Here Are The 24 Athletes Who Will Appear Naked In ESPN’s Body Issue

If LeBron James has taught us anything, it’s that everyone wants to see what pro athletes look like naked. For this, we thank ESPN and their magazine’s annual Body Issue, for affording fans that opportunity with the informed consent of the naked ones, and without pesky concerns like “Is this pornography?” and “Is it tastefully done?”

Headlining the chosen 24 athletes are New York Giants wide receiver and Madden coverboy Odell Beckham, Jr., Washington Nationals superstud outfielder Bryce Harper, U.S. Women’s soccer player Ali Krieger, and Phoenix Mercury center Brittney Griner, all of whom are pictured below. ESPN’s announcement also included a video trailer for the issue, which can be viewed here.
