Yes, that’s Danny Amendola wearing a red jumpsuit and looking a lot like a member of a terrible boy band. Why? Because the Patriots receiver was among a couple of NFL stars — Rob Gronkowski and New York Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr. were the others — who dressed up in jumpsuits designed by Kid-Rid, an apparel company owned by former Pats running back Stevan Ridley, and then posed for pictures in, of all places, Drake’s backyard. (Beckham Jr. is apparently bunking with Drake while the singer wraps up work on his new CD.) The pictures were posted on Kid-Rid’s Instagram account.
