          The first NFL Week has arrived, and with it comes fresh fits around the league.

          In recent years, NFL players' arrival outfits have become more sophisticated and diverse. Sometimes, they are suited and booted. Other times it's simply trendy streetwear.

          "It's like I put on a costume," Dallas Cowboys linebacker Von Miller told ESPN. "It gives me a different energy, a different spark."

          Miller isn't the only player who believes a great fit can set the tone before a game.

          "When I put on a fire fit, I tell myself it's time to turn up. We are going to have a day," Washington Commanders defensive lineman Charles Omenihu said. "I like to be recognized as one of the best dressed. Your fit has to match your play. I take pride in being fly."

          The first two games of the season, on Wednesday and Thursday, gave us a glimpse of what we could see during players' arrivals this year. Now, as the Week 1 action continues, even more players must battle the September heat for their best pregame looks. So if they make this list, you know they brought the smoke.

          Here are the best looks from around the league in Week 1.

          Monday night drip

          Making his debut with the Kansas City Chiefs on "Monday Night Football," running back Kenneth Walker III arrived in an all-white suit with a black shirt underneath. He also rocked white loafers from the brand, Duke + Dexter. Patrick Mahomes completes his injury comeback, and kept it simple with an all-black look and sunglasses.

          New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers blended new age with business with his burgundy wine jacket with shirt and tie combo coupled with a short pairing.

          For Dallas, Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott looked sharp, making his way to the stadium for a road game against the Giants. Prescott wore a navy pin stripe suit with brown loafers.

          Favorite from 4 p.m. slate

          Philadelphia Eagles QB Jalen Hurts donned a medium wash button-down denim shirt with matching pants and Jordan 11's on his feet. Hurts loves his monochromatic vibes and this all jeans suit set was a hit.
