There are many ways college football fans can describe Boise State’s running back Ashton Jeanty.
He was a Heisman Trophy runner-up, Maxwell Award winner, Doak Walker Award winner and a unanimous All-American selection. But ahead of the NFL Draft, fans can also describe him as an underwear model.

Jeanty teamed up with SAXX last month to promote the men’s underwear line, which is said to be comfortable underwear for every part of the male body. He told Fox News Digital that never in his wildest dreams did he imagine he would be modeling underwear.
“I didn’t think so, but you know, things just happen, and that’s just how it happened,” he explained. “You know, hot guy, great running back, they want you to model great underwear, so it just happened. I’m glad it happened. It was a step outside my box.”
Jeanty said it was the Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby who selected him to be part of the SAXX brand, and he said the partnership itself made sense to him.

“Being a game-changing player on the field, you need to have groundbreaking underwear to rock,” he said. “I thought it was a perfect collaboration. The design, the comfort, all that stuff, it was a great collaboration with them.”
Jeanty ran for 2,601 yards and 29 touchdowns in his final season at Boise State, nearly eclipsing Barry Sanders’ single-season rushing record.
Boise State won the Mountain West Conference title and earned a bye to the College Football Playoff quarterfinals. The Broncos lost to Penn State.
