With another Monday Night matchup providing some context to an enigmatic NFC playoff picture, the contest between the Chicago Bears and New Orleans Saints should be a good one, relatively speaking. With that in mind, our Week 15 edition of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/mnf-spotlight\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>MNF Spotlight<\/strong><\/a> features two previous members as we&#8217;ll spotlight <strong>Martellus Bennett <\/strong>of the Chicago Bears and <strong>Kenny Vaccaro <\/strong>of the New Orleans Saints. To see more, flip through the pages below to take a look at their respective collections.<\/p>\n<p>Some may argue that <strong>Martellus Bennett<\/strong> has been one of the best tight ends in the NFL this season. With a season that has placed him within the Chicago Bears&#8217; record books, Bennett looks poised to continue his assault of opposing secondaries within the waning weeks of the NFL season. While Bennett has emerged on the scene to many novice, the stellar player hailing from Texas easily has one of the best sneaker repertoires in the league; <em>and has for some time now<\/em>. With an eclectic mix of high-fashion collaborations such as the <strong>Ricardo Tisci Nike Air Force 1s<\/strong> or retro runners from the likes of\u00a0<strong>Saucony<\/strong>, Bennett understands the culture. However, it may be his on-field aesthetic that has captured our attention, as he has laced a variety of Air Jordan custom cleats this season such as the <strong>Air Jordan 6s <\/strong>and<strong> Air Jordan 12s<\/strong>, as seen below.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<p>The past few weeks have been pretty rough for <strong>Kenny Vacarro<\/strong> and the Saints, as tough losses have placed them 3 games under .500. However, with the NFC South being pretty anemic this season, the New Orleans Saints are not too far removed from playoff contention. With Vacarro being one of the brightest young stars in the game, his impact will surely be appreciated by Sean Payton and company. Another forum in which Vacarro is appreciated is within the NFL sneaker culture, as the second-year pro hones a solid rotation of quality kicks. Whether its a high-fashion model or a quintessential Air Jordan retro, the Texas native understands the essentials of any formidable collection. It&#8217;ll be interesting to see how Vacarro&#8217;s sneaker collection grows as his career and name ascends within NFL circles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s pretty surreal to see that the NFL season is almost at its conclusion, as yet another week of action&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":149,"featured_media":421380,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1219126],"tags":[1220879,1208882],"cultivate_rss":[],"class_list":{"2":"type-post"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.0 (Yoast SEO v24.0) -
