Super Bowl LIII will feature a pair of teams on opposite ends of the BMI (body mass index) spectrum, according to a study conducted by Tick Pick.

The group analyzed the BMI - a number that reflects body weight adjusted for height - of every NFL team in the 2018 season.

The Seattle Seahawks claimed the top spot with an average BMI of 32.02. They're followed by the Carolina Panthers (31.99) and New England Patriots (31.78).

The Los Angeles Rams - who will face the Patriots in the Super Bowl on Sunday - came in last with an average BMI of 30.55.

Defensive tackle Danny Shelton has the highest BMI among Patriots players (44.39), while center Brian Allen leads the Rams (38.90).

The study also shows the NFL positions with the highest and lowest average BMI.
