The city of brotherly love just witnessed one of its rising stars shooting a whole different kind of shot — and this time, it had nothing to do with football!

Taking to X (formerly known as Twitter), Ricks showed he had no chill when it came to complimenting Ivanka’s looks.
“Donald Trump’s daughter is beautiful, damn,” the 23-year-old cornerback wrote after meeting her in person.
But he didn’t stop there. Ricks made sure folks knew exactly where he stood, adding, “after seeing her in person, Ivanka is exactly my type.”
Clearly feeling inspired, Ricks even posted several pictures of Ivanka from that day, where the 43-year-old stepped out in a baby blue jacket that matched the chilly D.C. weather.
And just like that — boom — social media went into a frenzy.
