Nearly every player in the NFL is already an elite athlete, but these 25 players are a notch above the rest. These are the guys that you’ll find in the gym seven days a week, year round. These are the guys that don’t take a break from their diets to pig out on hot dog-stuffed crust pizza. And these are the guys that will, undoubtedly, make some of the most significant differences in the games you’ll see this year.

The 25 Fittest Football Players

Julius Peppers – Defensive End – Chicago Bears

The biggest man on our list, Chicago Bears defensive end Julius Peppers is not only one of the best defensive linemen in the game, he’s also one of the fastest. Peppers moves his 6'7", 287-pound body around like he’s a lightweight, clocking in on the 40-yard dash in 4.68 seconds. After a few lackluster seasons in Carolina, Peppers has revitalized his career as a member of the bruising Chicago Bears defense by using his rare mixture of strength, speed, size, and raw ability to overpower and outrun his opponents. Imagine trying to block a man his size. Now imagine trying to block a man his size at the speed that Peppers moves. Exactly. Good luck with that.
