Who hasn’t been curious about whether or not their favorite NFL player is in a relationship or a “free agent”?

Of course, more often than not, these elite athletes have an elite beauty by their side.

But while we may get a little jealous, these PDA-happy NFL couples are just too glamorous to ignore.

Patrick Mahomes and Brittany Matthews

These lovebirds just welcomed daughter Sterling Skye in February.

Mahomes and Matthews (a former pro soccer player!) have been dating since they were just teenagers, much to the chagrin of Kansas City Chiefs fans who are crushing hard on the Superbowl-winning quarterback.

In fact, Matthews had to put up with a lot of grief after Mahomes popped the question on the field last year after the Chiefs Superbowl ring ceremony.

Richard and Ashley Sherman

49ers cornerback Richard Sherman married his girlfriend Ashley Moss in 2018 and the two have acted like newlyweds ever since.

They recently made the news for all of the good work they’ve done together through the Blanket Coverage project from the Richard Sherman Family Foundation, of which Ashley serves as Executive Director.

Christian McCaffrey and Olivia Culpo

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey and Olivia Culpo have been dating since 2019 and since this isn’t the first NFL player she’s dated, Culpo is often on the receiving end of rude comments from McCaffrey fans.

But they don’t seem to let it bother them, posting plenty of steamy photos from a recent vacation to Mexico.

Russell Wilson and Ciara

The Seahawksā€™ quarterback and chart-topping singer are always glamorous, but aim to do good as well.

They run fragrance lines, a sustainable streetwear brand, and just introduced a new project called 13 Commitments, which aims to foster inclusivity, collaboration, and unity. And they do it all while being good partners and parents.

Travis Kelce and Kayla Nicole

These two could rival anyone for the NFL’s most stylish couple. And while they just met last year, there are plenty of photos of them glamming it up at home and on vacation.

The latest Instagram post from the Kansas City Chiefs tight end and self-described ā€œon-camera hostā€ is simply captioned “lover.”

Ryan and Lauren Tannehill

The couple met in Florida back in 2009 and fell for each other fast.

ā€œOur first conversations were funny and deep and we both shared that we loved the Lord from the beginning,ā€ Lauren told the Sun-Sentinel. ā€œI knew he was the one by three months into the relationship.ā€

Now she runs a social media channel and models while her hubby has stepped up to starting quarterback for the Tennessee Titans. The couple has two young children as well.

Josh Allen and Brittany Williams

The beloved Buffalo Bills quarterback and former cheerleader/current pilates instructor have been acquaintances since high school but started dating a few years back.

They certainly do make a beautiful couple!

David and Meghan Johnson

Cardinals running back David Johnson doesn’t always have the perfect season, but he seems to have the perfect partner.

The two met in college in Iowa and the parents of two adorable children.

Eric Johnson and Jessica Simpson

Simpson was married to former quarterback Tony Romo before meeting Yale grad and former 49ers tight end Johnson in 2010.

The couple wed in 2014 and have 3 kids together: Maxwell, Ace, and Birdie.

Eric Decker and Jesse James Decker

These two keep their relationship in the news rather than being on the down-low, even starring in their own reality show.

The country singer and retired wide receiver got married back in 2013 and have 3 children together.

Tom Brady and Gisele BuĢˆndchen

A post shared by Tom Brady (@tombrady)

Possibly the most famous of all of the couples in the NFL the Superbowl-winning quarterback and his supermodel wife met on a blind date and have been married for over a decade.

No matter where they’re seen they always seem to have eyes only for each other.

Colin Kaepernick and Nessa Diab

Kaepernick and radio and television host Nessa Diab started dating in 2015 and are still going strong.

While the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback is no longer on the field, he’ll be front and center for years to come now that he’s signed a deal with Netflix and plans on releasing a memoir. And Diab has always been his greatest defender.

Reggie Bush and Lilit Avagyan

A post shared by Lilit Bush (@lilitslife)

While former running back Reggie Bush and his wife Lilit Avagyan have taken some heat for how much she resembles his ex-girlfriend Kim Kardashian, there’s one big difference – these two are still together.

They now share 3 beautiful children.

AJ McCarron and Katherine Webb-McCarron

The former Miss AL USA 2012, SI Swimsuit model, and current model and artist married the Houston Texans quarterback in 2014.

Despite having three children, the two seem to make plenty of time for one another.

Rob Gronkowski and Camille Kostek

The formerly-retired Patriots (and now Buccaneers) player has been in a relationship with the 2019 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition cover model since 2015.

A friend of the couple told PEOPLE back in 2015, “You can tell they really enjoy being with each other. They both have a great sense of humor and feed off each other really well.”

Philip Wheeler and Ashley Nicole Roberts

The retired Atlanta Falcons linebacker tied the knot with the Army Reserve captain and model at a beachside wedding on CuraƧao in 2017.

Luckily, they get to spend more time together now – in the past, Ashley has reported that she misses her husband greatly when he’s away at training camp.

George and Claire Kittle

A post shared by George Kittle (@gkittle46)

The San Francisco 49ers tight end and his fitness trainer/model wife met while she was still in college.

While they had originally planned a big wedding for 2020, they made the right decision to move the date up to mid-2019 and got married in a jewelry store!

Kyle and Marissa Van Noy

The Miami Dolphins linebacker has had more time to spend at home with his model/philanthropist and former Miss Utah USA-winning wife.

They are both devout Mormons and do a variety of faith-based charity events in their free time.

Sterling Shepherd and Chanel Iman

The NY Giant wide receiver and model wife Chanel Iman are picture-perfect.

And so are their daughters Cali and Cassie.

Seriously, they are one gorgeous group!

Aaron Ross and Sanya Richards-Ross

We’re not sure who the more famous member of this couple is.

The Olympic gold medal-winning track star was in the limelight long before she married the former cornerback.

And fans got an up-close look at their lives on the reality show Sanya’s Glam and Gold.

Christian and Samantha Ponder

A post shared by Christian Ponder (@cpseven)

The former ESPN sideline reporter and former Minnesota Vikings quarterback married back in 2012 and are both spending time focusing on their 3 children.

But if their Instagram photos tell us anything, it’s that they find plenty of time for each other as well.

Andrew East and Sean Johnson

Former Olympic gymnast Johnson married Washington Redskins player, East, in 2016 and their Instagram accounts are both full of fun videos of the couple goofing around together.

They welcomed daughter Drew Hazel in October 2019 and we can only imagine how athletic this little one will be someday!
