Jeremiah Kelly — a freshman offensive lineman for the University of Cincinnati football team — died unexpectedly Tuesday morning at his Ohio home.

The Bearcats shared the shocking news in a press release, with head coach Scott Satterfield saying … “The Bearcats football family is heartbroken by the sudden loss of this outstanding young man.”

Coach continued … “In the short time Jeremiah has spent with our team, he has made a real impact, both on the field and in our locker room. My prayers are with the Kelly family and those who had the pleasure of knowing Jeremiah.”

No cause of death was given for the 18-year-old, but an Avon High School Football parent said in a GoFundMe set up for Jeremiah’s family that he passed away in his sleep.

So far, it has raised nearly $20,000 of its $30,000 goal.

Dylan Meyer is now happily married to Kristen Stewart … and she’s showing off her gold wedding band for the world to see.

TMZ obtained a photo of Dylan dressed casually in a T-shirt and sweatpants outside her Los Angeles home — flashing her shiny new ring — after she tied the knot with the famous actress in a private ceremony Sunday.

The photog snapped the pic Monday and it captures Dylan greeting an Uber Eats delivery driver, who handed her food from Joe & the Juice cafe.

But we did see a lot of the newlyweds over the weekend. As we first reported, Kristen and Dylan got hitched Sunday afternoon at Mexican restaurant Casita Del Campo.

We’re told it was an intimate affair, with Ashley Benson and her husband Brandon Davis among the notable guests at the wedding. TMZ obtained exclusive photos of the lovebirds saying their vows before kissing and hugging.

Shannon Sharpe is vowing to sue his rape accuser for defamation … in wake of the allegations she made against him in a bombshell lawsuit she filed on Sunday.

The ESPN personality addressed Jane Doe‘s explosive claims in a video that he posted to his Instagram page on Tuesday morning … just minutes after the woman’s attorney, Tony Buzbee, released an audio file to TMZ Sports that he says shows Sharpe threatening his client with “disturbing, aggressive, and dangerous” language.

Sharpe opened up his statement by claiming Doe’s case “is a shakedown.” He then accused Buzbee of orchestrating the attempted cash grab — explaining he believes “Tony Buzbee targets Black men.”
