As gay man, NFL fan and fantasy football player, I watch football for the excitement of the game but also with an eye for who catches my eye.
When I draft my fantasy football team, looks take a back seat to performance (there’s money on the line after all), but my team below combines both being hot on the field and off. It’s my idea of hotness and yours may vary.
Here is the 2024 All-Hot Fantasy Football Team
Quarterbacks
Get off the sidelines and into the game
Our weekly newsletter is packed with everything from locker room chatter to pressing LGBTQ sports issues.
Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills
Those puppy-dog eyes and his fun demeanor make Allen the golden retriever of NFL quarterbacks. Alas, there are no photos of him exposing his cheeks in Paris when his pants split, but the photo above give you a good angle of his tight rear.
Justin Herbert, Los Angeles Chargers
My favorite player on my favorite team, the ultimate nerdy-cute quarterback who’d be fun to play board games with. He lives alone with a cat, making us practically twins.
Will Levis, Tennessee Titans
A bodybuilder who plays quarterback on the side.
Running backs
Christian McCaffrey, San Francisco 49ers
I’d have my gay card revoked if I failed to include the San Francisco treat.
Saquon Barkley, Philadelphia Eagles
He can squat a small house and would also look good on the catwalk.
Bijan Robinson, Atlanta Falcons
He can rock a football uni and a suit. This second-year pro is ready for a breakout year.

DK Metcalf, Seattle Seahawks

Tight Ends (insert your own joke)
Dalton Kincaid, Buffalo Bills
The eye-black, the headband, the tousled hair, those eyes. What’s not to love about the second-year tight end?
George Kittle, San Francisco 49ers
A big LGBTQ ally and someone who has fun playing the game, Kittle looks like Thor in a football uniform.
Trey McBride, Arizona Cardinals
McBride has two moms and is both a cool dude and hot player.
Kickers
Cameron Dicker, Los Angeles Chargers
Dicker the kicker, seldom misses and always eye-catching.
Matt Gay, Indianapolis Colts
Last name says it all.
Team Defense
Miami Dolphins
We include the Dolphins because of Jaelan Phillips, an LGBTQ ally coming back from a serious knee injury. And for this:
