Well look what we have here!

As Taraji P. Henson enjoys a few weeks off from filming Empire, the actress decided to keep things hot and spicy with a vacation to Miami.

While walking along the sandy beaches, photographers spotted the 45-year-old wearing an Emilio Pucci bikini with matching shorts. She completed her look with fierce sunglasses and a Chanel handbag.

Although we're more than impressed with her bikini body, our eyes quickly glanced over to the man she was holding hands with. So, who's this hunky guy getting a little friendly with one of our favorite stars?

All signs point to NFL athlete Kelvin Hayden who previously played for the Chicago Bears and Indianapolis Colts.

While the pair haven't shared any photos together online or commented on a possible romance, we took a good look at Hayden's Instagram and we like what we see.

In addition to being totally in love with his mom, the football star is quite invested in health and fitness. Whether boxing or lifting weights, the 32-year-old is working hard to look and feel his best.

While good looks are always nice, Henson has been honest about what she wants in a potential boyfriend. As it turns out, it's much more than what meets the eyes. 

"He is funny, has personality; He doesn't take himself too seriously. He needs to be confident in who he is, confident to let me be who I am. And let me shine, you know?" she told Harper's Bazaar. "My life is only going to enhance his light."

Whatever is going on with the twosome, Hayden appears to be more than content with his life right before the New Year.

"Dear God, I'm a huge fan of your work," a quote read on his latest Instagram post. "Thank you."
