Additionally, this famous player has won multiple honors and awards for his solid performance, including the Maxwell Award and the Heisman Trophy.
4. D.J. Moore:
➼ Position: Wide Receiver

D.J. Moore is hot as hell and undoubtedly one of the hottest NFL players at the moment. This wide receiver in the NFL plays for the Carolina Panthers.
So, between 2015 and 2017, Moore played at Maryland. In his freshman year, Moore started ten out of 12 games, recording 3 touchdowns, 357 yards, and 25 receptions.

Christian McCaffrey also plays for the San Francisco 49ers, like Jimmy Garoppolo – but unlike Garoppolo, he plays as a return specialist and running back in the NFL.
After playing collegiate football at Stanford University, McCaffrey was the 8th overall pick by the Panthers in the NFL Draft of 2017. In 2015, when McCaffrey was a sophomore, he became runner-up for the much-coveted Heisman Trophy.

6. Tee Higgins
➼ Position: Wide Receiver
➼ Team: Cincinnati Bengals
Tamaurice William “Tee” Higgins is one of the hottest and most organic players in the NFL. He currently plays for the Cincinnati Bengals and is one of the most talented players of all time. Make no mistake, he might seem cute, but he is actually a beast on the field. A true star.
7. Travis Kelce
➼ Position: Tight End
➼ Team: Kansas City Chiefs
Kelce has recently become the most popular NFL player ever since Taylor Swift started dating this handsome hunk of a man. With looks and stats to die for, kelce is definitely an MVP in my book. But he is much more than a pretty face, as can be seen from his current stat.
8. Harrison Butker
➼ Position: Placekicker
➼ Team: Kansas City Chiefs
Born on July 14, 1995, Butker is one of those rare athletes who can not only play but look amazingly well while doing it. He is currently playing for the Kansas City Chiefs alongside Kelce. As a result, it seems that all the hot men are playing for the Kansas City Chiefs.
9. Kevin Byard
➼ Position: Free Safety
➼ Team: Tennessee Titans
Kevin Leon Byard III of the Tennessee Titans is the epitome of the male peak athletic form. He is a safety and is one of the most attractive men in the NFL. This Nubian prince has managed to complete 749 tackles, 28 interceptions, and 66 pass deflections in his career.
10. Stefon Diggs
➼ Position: Wide Receiver

Buffalo Bills is full of handsome hunks. But Stefon Diggs is a class apart. He is easily one of the most attractive players on the current Bills roster. He is originally from Maryland but has moved a lot for his football career. But he eventually started playing for the Buffalo Bills, and the rest is history.
11. T.J. Watt
➼ Position: Linebacker
➼ Team: Pittsburgh Steelers
Trent Jordan Watt, or TJ Watt, is like the NFL’s personal Thor. Watt is built like a mountain but moves like a river. As a result, there is a different kind of sex appeal this American Linebacker has on the game. Back in college, Watt was given a three-star status by several agents. A testament to his greatness.
12. Jaire Alexander
➼ Position: Cornerback
➼ Team: Green Bay Packers
Jaire Zakar Alexander of the Green Bay Packers is one of the best-looking men in the NFL. The tattooed athlete has an imposing aura, and his overall style matches that aura to a great extent. He is primarily a cornerback, but back in college, he primarily played as a starting cornerback.
13. Chase Claypool
➼ Position: Wide Receiver
➼ Team: Chicago Bears
Claypool is one of the rarest Canadian-American athletes who has managed to become a huge phenomenon in the world of American Football. Currently, this player primarily plays for the Miami Dolphins as a wide receiver. He started playing football in college and has played for teams like Notre Dame and Pittsburgh Steelers.
14. Odell Beckham Jr.
➼ Position: Wide Receiver
➼ Team: Los Angeles Rams
Odell Beckham Jr., or OBJ, is a wide receiver playing for the Baltimore Ravens. His aesthetic appeal and purple hair might make you feel like he is all looks and no game. But that is farthest from the truth. Odell Beckham Jr. is one of the best and most prominent players on the field.
15. Robert Woods
➼ Position: Wide Receiver
Team: Tennessee Titans
Robert Woods is the epitome of the big and beautiful. Standing at 6 feet tall and weighing around 88 kg has not stopped him from being one of the best players in the NFL. Earlier, he used to play for the Rams, but now he has shifted to the Texans.
