Per tradition around this time of the year, athletes are getting creative with their Halloween gameday fits. Stars such as Giannis Antetokounmpo and Joe Burrow are starting to show off their costumes, and so far the results have not been disappointing.
Some costumes are funny, some are nostalgic and some are scary, but the whole point was to not take the process too seriously — unless you are New York Jets linebacker Quincy Williams, who dressed up as the Joker from DC Comics.
“Why so serious? Because it’s game day,” William said before the Jets’ game against the Giants.
