Sanchez puts backfield in motion

New York Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez solidified his status as an NFL punchline with his infamous butt-fumble against the New England Patriots in November. He even has this statue to prove it .

Now, seven months later, it’s Sanchez’s own rear end that has the internet abuzz.

See, Sanchez has apparently been spending some time in Napa Valley lately, along with a woman named Alana Kari. We know this because Kari shared — and then quickly deleted — several Vine videos from her trip to wine country, some of which (sadly, they've all been removed from YouTube) included Sanchez.

But Sanchez partying out west with a reported LA socialite during the offseason, while interesting, doesn’t ruffle too many feathers. What does get people talking, however, is video of Sanchez’s bare backside dancing around the kitchen, which is exactly what Terez Owens unearthed and posted to the internet. ( Warning: Video contains naked butt.)

We can’t show you the actual video, for obvious reasons — you can visit T.O. for that — but here’s an edited screenshot. You can trust us when we tell you that the pixelated part of the image is, indeed, a rump.

Now that we know how Sanchez spends his time when he heads to the left coast during the summer, it’s easier to understand why Jets rookie QB Geno Smith is still so non-committal about attending Sanchez’s “Jets West” camp later this offseason.
