It’s safe to say that the vast majority of NFL players don’t really care too much about their hair during the season. They are too busy trying to put up strong individual numbers in fantasy football. However, for personal and/or endorsement reasons, some players have grabbed headlines for their locks.

Here is a look at the best haircuts in the NFL right now.

Clay Matthews
Now that Troy Polamalu is retired, Matthews might take over the title of having the best long hair in the NFL right now. It also helps quite a bit that he is one of the best players at his position in the league, just like Polamalu was. Most guys with long hair don’t come off as intimidating, but he is one of the most feared men on defense in the game.

Tyrann Mathieu
There are plenty of nicknames in the NFL, but Mathieu goes the extra mile to live up to his. Known as the Honey Badger, Mathieu bleaches the top of his hair blonde to play into the name. It might seem like a simple touch, but it goes a long way.

Tom Brady
Love him or hate him, Brady always seems to find a way to be talked about extensively. His hair has always been something people have focused on. He has worn it in numerous styles through the years, and who could forget the balding and subsequent transplant surgery rumors? He’ll be 38 this year, but as the face of a franchise and a husband to a model, Brady has to worry about his looks as well as his fantasy football numbers.
