Robert McClain got Basquiat and Da Vinci tattooed on his arm

Many people have messed up assumptions about the intellectual depth and versatility of NFL players. The jock stereotype (as well as a few far less savory ones) runs deep. So it’s always fun when an NFL player can discredit that kind of nonsense.

Enter Robert McClain, who talked to the Tampa Bay Times about his love for Michel Basquiat and Leonardo da Vinci, and how they inform his art. Yes: McClain’s an artist.
