Super Bowl hero Malcolm Butler is riding high right now ... 'cause the dude just got himself a brand new FREE TRUCK ... and it's all thanks to Tom Brady.

Of course, Brady got a Chevy Colorado for being named MVP of the Super Bowl -- but said he wanted to give it to Butler ... who made the game-saving interception.

Well, Chevy heard Brady loud and clear ... and instead of letting Tom part ways with his prize, they decided to hook Butler up too ... and Tuesday in Massachusetts, Butler finally got his ride!!

"I am ecstatic that Chevrolet has chosen to reward me with a Colorado. It is just another unreal event in what has been an incredible week."

Still no word on what Brady plans to do with his truck.

Aaron Hernandez's fiancee has been granted immunity in exchange for her testimony in the former NFL star's murder trial ... but the extent of her protection is a big question mark.

The judge in the Odin Lloyd murder trial just announced an "endorsement for immunity to Shayanna Jenkins."

In the past, prosecutors have accused Shayanna of disposing of possible evidence at Hernandez's request ... after Odin's murder.

Now here's the mystery -- the judge has sealed the record ... so it's unclear how much protection Shayanna will receive in exchange for spilling her guts.

According to reports, prosecutors claim Shayanna has already been busted lying to the grand jury 29 times ... so, in theory, the "immunity" could merely protect her from perjury charges.

On the other hand, it's possible the immunity could sweep more broadly ... and protect her from more serious charges if she incriminates herself on the stand.

U.S. soccer legend Landon Donovan has finally popped the question to GF Hannah Bartell ... and SHE SAID YES!

Donovan made the announcement on Facebook ... writing, "I recently got engaged to the love of my life, Hannah. I have never been this happy and I'm excited for our future together!"

As we previously reported, Hannah is a hotel sales exec ... and the two have been dating for more than a year-and-a-half.

Donovan was married once before to a woman named Bianca .. but they divorced in 2011. We're told Landon and Bianca are still "friendly."

We spotted Landon and Hannah on a date back in June together -- looking super happy.

Congrats!

Here's a shocker -- Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition cover girl Hannah Davis tells TMZ Sports she's got a girl crush ... and the twist ... it ISN'T someone who's previously dated her BF Derek Jeter.

Davis was out in NYC today ... mobbed by fans and autograph hounds ... and revealed the one woman she's got a thing for (Hint: She's the Queen).

This is a GREAT moment caught on video ...

There we were, talking with WWE legend Shawn Michaels, when a MASSIVE dude nervously began to shuffle into the frame.

With a giant grin on his face, the man tapped Shawn on the shoulder ... and then, like a kid meeting his hero, he explained that he's a NY Giants player ... and Shawn was one of his idols growing up.

It's awesome -- the player is defensive tackle Jay Bromley, a 3rd round pick from Syracuse who just completed his rookie season.

Michaels is clearly impressed ... and the two proceeded to bro out ... even after Shawn broke the news he's a Cowboys fan.

Before Hannah Davis ... Minka Kelly ... Jessica Biel, Alba, Minnillo, Lima, etc. ... there was Vida Guerra -- and now she's on a mission to prove she's Derek Jeter's hottest ex.

Guerra (40) -- who shot to fame as an ass model -- tells TMZ Sports she respects Hannah Davis (24) and likes her S.I. Swimsuit Edition cover, but wanted to "respond" with a sexy shoot of her own.

Hence the photos you see before you.

"Hannah is Derek's type for sure, he's always liked tall girls ... but she was like seven when him and I dated," Guerra says.

"Curves are in -- and I have all of those."

Jermain Taylor's psychiatrist says the boxer has been a complete "gentleman" at his lockdown mental facility ever since he was arrested on gun charges ... and is begging the judge to let him out.

As we previously reported, an Arkansas judge ordered Taylor to undergo a complete mental and physical evaluation after several disturbing incidents -- including an altercation at a parade where Taylor allegedly pulled a gun on a family and another incident where he shot his cousin.

But today in court, Taylor's shrink told the judge that while Taylor has some signs of impulse control problems (possibly due to boxing) ... he ultimately recommended Taylor be released ... with a few caveats.

The shrink says Taylor would need to be monitored, needs random drug and booze testing, needs therapy and would be forbidden from possessing a gun.

Taylor's shrink also said Jermain "seems to really want to change his life" and noted that when he's sober and away from guns, he's "not a danger."

Fact: Our photog Adam got a hernia from working out like an idiot in the gym.

Fact: 50 Cent is kind of an expert when it comes to working out.

So, when Adam ran into 50 out in NYC Monday, he asked if 50 had any workout tips that could save him from another bout with the dreaded organ protrusion.

Snoop Dogg's Youth Football League continues to churn out studs -- with 20 former SYFL players committing to D1 colleges to play ball ... TMZ Sports has learned.

As we previously reported, Snoop started the L.A.-based league back in 2005 -- and it's exploded ever since ... with roughly 1,700 players signed up last season ... and 4 alums who made it to the NFL.

And now that National Signing Day came and went, the Commish of the SYFL tells us ... 20 former SYFL players have signed letters of intent to major college football programs, including Snoop's own son. Here's the list:

1. Donzell Roddie -- Boise State
2. Kyahva Tezino -- San Diego State
3. Jeremy Kelly -- San Jose State
4. Damon Wright -- Boise State
5. Kameron Powell -- Washington State

"I’m extremely proud to have coached and mentored these young men," SYFL Commish Haamid Wadood tells us.

"I speak on behalf of Snoop and my entire SYFL staff and all the coaches and volunteers. We just want to thank the parents for trusting in us and believing in us in building a foundation for these kids in giving them the opportunity for helping them achieve their goals on becoming a great player and teammates."

NBA Legend Nate "Tiny" Archibald tells TMZ Sports ... the practice of spanking your kids is going the way of the Betamax, Laser Discs and the Dodo Bird -- it's on the brink of extinction.

The Hall of Famer -- and certified teacher -- was out in NYC when we asked him if putting a shoe on a bad ass kid is still kosher in this post-Adrian Peterson debacle world.

Peep the vid -- Tiny says he's like the Chris Webber of child-rearing in that he's really fond of time-outs (you thought we forgot, didn't you Chris?).

David Geffen's stalker -- a former college football player -- must stay TWO football fields away from the Hollywood mogul for the next 10 years.

Jamie Kuntz pled no contest to misdemeanor stalking in L.A. on Monday ... and will undergo at least one year of psychological counseling -- twice a week -- and remain on probation for two years.

Most importantly to Geffen -- Kuntz must say at least 200 yards away from him for a decade.

TMZ broke the story ... Geffen got a temporary restraining order against Kuntz after he was arrested back in October for harassing and threatening Geffen.

Tatyana Ali says she was "touched" to see the famous "Daddy" episode of "Fresh Prince" struck such a chord with LeBron James ... and says she knew it was a special moment when they were filming the show.

Ali -- aka Ashley Banks -- was on "TMZ Hollywood Sports" on Reelz and said she was always proud of the show for dealing with tough social issues ... including absentee fathers.

Earlier in the day, LeBron had posted about the show ... saying he stumbled upon the episode on TV and it still makes him cry because it hits home.

FYI -- LeBron was raised by a single mom and never really knew his dad.

Big Sean is adamant ... he's NOT a size 8 when it comes to shoes -- and says there's a perfectly good explanation why he's been painted as a man with tiny feet.

FYI -- Kim Kardashian recently posted a pic showing the superstars who got first dibs on Kanye's new Yeezy shoes ... and the pic showed the shoe sizes on the corresponding boxes.

Jay Z and Diddy rock a size 9 ... and Big Sean got himself a size 8 ... underwhelming to say the least.

But Big Sean says you can't judge a man by the size of his Yeezys ... and he's got some hard evidence to back his claim.

Also, in case you were wondering why they call him Big Sean ... just check the Internet.

Memo to Kanye West from Magic Johnson: Quit whining at award shows -- it's NOT always about your friends taking home EVERY trophy!

Magic was out in NYC today when we asked him about Kanye dissing Beck's Grammy win for Best Album -- and he dished out some sound advice ... which we're guessing Yeezy will totally ignore.

Still, MJ added ... Kanye's basically a "good guy" who just flies off at the mouth sometimes.

The NBA legend also sounded off about the Lakers' celeb fans possibly jumping ship.

Check out the vid. Unlike Kanye ... nothing rattles the Magic man.

Hey Rory ... you seein' this?

Check out these pics of tennis superstar Caroline Wozniacki -- featured in her very own spread in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition.

It seems Wozniacki's really let loose since golfer Rory McIlroy broke off their engagement last year -- she's been on several girls-only trips with her BFF Serena Williams ... and started posting all sorts of hot bikini selfies.

And now she's upped her game in the new SI pics ... even showing off her ass.

Caroline isn't the only athlete in the mag -- UFC badass Ronda Rousey also got a spread.

Stay tuned for those, but in the meantime ...

With their team in peril, nothing brings a quarterback and a tight end together like a photo shoot with a hot Sports Illustrated bikini model.

SF 49ers QB Colin Kaepernick and Vernon Davis hooked up with Samantha Hoopes for a photo shoot for Levi's jeans ... and despite the crappy weather, Hoopes looked like she was ready for the beach.

As for Colin and Vernon, it looked like there was some friendly competition for Sam's attention -- and they even threw some friendly zingers at each other.

It doesn't appear Samantha has a BF ... but it seems she has a thing for football players ... and Colin happens to be single.
