“I swear to god, this is just a guy leaving the gym,” he said in reaction to the photos. “I wasn’t even thinking about it. The shorts are normal length, but when I work out I kind of pull them up so I can work a little harder. It’s even a joke around some of my friends that are inside the gym when I’m there. We all know one another. [When I] get under a bar or get on a machine and my shorts get hiked up really high, then everyone kind of hoots and hollers.”

“But I literally was just a guy leaving the gym. I had no idea, so whatever anybody got excited about, or GQ calling it short shorts for summer, I’m excited about. Whatever you wanna do, that’s cool. I wasn’t expecting it,” he said.
