ESPN The Magazine's 'Body Issue' big and beautiful with Vince Wilfork

ESPN The Magazine's photographers needed a wide-angle lens for one of this year's "Body Issue" shoots.

Longtime NFL nose tackle Vince Wilfork — all 325 pounds of him — is unquestionably the biggest attraction in the 2016 edition of the issue, which features athletes in various states of undress.

The roster of models also features fellow football standouts Antonio Brown and Von Miller, MMA star Conor McGregor, Cubs pitcher Jake Arrieta, a host of Olympians, and transgender duathlete Chris Mosier.

But the biggest get for ESPN might be Dwyane Wade, who apparently turned down the magazine seven years in a row before agreeing to pose this time.
