Micah Parsons, Patrick Surtain II Lead NFL’s Five Best-Dressed in Week 4
Alright, fashion-forward football fans, let’s dive into another week of gridiron glamour! If you caught our Week 3 edition of "The Fit Files: NFL’s Five Best-Dressed," you know the defense is stepping up its style game. Last time, Jaelan Phillips snagged the top spot with a last-minute outfit that was pure gold. This week, two of the league’s fiercest defenders are battling it out for the crown, including a certain pass rusher who wanted to make a statement against his old squad.
Before we get to the rankings, let’s remind ourselves who’s calling the shots on this sartorial showdown:
- Terron Armstead: This guy knows a thing or two about protecting the quarterback and looking good doing it. A five-time Pro Bowler with the Saints and Dolphins, Terron now hosts "The Set" podcast on YouTube. Check it out Mondays and Thursdays for his takes on football and fashion.
- Jamie Erdahl: She’s the face of "Good Morning Football" on NFL Network and the nationally syndicated "GMFB OT." Jamie keeps us up-to-date on all the NFL happenings, and she’s got a keen eye for style.
- Jason McCourty: A Super Bowl champ and former cornerback for a bunch of teams (Titans, Browns, Patriots, Dolphins), Jason now brings his insights to ESPN and CBS as an analyst. He knows what it takes to win on the field and in the style department.
- Chad Johnson: No, not that Chad Johnson (Ochocinco). This Chad Johnson is a custom clothier and designer for Duane & Johnson menswear tailoring. He’s the real deal when it comes to crafting impeccable looks.
- Cameron Wolfe: That’s me! I’m a national TV reporter for NFL Network, and my fashion philosophy is simple: "Dress how you want to be addressed and wear what helps you exude, ‘I’m HIM.’" Confidence is key, folks.
How We Roll
So, how do we decide who makes the cut? Our panel votes on the pregame fits we see from Thursday to Monday. First-place votes get five points, second-place gets four, and so on. If a player has earned votes before, we’ll list their season point total and note any previous top-five finishes.
Without further ado, let’s get to the winners from Week 4, counting down from No. 5!
5. Jameis Winston (7 Points)
Okay, Jameis, you’ve got our attention. Camel toe shoes! Talk about a bold choice for pregame attire. It just goes to show, you never know what Winston will pull out of his closet (or what he’ll say to the media). But hey, the accessories all complement him, and it matches his personality well.
4. Mecole McCloud (8 Points | Season Total: 17)
Mecole is becoming a regular in our weekly rankings, and for good reason. He’s creative, fearless, and seems to pull off every calculated risk he takes with his style.
Chad Johnson (the designer, not the receiver) gave McCloud his No. 1 vote, praising how he manages to stand out without looking like a walking clash.
3. Patrick Surtain II (9 Points)
Nothing beats an all-white fit, especially when you add a pop of color with a red accessory bag. Surtain’s pregame look was as smooth as his lockdown coverage of Ja’Marr Chase on Monday night. Effortless swag, plain and simple.
2. Micah Parsons (12 Points)
Micah came to play on Sunday night against his former team, the Dallas Cowboys, and he made that clear from the moment he stepped off the bus. He rocked what was clearly the best suit of Week 4.
Jason McCourty gave Parsons his No. 1 vote, saying, "That’s the, ‘They going to miss me when I’m gone,’ fit."
Parsons’ cream pinstripe suit was tailored to perfection, and it paired perfectly with a black tie that screams, "I’m here to handle business."
Just Missed the Cut
It was a close race, and these guys deserve a shout-out for their style efforts:
- Cam Heyward (5 points)
- DJ Reader (5 points)
- Puka Nacua (4 points)
