    The NFL features an abundance of characters. Some have pretty normal hair, but some just decide not to give a fuck. Many of the players eschew the norms of a simple buzz-cut and decide to etch things, dye, grow, and do pretty much everything under the sun to their hair. We never know what they have under those helmets. Some have the cuts only five year olds have and some have cuts that make statements. From Mark Sanchez's headband to Jared Allen's classic mullet, here are the Most Ridiculous Haircuts in NFL History.

    This isn't the eighth grade anymore, Kyle. Get your shit together!

    Dominique has a history of this. But the Broncos aren't having it. His 'do didn't help in Arizona nor Philly.

    Tiquan was just happy to have a job. Being a free agent, we're sure he'll rush to get a logo shaved into his hi-top fade a.s.a.p.

    17. Troy Polamalu

    Troy will finally be cutting the hair soon for the first time in ten years. It's for a good purpose though.

    16. Domata Peko

    Dare you to get into a bar fight with this guy.

    15. Ben Roethlisberger

    Ben, that haircut makes you look a little pervy. Oh wait...

    14. Anthony Dixon

    Anthony Dixon out here looking like the football Guy Fieri.

    13. Aaron Rodgers

    We're so glad Aaron Rodgers decided to fix that hair after his rookie year. It was a mistake, but it definitely was correctable. Now he's downright flourishing.

    12. Brian Bosworth

    That mohawk/mullet didn't help Bosworth when Bo Jackson knocked him over. He should be obligated to tattoo No. 34 on the side of his fade.

    11. Clay Matthews

    Clay's hair looks like a wet dog, but then again, he plays like a rabid mutt. It kinda fits him.

    10. Jared Allen

    Jared Allen's mullet probably would be good for an appearance on the Walking Dead. His mullet died before his marriage, but came back to life recently this year.

    9. Paul Soliai

    WTF? He looks like he has an animal wrapped around his neck. Wifey needs to tell him to chill.

    8. Antonio Garay

    It's too bad Garay couldn't catch on with a team this season. The No Fun League needs his creativity. Still a ridiculous haircut though. Don't get it twisted.

    7. Mark Sanchez

    Mark needs a fresh start. He should just shave all of his hair off.

    6. Tom Brady

    Whether it's rocking a 'do that is reminiscent of Justin Beiber, or going too hard with the gel, Tom Brady chooses some unique styles for his hair. He's probably content to style his hair whatever way he wants with those rangzzzzz plus his lady is bad.

    5. Aldon Smith

    Aldon is going to be spending some free time to himself, so maybe he can use it by figuring out his life and his hair.

    4. Tim Tebow

    Maybe that haircut could've helped him stay in the league. He should've kept it for the blessings.

    3. Fui Vakapuna

    No you're just looking for attention. Have a seat, please.

    2. Mark Davis

    Most owner's wish that they had hair, but Mark Davis doesn't capitalize on the fact that he actually has hair.

    Horrible. You let Anthony Mason down.
