Athletes have never cared more about style. The NBA dress code and social media peacocking have revolutionized the way our favorite sports stars dress themselves, and gone are the days of garbage-bag suits, pinstripes everywhere, and this thing. That said, not everyone's caught up to the times, which is why each week, we'll be highlighting the poor souls who are still running the proverbial triple option of sartorial playbooks.
This week, Christmas brought upon a whole sleigh ride of holly, jolly fails, quarterbacks still can't get their act together, and more. These are The Worst Athlete Style Fails of the Week.
Robert Griffin III
Say what you will about the Redskins, but would you want a man who dresses like this to be your quarterback?
Philip Rivers
Philip Rivers is from Alabama. Oh, no reason, just sayin'.
Andre Drummond
Had us at the long shirt, lost us at Judy Garland's golden Timbs.
Shavlik Randolph
When your buddy's got the fire Christmas alphet and you still can't figure out how pants work.
Spencer Hawes
Is bad style still bad if it's intentionally bad? A question for the philosophers, probably; all we know is, this Christmas suit is bad.
Jason Thompson
Again: intentionally bad? Ironically bad? Or just bad bad? Postmodernism is hard, man.
Ryan Tannehill
On its own it's not bad, but c'mon man, you're a quarterback: you can't bring a bro shirt to a suit fight.
Tony Romo
As a Cowboys fan, duuuude, why are you jinxing this.
Jason Pierre-Paul
When nitpicky style recaps meet ties that are wayy too short.
Odell Beckham, Jr.
You know what Morrissey said: When your hair is wrong, your whole tie is wrong.
