Chandler Jones, a former outside defensive end for the Arizona Cardinals, disclosed that he had singer Jhené Aiko’s name permanently inked on his bicep.
The athlete discussed Aiko and his tattoos on the Jaxxon Podcast where he introduced the Sativa singer as his “spiritual wife”. The former NFL player claimed that even though they have never met, they have a strong bond.
During the interview with presenters Rampage Jackson and Bear Degidio, Jones talked about mental health and his ongoing tribute to the Eternal Sunshine crooner.
Jones said, “Every girl that I talk to, every girl that knows me, they all want to get married,” in response to the host’s suggestion that he date “a famous chick.”
“However, I always advise them to ‘slide’ because if Jhené Aiko is ever available. If Jhené Aiko’s ever free,” Jones reiterated.
