At the New England Patriots Hall of Fame induction ceremony this week, former Detroit Lions wide receiver Danny Amendola was seen sitting at the same table as Sports Illustrated Swimsuit rookie DJ Xandra Pohl. Fans quickly noticed the pair, sparking rumors about their relationship status.
Pohl, who has become a household name thanks to her impressive debut in the magazine’s annual swimsuit issue this year, expressed her admiration for the magazine’s legacy and its impact on women of all shapes and sizes. “We are all beautiful and confident in our own bodies,” she said during her acceptance speech. “I believe that is the most important legacy to leave behind.”
Amendola, 38, retired from the NFL in 2022 after spending two seasons with the Detroit Lions and winning Super Bowl rings with the Patriots in 2014 and 2016. In his 14-year career, he accumulated an impressive 617 receptions, 6,212 receiving yards, and 24 touchdowns while also playing for the Dolphins and Rams.
