A shocking lawsuit just filed ... a woman claims the father of her unborn baby -- an NFL star -- conspired to brutally beat her up.

Sharri Henry alleges last May, when she was four months pregnant, Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dennis Northcutt got his cousin to "maliciously assault, beat, strike and batter Plaintiff, her face and head with great force and violence ... causing severe and permanent disfigurement to her face."

We've confirmed Henry filed a report with the LAPD for the incident that allegedly went down outside Falcon Club in Hollywood on May 17.

In the lawsuit filed today in L.A. County Superior Court, Henry alleges battery and conspiracy to commit assault. She's seeking unspecified damages.

BTW, Northcutt just inked a $17 million contract with his team.

California Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez was four lattes past hyper today in Denver.

With the energy of the Roadrunner being chased by an ACME missile -- 48-year-old Sanchez shot down any insinuation that she would be gobblin' up the free gift bags from a celebrity filled SAG party tonight -- something Congress people can't do ... well, not if they want to stay in office.
