The official start of fall means it's fit season, when players start dominating the gameday tunnels with eye-popping jackets, sweaters and pants.
Last week, the Philadelphia Eagles played a blazing hot game in Nashville that had players' cleats melting with with temperatures of up to 157 degrees Fahrenheit on the turf. As I entered the Eagles' postgame locker room, the conversation quickly changed to the impact of heat on fashion.
"Man, I know you were hot standing on the sidelines in that suit," offensive tackle Fred Johnson told me.
Defensive tackle Jordan Davis added: "Hell yeah he was hot. But he's fly though. You put that on. You looking like money."
I responded: "Man, if I had your paycheck Jordan, I'd have a whole closet of these fits and not just a handful of pieces. I'll deal with a little bit of discomfort if that means getting the looks off."
There's nothing that warms my heart like fun locker room fashion. But hopefully this is the start of a heat decline with more cloudier 50-to-75 degree days ahead to allow players to comfortably show off their fits.
To kick off Week 3, Green Bay Packers quarterbacks Jordan Love and Tyrod Taylor rocked my two favorite outfits of the Thursday primetime slate.
Love came in shining -- literally -- with a Public School New York x KAY jewelry collaboration jacket: the definition of a statement piece.
Meanwhile, Taylor's Dries Van Noten sweater is the perfect kickoff to fall -- warm but fashion-forward. There are so many fabric design details within this one piece, showing the value of layers.
As always, Sunday is where the big show begins. Here are Week 3 fits that caught our eye:
Thursday Night Fashion
The Green Bay Packers host the Atlanta Falcons to kick off Week 3's slate, and quarterback Jordan Love entered the home opener in style, pairing an oversize studded leather pullover with black trousers, a crisp white shirt and black tie. He completed the look with dark sunglasses and a checkered duffel bag.
