The Daily Dish Don't Be Tardy

These NFL Smiles Will Melt Your Heart

No matter who takes home the Super Bowl trophy, these players will always have their winning grins.

By Laura Rosenfeld

It's Super Bowl weekend, and soon enough, we'll find out if the Carolina Panthers or the Denver Broncos will reign supreme as this year's champions.

How to Watch

Catch up on Don't Be Tardy on the Bravo App.

However, we think one player appearing in Super Bowl 50 already deserves a trophy for his winning smile: Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton. Every time you see the 26-year-old flash those pearly whites, you can't help but let your own grin loose.

And Cam isn't alone in that regard. Though you can't really see pro football players' faces while they're on the field, what with them having to wear helmets and all, once they take those off, there's often a wonderful smiling surprise underneath.

The following NFL athletes are definitely MVPs when it comes to smiling, and seeing their grins will make you want to celebrate whether your team was victorious this season or not.

1. Cam Newton, Carolina Panthers Quarterback

With that seemingly ever-present grin, Cam always looks like the happiest person in the NFL.

2. Kroy Biermann, Atlanta Falcons Defensive End

With those model looks, it's no wonder Julian was recently spotted next to Andy Cohen in the front row at designer Joseph Abboud's show during New York Fashion Week: Men's.

4. Reggie Bush, San Francisco 49ers Running Back

That's the smile of a Super Bowl champion.

5. Eric Decker, New York Jets Wide Receiver

That beard is the perfect complement to Travis' smile, don't you think?

10. Larry Fitzgerald, Arizona Cardinals Wide Receiver

Our compliments to Larry's dentist.
