Former Philadelphia Eagles great Jeremiah Trotter Sr. says it’s an emotional time for his family after his son, Jeremiah Jr., made it to the Super Bowl … telling TMZ Sports he knows just how proud his late wife would be of their child.

TMZ Sports spoke with the former All-Pro linebacker as he prepares to watch 22-year-old Trotter Jr. attempt to win the Lombardi Trophy in his first season in the league — and he admitted the nerves he feels during his son’s games are much stronger than how he felt during his own career.

“When I played, I can control the game,” he said. “I can control certain aspects of the game or how I did. When you’re watching your kids play, it’s all on them. So you definitely get more nervous.”

Trotter Sr.’s wife, Tammi, passed away from cancer in early 2023 … and he said the impact she left on the entire family is as present as ever.

“Man, it’s emotional,” he added. “Just knowing how proud I know she would be of him and excited for the team. Her memory lives on through us, and through Jeremiah, especially Jeremiah because he looks just like her.”

“Out of all of my kids, he looks the most like her. So every time I look at him, I see her. I know she would be extremely proud of him, of all our kids, TreMil, Josiah, and we just try to be the best people and carry on her memory the best way we can.”

The Eagles Hall of Famer goes way back with the Chiefs coach, Andy Reid … but it’s safe to say he’s hoping it’s an off night for Big Red.

Lunar New Year is officially underway, meaning it’s time to celebrate the Year of the Snake … and we have a feeling our favorite stars already have big plans lined up.

Just take John Legend, for instance … the “All of Me” singer has made a point to celebrate the start of the Lunar New Year with his family in years past.

Back in 2023, John wore all red — known to be the luckiest color in Chinese culture — while attending an elementary school’s Lunar New Year celebration with his oldest children and wife, Chrissy Teigen, Luna and Miles, who wore traditional attire for the bash.

Cassey Ho, a fitness influencer and owner of PopFlex, also busted out the red for one Lunar New Year celebration. Though, it was her dog’s dragon costume that captured our attention … these two certainly make one paw-some pair.

Then there’s YouTuber Philip Wang and his wife, Helen Wang, who hit up Disneyland to ring in their Lunar New Year with Mickey and Minnie Mouse.

The social media stars beamed as they stood next to the beloved Disney characters … who wore traditional Korean attire for the special event at the Happiest Place on Earth.

A$AP Rocky‘s former friend who testified Tuesday and Wednesday against the rapper in his L.A. criminal trial has 2 outstanding warrants hanging over his head … TMZ has learned.

A$AP Relli is listed as the defendant in the warrants, for driving without a license and careless driving, in an August 2010 incident in the city of Weehawken, New Jersey, according to court records.

TMZ has confirmed both warrants are still active.
