Ryan & Lauren Tannehill

George & Claire Kittle

George Kittle is one of the emerging tight ends in the NFL, and his talent attracted his newly wedded wife, Claire. The two practically eloped, as they married earlier in 2020 somewhat suddenly, but probably because they were so in love. There’s no doubt they make a great couple.

Travis Kelce & Kayla Nicole

Kayla Nicole and Travis Kelce have been a popular item among pop culture, as both are very respected in their own way.

Jared Goff & Christen Harper

Goff has been QB in L.A for the Rams for multiple years now, so about time he settled down, and with girlfriend Christen Harper, who can blame him? The two have kept their relationship pretty private, but the quarterback–model energy is once again very strong here.

Cam Newton & La Reina Shaw

The way Cam Newton revealed he was with Reina Shaw was quite unexpected, as the two announced a surprise baby early last year. But this doesn’t discount the fact that the two have stayed truly committed to raising their child. Shaw originally lived in an apartment above the restaurant Cam owns.

Mike & Ashli Evans

Mike and Ashli Evans tied the knot a while ago – back in 2016 in fact, and they have a lovely young daughter as well. The two have done a ton for the community in Tampa Bay, where Mike plays for the Buccaneers, and they even host numerous charity events along with his own Mike Evans Foundation.

Kyler Murray & Morgan LeMasters

Kyler Murray is only 22, so it’s only right that his mind is focused purely on football right now.

However his dating life has been kept pretty hush, and although Murray and his girlfriend have been public, they’ve since made much of their social life private.

A.J. Green & Miranda Brooke

A.J. Green of the Arizona Cardinals and his wife Miranda Brooke have been married since 2015, and the two also have been sweethearts since college. They recently welcomed a baby in 2019, and Green continues to support Miranda’s music career when he’s not catching touchdowns.

Adam & Caitlin Thielen

Adam Thielen is a treasure in the fans eyes, but also in those of his wife Caitlin. The two got married after falling in love at the University of Mankato, and they now have 2 adorable children. The couple is a wholesome, midwest love story that’s always remained in Minnesota. Easily one of the cutest couples.

Saquon Barkley & Anna Congdon

Saquon Barkley is New York’s star running back, but since his time at Penn St, he and girlfriend Anna Congdon have sure been tight, even announcing the birth of their child before Barkley entered the NFL officially. Congdon is a renowned Instagram model, and the two are quite easy on the eyes.

Patrick Mahomes & Brittany Matthews

Not only is Patrick Mahomes the hottest name in the NFL – he’s now married to his longtime girlfriend, Brittany Matthews. That’s two huge ring acquisitions for Mahomes, whose Kansas City Chiefs just won the Super Bowl in 2020. The two had been dating since high school, so safe to say their friends and family were stoked for the power couple.

Derrick Henry & Adrianna Rivas

Derrick Henry and Adrianna Rivas have had a flourishing relationship since 2016, and recently had a baby this year! The Tennessee Titans monster running back is a force on the field, but now is his time for fatherhood, and it’s expected he’ll be as good at that as he is on the field.

Aaron Rodgers & Shailene Woodley

Aaron Rodgers just recently got out of a relationship with Indy Car driver Danica Patrick, and before that he dated Olivia Munn.

Mac Jones & Sophie Scott

Mac Jones and girlfriend Sophie Scott have been together since college, meaning she’s been there since he was a star at Alabama, and with his newfound success in New England, it looks like the couple is sticking together for whatever the future holds.

Josh Allen & Brittany Williams

Brittany Williams has been Josh Allen’s #1 supporter long before he became the premier NFL QB in Buffalo that he is today, and perhaps that steady partnership has allowed the two to achieve their dreams, of being in the NFL, and having a blossoming relationship. We can only assume the two will look to settle down sooner than later.

Russell Wilson & Ciara

Perhaps the new version of Tom and Giselle, Russell Wilson and wife and musical artist Ciara have been stunting for years now. They’ve been in commercials, won Super Bowls, done charity events, and everything else you can think of, including having adorable kids. Is there anything this couple can’t do?

DeShaun Watson & Jilly Anais

The Houston Texans QB has largely kept his relationship with Jilly Anais under the rug, but the the two met in Houston, and Anais is an extremely popular Instagram model and social media influencer. They have been dating for over a year now, and continue to match each others energy as Anais puts it.

Kyle Van Noy & Marissa Powell

Patriots’ linebacker Kyle Van Noy played college ball in Utah, where he met then Utah’s Miss USA candidate, Marissa Powell. The two bonded over the fact that Van Noy and Powell’s father and brother are adopted, and fell in love and have been together ever since. Powell still works as a model, and the two are as stunning as any young NFL couple.

Zach & Julie Ertz

Perhaps the second biggest item on this list, Zach and Julie Ertz sure do have a lot of star power. Zach obviously won a Super Bowl with the Eagles a few years back, But Julie has a World Cup under her her belt as a member of the Women’s US National Soccer Team. Can you say, athlete babies?

J.J. Watt & Kealia Ohai

No couple has made a big a splash in Houston than all-star J.J. Watt, who contributed to the relief efforts when the city was devastated by the flooding of a hurricane a few years back. Kealia has been his rock for a while though, as the couple got married in 2016. And guess what? She’s a soccer star herself too!

Sterling Shepard & Chanel Iman

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepherd is a lot less polarizing than OBJ, but his wife sure isn’t. Chanel Iman and he are married, and Iman is one of the world’s top models, best known for her work as a Victoria’s Secret Angel. The two met at Victor Cruise’s birthday party, and the rest is history.

Orlando Brown Jr. & Holly Luyah

Orlando Brown Jr. is a star tackle on the Baltimore Ravens where he makes his money protecting Lamar Jackson, but his other half is just as important.

Golden & Elise Pollard Tate

Wide receiver Golden Tate married his sweetheart Elise Pollard, and the two most recently welcomed a child, the joy of friends, family, and teammates alike. The two met back when Tate was in Seattle, and the two have been going strongly ever since, officially getting hitched back in 2017.

Cooper & Anna Kupp

Cooper and Anna Kupp have been together since they met at Eastern Washington University, and the couple have actually already been married for 5 years! And as you’d expect, the two happily relocated to Los Angeles when he was drafted by the Rams, and safe to say, he’s excelled in the league.

Carson & Madison Wentz

Eagles starting QB Carson Wentz may constantly be scrutinized by the Philly faithful, but his wife Madison is the reason he keeps waking up every day. The two have experienced a fruitful relationship that went from private to very public when he proposed after the Super Bowl. Now the two enjoy their newest gift, a baby girl!

Jordan Poyer & Rachel Bush

Jordan Poyer may be the luckiest man in the NFL, as he bagged the highly sought after Instagram model Rachel Bush, who was allegedly pursued by LeBron James, despite the NBA star having a wife and kids. Bush is a hit on Instagram, and married Poyer as the two have experienced nothing but a healthy relationship since the safety moved to Buffalo.

Christian McCaffrey & Olivia Culpo

Christian McCaffrey is one of the best all-around players in the NFL, and he scored another victory with his girlfriend Olivia Culpo, a previous Miss Universe and current supermodel. The two have been going strong for over a year now, and we have to say, the two make quite the power couple.

Lamar Jackson & Jaime Taylor

Lamar Jackson may be MVP on the field, but he sure is good at keeping his love life a secret. His girlfriend Jaime Taylor and he have been together since Jackson and her attended Louisville in 2017, and Taylor claims Jackson has taught her a ton about keeping their relationship personal while under the spotlight.

Hunter and Parker Henry

Hunter Henry and his wife Parker have not only been married almost 4 years, but they recently welcomed their first child. The two are looking to continue to build off of Hunter’s future, as the young tight end is only getting his NFL career started.

Matt & Kelly Stafford

Fresh off a Super Bowl win in Los Angeles, you have to assume life must be pretty good at home for Matt Stafford, as the longtime Detroit Lions QB now has a title to his name, and a whole family to celebrate it. Luckily for Stafford, his wife Kelly’s been his #1 fan for a while.

Jonathan Taylor & Ayanna Chapman

Indianapolis Colts’ running back Jonathan Taylor and his girlfriend Ayanna Chapman are on a solid path to a fulfilling future, considering the two have been together since they were freshmen in high school! Though they keep a low profile, their relationship seems as solid as ever.

Robert & Alexandra Woods

Robert and Alexandra Woods didn’t necessarily hit it off on their first meeting, but over time the two have become quite the adorable couple as evidenced by their Instagrams. They have been together for more than a few years now, and the two aren’t afraid to flaunt each other’s love.

Derek and Heather Carr

Heather and Derek Carr have been married for some time now, and the two have four kids – three boys and one girl – with the oldest having been born in 2013. Carr’s had a solid career, and his relationship seems to provide a great foundation, as he’s seemingly balanced being a dad and a starting QB pretty well!

Chris Godwin & Mariah DelPercio

Chris Godwin and his high school sweetheart have been texting each other since the freshman year of high school, and now they’ve been engaged and married after 10 years and counting. The two tied the knot after the Buccaneers wideout won the Super Bowl in 2021, and are ready to have their happily ever after, as Godwin’s career is flourishing.

Lavonte & Tondrea David

Lavonte and his wife Tondrea actually met in college in the Miami area where they both went to school, and now the two are happily married and living in Tampa where Lavonte plays for the Buccaneers. Tondrea works as a realtor there, and the two have been going strong thanks to their successful career choices thus far.

Harrison & Isabelle Butker

We had to give kickers some love, and Butker is one of the best in the game right now. The two have known each other for a long time, and went through their high school and college years together. The two married in 2018 and welcomed a son shortly after the Chiefs won the Super Bowl, which is surely a consolation prize.

Tyrann Mathieu & Sydni Russell

The biggest shocker about this relationship isn’t that Matthieu and Russell have been dating since high school, but the fact that Russell’s dad is NFL coach Todd Bowles. The two pursued their relationship through their time at LSU, and are still going strong despite some bumps in the road. Now that they’ve both excelled into their adult lives, they’re moving forward to do what’s best for their children.

Aaron Jones & Crystal Molina

Aaron Jones and his girlfriend announced a little over a year ago that they’d be expecting their first child, which is exciting news for the couple who’ve been dating since 2018 when they both were in school at UTEP. The two are ready to get to the next level of their relationship, as fatherhood and a promising career are surely to keep Jones busy as he becomes a veteran.

Mitch & Hillary Trubisky

Mitch Trubisky is a young quarterback, and in this day in age where social media can be a bother, sometimes promoting your dating life isn’t the best move. Well, Mitch and girlfriend Hillary are no longer shy of letting the world know they’re together, and the two actually got married after dating for just about 3 years. Here’s to wishing them the best, as they now are welcoming a child!

Mark & Chelsea Ingram

Mark Ingram and his wife Chelsea are yet another example of how a lifelong friendship turns out to also make a pretty good marriage. The two have been close since their grade school days, and after marrying in 2017, the two now have two children as well. The two have spoken extensively about what it takes to keep a marriage healthy, and they’re clearly quite the team!

Tyreek Hill & Crystal Espinal

This is quite the touchy couple, as the past history of Hill and Espinal’s relationship was centered around the two’s domestic abuse case, which sent Hill into years of probation after he pled guilty and took a deferred sentence. However, miraculously the two reconciled, and later married as of 2018. In the future, we hope all the worst is behind them and they can start from scratch.

Davante & Devanne Adams

Davante and his wife Devanne clicked back in their California college days, and he knew back then that he planned to make her his own forever. The two have now welcomed in a baby, and the all-star wide receiver is on the brink of making some big moves, considering he’s one of the most talented in the league at his position. The two have looked to be all smiles since he entered the NFL.

Keenan Allen & Ciandra Monique

Ciandra and Keenan got married only fairly recently after he’d proposed a while back, but the couple already had kids and his career in Los Angeles has only gotten better with time. But now that the two are hitched, they’re not scared to show off their family and how much fun they have at the games together!

Kirk & Julie Cousins

Kirk Cousins’ proposal was one for the books, as when he played in Washington D.C., he asked the congressmen to allow him to use his balcony to get down on one knee. The two now have a few kids, a dog, and the QB is having the best phase of his career in Minnesota. You could say it’s going pretty well for this family!

Clyde Edwards-Helaire & Desiree Jones

Both of these two have their roots in Baton Rouge, and they have been dating since they’re 14! Only being 21 explains why they probably haven’t married yet, but after Edwards-Hellaire’s jump to the big leagues has been successful, it’s likely only a matter of time. They both have incredibly bright futures and it seems the support they give each other is a sturdy foundation.

Gardner Minshew & ???

Gardner Minshew is a pretty fresh face in the NFL still, but the Jacksonville QB is turning heads with his fun personality and unique talent on the field. We don’t know much about his current girlfriend at the moment, but we do know that there’s still a debate to be had regarding who has the better looks.
