The 10 Hottest Men Wearing Philadelphia Jerseys Right Now

All year long, our lives as Philadelphians (whether we like it or not) revolve largely around the games being played all the way down Broad Street. Whether it’s the traffic, the news stories, the jerseys, or the conversations, our city is constantly buzzing about its sports. And with those sports come athletes. Really hot athletes.

Ever since I became a Philadelphian myself and started actually paying attention to placing names with the faces of our city’s most athletic, I have always been struck with how freaking attractive they all were. Sure, there are some men that may just be good at their sport and not offer up much eye candy for the ladies in the stands, but for the most part, our city’s athletes are smokin. 

This year I became pretty obsessed with the entire Eagles roster (largely due to Instagram), so after planning out a few Man Crush Mondays, I decided to take it one step farther and narrow down the gorgeous men in Philly to ten. Ten men who are too studly for their own good, and who help perpetuate our city’s (or at least its ladies’) obsession with sports.

My list is completely subjective, and I definitely have my “type,” but hopefully you can find some new Philly men to swoon over in this post. Sixers, I apologize in advance.

10. Chase Utley, Second Baseman for the Philadelphia Phillies

Any list documenting sexy Philadelphia men would not be complete without the presence of Chase. He is our city hero, but with gorgeous eyes, sexy hair, and a love for dropping the f-bomb.

9. Wayne Simmonds, Right Wing for the Philadelphia Flyers

I like a man who can get rough, and that’s Wayne Simmonds. I didn’t even mind when his eyes were destroyed and covered in stitches. But seriously, the grin does it for me. I wouldn’t like making adding him to a fantasy hockey team if you want to have your own team you can find more info here.

8. Brent Celek, Tight End for the Philadelphia Eagles

Big. Tall. Strong. = Really. Freakin. Hot. Plus, he owns a restaurant and has a drink named after him at Tequilas.

7. Darin Ruf, Left Fielder for the Philadelphia Phillies

I can’t pinpoint exactly why I have a crush on Darin Ruf, but I do. He’s just a cutie. Nice eyes, too.

6. Zac Rinaldo, Center for the Philadelphia Flyers

One of my friends described Zac Rinaldo as “a little guido,” and I think that made me love him more. We all know he’s definitely got a little fight in him.

5. Luke Schenn, Defenseman for the Philadelphia Flyers

I once thought one Schenn was enough – boy was I wrong. Luke Schenn is like your high school crush, except he has awesome hair and plays professional hockey. Yessss.

4. Brayden Schenn, Center for the Philadelphia Flyers

Can Brayden Schenn not be the cutest human to ever skate on Philly ice? When I first saw this picture, it was love.

3. Connor Barwin, Linebacker for the Philadelphia Eagles

The hair, the beard, the muscles, and the fact that he takes SEPTA are just some of the reasons Connor Barwin is smokin. I just can’t get over this picture either.

2. Mychal Kendricks, Linebacker for the Philadelphia Eagles

I kind of can’t believe Mychal Kendricks is a real person . . . he is so. hot. He is also a Cali boy and snowboards in his free time (so says the TV show I watched the other night) – sign me up.

1. Jason Kelce, Center for the Philadelphia Eagles

As my friends have been hearing for the past few months, I am a Jason Kelce fan. When I first saw the beard, I was smitten. When I heard him on WIP, I fell deeper. When I MET HIM out to dinner a few weeks ago, it was all over. Jason, please let me love you.

Honorable mention: Carlos Ruiz, Catcher for the Philadelphia Phillies

I would be remiss not to include my #1 Philly man and O.G. crush. Banned stimulants or not, I love ya, Chooch.

Putting this post together was likely one of the most time consuming I have ever completed, but it sure was a fun one. What do you think ladies – did I miss anyone? What athlete tops your Philly man crush list?

Another great year mummin around! ☂️⁣ ⁣ Af Another great year mummin around! ☂️⁣

After the mummers parade was rescheduled due to Saturday’s weather, we got blessed yesterday with 60 degrees & even some ☀️! ⁣
⁣
@jimmypennz is a member of the @twostreetstompers, so I joined him and his group stomping down 2nd Street after the official parade. It was great to be with family & friends, dance to the bands, and say “happy new year!” to neighbors & mums all day long. ⁣
⁣
I hope you all had a wonderful start to your 2022! 🖤⁣

🥾 @stompontour … I am OBSESSED! ⁣⁣ ⁣ We 🥾 @stompontour … I am OBSESSED! ⁣⁣
⁣
We go to a good number of shows and plays 🎭, and while I’ve always *heard* of STOMP, I never knew enough about it to pick it over something else. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Last night @kimmelculturalcampus invited me to STOMP’s opening night for their week here in Philly, and I’m officially here to say: pick it, choose it, STOMP IT. 🥾🥾🥾⁣⁣
⁣⁣
My mom & I absolutely LOVED the show. It’s basically 8 (incredibly good looking) men & women that play different “songs” and do different “skits” completely & fully with ordinary objects… like shopping carts, inner tubes, street signs, & so much more. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
But it’s FUNNY! Without saying any words, we got to know the characters (especially @cityboypr’s 😂) and laughed between our whispered “OMGs” and “wooows.” ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I am absolutely so thankful I got to see this iconic show and share my experience. It’s truly a must see - especially appropriate for musicians, dancers, and even kids! 🥁⁣⁣
⁣⁣
@stompontour has 7 shows left now through 1/2, so grab your mask & vax card & head over to see this show that will help you kick off 2022 with a bang! 💥😉⁣
