Sports Illustrated announced last Friday that Hannah Davis snagged the cover of 2015’s swimsuit edition, and on Monday Davis went on NBC’s “Today” and said she thinks this is the year of the torso.

“I think you’re making it look a lot naughtier than it really is to be honest,” Davis told Matt Lauer because a ribbon graphic covered part of her cover.

“To be honest, I think SI always tries to do something a little different every year, and I think this year, it’s the year of the torso.”

The 24-year-old, well known for dating Derek Jeter, is now making her third appearance in the bikini-filled spread, but said she didn’t expect to make the cover at all. (RELATED: Hannah Davis Is Your 2015 Sports Illustrated Cover Girl)

“It was an overwhelming sort-of moment. I was so blindsided by the whole thing, but it’s an honor.”
