This is Vince Wilfork as we've never seen him before.
The Texans nose tackle and 12-year NFL veteran will grace ESPN the Magazine's Body Issue. The cover featuring a naked Wilfork was released today. The magazine will be available Wednesday, July 6.
So why'd he decided to bare all for the magazine?
"I just think it's a good idea for people that are bigger-boned," Wilfork told ESPN. If people can look at me, a guy that's 325-plus, doing an issue like this, I'm pretty sure that they might have a little confidence. There will be critics, just like with everything else.
