Hey, there’s no denying that there are some handsome guys in the NFL. Now, a new study has revealed that the Detroit Lions actually have the most handsome player in the NFL. How wild is that?

The new study is from online casino site Gamblino. In it, they “analyzed several measures of attractiveness in order to find their sexiest player of the 2023-2024 NFL season,” according to a release. They used Ranker’s list of The Hottest NFL Players of 2023 in the beginning. They also ran player images through AttractivenessTest. It’s a “deep learning model that predicts how humans would rate someone’s facial attractiveness on a scale of 0 to 10.” Wow. I never know something like that existed. They also looked at each players’ nine most recent Instagram posts to find the frequency of comments that feature the “smiling face with heart-eyes” emoji. “The total number of likes on these comments was used as an additional measure to show how much other people agreed with this sentiment,” the study says.

Before we get to the most handsome player, let’s look at the “sexiest” player. The study says that Jimmy Garoppolo of the Las Vegas Raiders is the sexiest NFL player of the season. I do remember watching a Raiders game, and someone being like, “Why do they keep Jimmy G?” because he was having a bad game. I looked at Garoppolo and thought, well, maybe they keep him because he’s really, really good looking. Joey Bosa of the Los Angeles Chargers and Harrison Butker of the Kansas City Chiefs ranked as the second and third hottest players, respectively.

Now, onto the most handsome player in the NFL. That’s Michael Badgley (pictured left above), placekicker for the Detroit Lions. I have to agree that Badgley is adorable and has a really cute smile. So, we’ll see two of these “most handsome” and “sexiest” players this weekend in the NFC and AFC championship games: Badgley with the Lions, and Butker of the Chiefs. Reach out to me with your game predictions here.

5 Hottest Personalities in the NFL Right Now

  • Patrick Mahomes

    Patrick Mahomes, of course, is the star quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs. He’s considered the best quarterback of his era and possibly the next Tom Brady. But, aside from his skills, he also has a big personality. He has more than 6 million Instagram followers, and he posts a bunch of stuff up there, from football material to family photos.

  • Travis Kelce

    Travis Kelce, the celebrated tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, is pretty much the most famous guy in football this season. Yes, it’s because of his relationship with Taylor Swift. I hate to make that a reason to have him named one of the best personalities in the NFL, but heck, even without the Taylor factor, Kelce has a huge personality that people love.

  • Dan Campbell

    All eyes are on Dan Campbell this season, as the Lions all pulling off some incredible things. That’s not common for the Detroit Lions, either. But, Campbell has some of the wackiest ideas and quotes, and that makes him loveable. Remember that time he wanted a pet Lion at practices? I love this dude.

  • Bill Belichick

    Bill Belichick needs no introduction, but we’ll introduce him anyway. He’s the former head coach and general manager of the New England Patriots. He’s had some rough years as of late, but nothing can take away his glimmering record. Belichick just tells it like it is. He’s incredible with strategies, and that really stands out with his coaching.

  • Jalen Hurts

    Jalen Hurts, the star quarterback for the Philadelphia Eagles, is something of a hero on the field. But, off the field, he’s known for his deep, insightful comments that show he has wisdom beyond his years. He’s a major contender and personality.
