Alfred Morris | Mazda 626

Alfred Morris has proven himself with some impressive stats in his rookie season, however, his talent hasn’t gone to his head like most players. In fact, this Redskins running back drives a 1991 Mazda 626 (a car he affectionally calls “Bentley”) and says he wants to keep him as long as possible.

So why have I given this old Japanese car a 7? Part of it is due to the fact retro Japanese cars are becoming cool and collectible, especially in the drift scene, and the other part is respect for Morris’ choice to stick with what he loves.

Top Footballers Cars

Running back for the San Francisco 49ers, Frank Gore is pictured here chilling with his Maserati Quattroporte. Giving the car a little flavor, California Wheels threw on some 22″ burgundy/chrome Asanti AF138s to match the body color – tastefully done, too.

It seems the 49ers players have vision and style when it comes to their rides as here we see Glenn Dorsey with his custom Rolls Royce Phantom. For an NFL player dabbling with customising such a regal car, I think the tints and rims go really well.

I personally detest this crazy Donk fad but thought I’d include one as NFL players seems to like them. Darren McFadden, AKA DMC or D-Mac, is a running back for the Oakland Raiders. I guess the bonus of donks is being able to get to those hard to reach areas when washing your car.

49ers offensive lineman, Chilo Rachel probably chose this whip to allow for his substantial 6’5”, 323 lb frame. Nice to see some rims that match the vehicle well.

Former NFL running back for teams like The Jets, The Bears and The Chiefs, Thomas Jones sure knows how to strike a meaningful pose, and if any car is worth posing in front of is a fire engine red Rolls Royce Phantom.

I had to include this ride as I want it… badly. Tight end for the Tennessee Titans, Delaine Walker definately knows what to do with a classic – forget the Donks and slam it into a Lowrider.

Anthony Davis plays defensive tackle for the San Francisco 49s and clearly knows how to make a jeep look cool. The 23-year-old is a behemoth of a man, so it’s probably best to remove the doors to allow for any overhang.

49ers linebacker,  NaVorro Bowman has his Porsche properly blacked out… in a good way. Simple window and rear light tints and spoked alloys with the yellow callipers on show is the way to correctly pimp out a Panamera.

It’s a well known fact Detroit Lions running back Reggie Bush has a passion for buying cars. The cream of the crop so far in this list is this 1967 Shelby Mustang GT 500 – think Eleanor from Gone In Sixty Seconds. Not a lot to say apart from: Superb.

LaRon Landry plays safety for the Indianapolis Colts and is a player who also buys a lot of cars. He owns a Kawasaki green Lamborghini Murcielago but I think this matte white Aventador with black rims earns the right to grace this page.

Thomas Jones | Rolls Royce Phantom

Running back Thomas Jones made the elite 10,000-yard club with 10,549 yards of rushes over his 12 year career. With his success and millions of dollars, Jones has purchased some exotic cars. Along with his bright yellow Lamborghini Murcielago is this red Rolls-Royce Phantom.

I’m not too sure about the garish red, and as for adding bling rims to a roller, well, that’s like forcing the Queen to wear a pair of sparkling Jimmy Choos.

Ndamukong Suh | Mercedes S-Class AMG

This hulking defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh is known in the automotive world as the Detroit Lions giant from the Chrysler 300 advert and the fact he lost control of his 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle.

His saving grace is piloting this Mercedes S-Class on the Gumball 3000 race. While the Gumball looks like a party packed race, it’s also a lot of miles so to put in seat team like that, you have to be a car guy!

Larry Fitzgerald | Car Collection

Larry Fitzgerald | Car Collection

It’s said that if Arizona Cardinal Larry Fitzgerald had the right quarterback, he’d be one of the best receivers in the NFL. Despite this being out of his hands, he has a few other things he can control. Pictured here with his livery is Fitzgerald’s red BMW 7-Series with matching custom rims. Along with a standard S Class and Range Rover is a powerful SL550.

Fitzgerald also recently appeared in a video at drewsgarageonline.com with his newly completed 68 Shelby Mustang – as soon as we have more pictures we’ll upload them.

Thomas Davis | Chevrolet Camaro

Thomas Davis Chevrolet Camaro

This Carolina Panthers linebacker loves retro muscle cars. He owns a mix of cars that unfortunately include a few ruined classics in the form of donks. Fortunately, he makes up for it by owning a 454 big-block 75 Caprice boasting 750-hp and this Chevy Camaro.

Being a fan of big power, Davis featured in Dub Magazine: “I’m just fascinated by cars,” he admitted. “I love them. It’s always been there, that love. But being able to afford them makes a huge difference. My dad had a lot of cars growing up, and that’s where I developed that love…

…If it’s old school, I love a good strong engine, and the old school that I have, definitely,” Davis continued. “It’s gotta be something with a 400 or better in it.”

The Camaro pictured has been tastefully modded to suit its mean image. The red signatures combined with all that black score a bundle of points with us.

Sedrick Ellis | El Camino

Sedrick Ellis' El Camino

Sedrick Ellis is a former NFL player for the New Orleans Saints and the Chicago Bears. Known for his love of muscle cars, he added this sinister looking Chevrolet El Camino to his collection. He obviously loves the ‘murdered out’ look, as aside from this mean El Camino, he has a collection of muscle cars he calls his ‘Black Beauties’.

Myron Lewis | Audi Q7

myron lewis audi q7

No one ever said that athletes will pick a good set of wheels for their car and one could hope that a good shop could help out but in the case of Myron Lewis and his Q7, that’s not the case. Is it me or do these wheels look like crap on his Q7?

Charles Johnson | Lamborghini Gallardo and 69 Chevy Impala

Charles Johnson Lamborghini Gallardo and 69 Chevy Impala

Carolina Panthers defensive end and team captain Charles Johnson might be nicknamed “Big Money” for his $76 million contract extension he signed in 2011, but he’s definitely not acting like it. The team leader is modest about his success and is more focused on living up to the hype of being a franchise player.

Looking to lead by example so that the Panthers are a top team next season, Johnson isn’t going to be resting this off-season. Instead, he’s going to be working harder than ever to ensure his predictions about his team come true. But he won’t be all work and no play—taking time off to show his rides some love, especially his 2012 Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder LP560 and 1969 Chevy Impala convertible. And he loves both equally, explaining how they’re his all-time favorite rides.

“The Lamborghini was my childhood dream car,” he admits. “I knew when I had enough money, I’d get one.” And Johnson didn’t let his large stature stand in his way of getting his dream ride. He had the seats extended in the Lambo to allow him to comfortably take it out for its weekly ride.

Then there’s his custom ’69 Impala, which was sitting in his garage for a full two years before he got around to tweaking it to his specifications with the help of Ultimate Audio in South Carolina. Now it’s dressed exactly how he first imagined it when he purchased it early in his NFL career. And because he’s an old soul at heart, Johnson also has Ultimate Audio fixing up his latest old school, a 1969 Cutlass that will follow his all-black garage theme.
