfully sidesteps the question at first, but eventually tells us there is ONE Broncos QB he'd like to score the game winner! You might not immediately recognize the name he drops though. Think ... 3rd string.

Here's something you probably haven't heard since oh ... 2013 or so ... Robert Griffin III can be one of the NFL's greatest signal callers ever -- at least according to one ex Redskins star.

Albert Haynesworth tells TMZ Sports RG3 needs to change zip codes though, if he's going to get over the hump in his pro career because ... "It looks like they don't believe in him. I'm not there so I can't say why they don't."

He thinks Griffin can prove he's got Hall of Fame stuff if he gets on a different squad in 2016.

Haynesworth signed a $100 million deal with Washington back in '09, but got traded 2 years later ... and recently criticized the team's handling of "high profile players." But he also thinks RG3 needs to get out because the fans in DC won't cut him a break.

3 NFL teams are suddenly like waiters on the Sunset Strip ... trying to get a break in Hollywood -- the Chargers, Rams and Raiders all filed docs with the league to move to Los Angeles.

Floyd Mayweather says UFC champ Conor McGregor can be as brash and arrogant as he wants without catching any heat ... because of the color of his skin.

Mayweather did an interview with the guys over at FightHype.com last week, and when the subject of the flamboyant McGregor came up ... Mayweather went off.

"He talks a lot trash and people praise him for it, but when I did it, they say I'm cocky and arrogant. So biased."

He goes on to say ... "I ain't racist at all, but I'm telling you racism still exists."

Floyd then brings Ronda Rousey and Laila Ali into it ... questioning why Laila didn't get the endorsement and movie love Ronda does ... even though he feels Ali accomplished more.

Golden State Warriors star Andre Iguodala does not want his daughter to take up basketball for fear she'll become a lesbian ... so says his baby mama in a bitter court case.

Clayanna Warthen testified Monday in a child support hearing, Andre had issues with 6-year-old daughter London playing basketball at school because he was worried she might "turn into a lesbian."

TMZ Sports broke the story, Warthen wants Iguodala to pay $58k a month in child support ... up from 16k a month. She says her daughter is a genius with a 151 IQ, already reading Harry Potter books.

Warthen grouses her baby daddy isn't even paying for her full tuition and has shunned her, not even bothering to call on Christmas. Warthen says Iguodala saw London for a grand total of 9 hours in 2015. She says it's so bad she needs money to cover London's therapy.

Iguodala's lawyer fired back, saying Warthen is trying to take his client to the cleaners. The lawyer says Warthen wants money for a personal chef and $7k for floor seats at 76ers games.

Sorry, NY Jets fans ... you are NOT suffering the most after your team crapped the bed with that loss to the Bills -- that honor goes to the wife of your star cornerback, Antonio Cromartie.

Terricka Cason poured out her emotions about the Jets blowing their shot at the playoffs, and she is pissed ... like most Jets faithful. It's just that Mrs. Cro has a much different reason for her anger.

Just watch the clip ... it's painful and hysterical at the same time -- but as Terricka puts it, "My husband is going to be home every damn day. I’m going to have to get up every damn day, act like im doing something."

That's just a taste. Her rant is priceless.

Baseball great Kirk Gibson's son hasn't taken a swing in the majors, but he's still hitting home runs ... on the beach with his smoke show GF.

Cam Gibson -- who was drafted by his pop's old squad, the Detroit Tigers last summer -- and girlfriend Mackenzie Miller were in Maui this weekend ... and both flaunted their assets.

Unlike his dad's famous clutch World Series homer -- no one would say it's "impossible" these 2 hooked up. Hard bodies attract hard bodies ... aka #AbsGetCakes.

ATTENTION NBA PLAYERS:

Rapper Trinidad James -- the "All Gold Everything" guy -- has a slam dunk way you can avoid being shot in the strip club.

We got James out ... and asked him about the Knicks player who recently got blasted in the knee leaving a booty club out in NYC.

Question is ... is there anything high-profile athletes can do to shield themselves from random violence while they enjoy some random ass?

Former Ohio State star Maurice Clarett was arrested for operating a vehicle while impaired yesterday afternoon in Morrow County, Ohio.

A spokesman for the Ohio State Highway Patrol tells TMZ Sports the 32-year old former running back was charged with OVI and a turn signal violation. He was driving a 2011 black Infiniti SUV.

Police say Clarett was taken to the station, before being released to a sober driver.

FYI -- Clarett spent over 3 years in prison after copping a plea in a robbery and weapons case ... before being released in 2010. However, Clarett seemed to have turned his life around in recent years.

N.Y. Jets QB Ryan Fitzpatrick is still one of the best in the NFL ... is NOT what Jets fans are saying Monday, but his college coach still has his back.

Fitzpatrick threw 3 interceptions in Sunday's do-or-die game against the Bills, but Harvard coach Tim Murphy tells TMZ Sports he believes "Fitzy is one of the top 15 Quarterbacks on the planet" ... and yesterday's game did NOTHING to change his mind.

His evidence? "Teams Quarterbacked by Tom Brady, Aaron Rogers and Ryan Fitzpatrick did not have a great day yesterday."

Add Colin Farrell to the growing list of people who think this could finally be Leonardo Dicaprio's year to win an Oscar.

We got Colin arriving at LAX Sunday night and he had high praise for Leo's performance in "The Revenant" -- making it clear there's more bromance between the actors than rivalry.

As a bonus ... the Irish native also shed some light on why football (soccer) is so popular in his homeland and still struggling in the States. We also love his New Year's resolution!

Ever since Kanye West shouted out Swaggy P for wearing Yeezys ... the Lakers haven't lost a game, but Jordan Clarkson's not ready to call him a good luck charm just yet.

We got Clarkson leaving Boosty Bellows and proposed a theory -- that Kanye's new song is providing the mojo for the Lake show's 3 game winning streak. Ye drops his teammate's name in the track about Adidas crushing Nike:

“Now we hottest in the streets, it ain't no discussion
James Harden, Swaggy P runnin' up the budget”

Check out the clip, Jordan mimicked a few of the the lyrics, but NEVER really agreed with our theory. One possible reason ... JC's a Nike guy!

At least Swaggy responded to Kanye ... on IG.

Andre Iguodala has a little girl with a 151 IQ, and his baby mama says the multi-million dollar NBA player won't even fully pay for her education ... TMZ Sports has learned.

Singer Meghan Trainor obviously didn't get too tangled up with Charlie Puth after the AMAs ... because she seemed tight Saturday night with L.A. Clippers center DeAndre Jordan.

Meghan and DeAndre hung out at The Nice Guy in West Hollywood, and then got into the same car and drove off together.

The ex-ASU football players who allegedly broke into multiple apartments on campus have been charged with multiple felonies ... TMZ Sports has learned.

We broke the story ... Jayme Otomewo and Deonte Reynolds were busted earlier this month after a resident in an apartment building called police and said there were two strangers in her entryway.

When cops showed up, the two athletes confessed to going into a few rooms... but said they were doing it because they were looking to borrow a vacuum.

Cops called BS on the story ... because Otomewo was in a possession of a bent butter knife which they believed was used as a lock-picking tool.

Maricopa County Prosecutors charged both students -- who have since been kicked off the football team -- with 3 felonies: burglary in the 2nd degree, possession of burglary tools and theft of credit card.

Kobe Bryant has a squad to play for when his Lakers days are officially done .... 'cause Rick Fox just invited the Mamba to join Echo Fox ... his League of Legends team.

If you don't know what League of Legends is you probably have a girlfriend ... we kid ... it's the biggest competitive video gaming sensation in the world ... with competitions paying millions to winners.

Rick Fox is a brand new team owner in the North America League of Legends Championship series, and when we got him at LAX he extended a personal invitation to Kobe to join up.
