Mark Sanchez Covers 'GQ' September 2011

Mark Sanchez wears his team color on the cover of GQ‘s September issue, on newsstands Aug. 23.

Here’s what the 24-year-old New York Jets quarterback had to share with the mag:

On feeling a kinship with Broadway performers: “Their life is so regimented – like mine. They have eight shows a week. They have to take care of their bodies, stretch, eat right, take care of their voices. You know, their voice is like my arm.”

On what he looks for in a girl: “I can’t help but want somebody that’s, I don’t know, athletic. Family is big. My mom has to love her. I mean, love her. Somebody who can handle all this, you know, you can help me handle all this – because I’m still learning. Cynically, I think, ‘Okay, how is this person going to help me with a Super Bowl?””

On his celebrity crush: “[Jennifer Aniston] She’s experienced.”

Mark also showed off his fit physique with a shirtless photo shoot on the football field!
