Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert was seen sharing a kiss with pop star girlfriend Madison Beer prior to his team's game against the Washington Commanders at SoFi Stadium on Sunday (October 5).
Herbert, 27, and Beer, 26, were initially rumored to be dating in August after they were seen together on the set of Beer's music video in Hancock Park, where the singer introduced the quarterback to various crew members before they left together in his car, according to TMZ. A photo of Beer wearing Chargers gear at the team's home win against the Denver Broncos on December 19 resurfaced after the two were initially seen together, which saw Los Angeles rally back from a 21-13 halftime deficit, with Herbert throwing for 284 yards, two touchdowns and one interception on 23 of 31 during the 34-27 win.
Beer had previously dated TikTok star Nick Austin and was linked to Brooklyn Beckham, the son of soccer legend David Beckham and Victoria 'Posh Spice' Beckham, though Beckham later denied the speculation. Herbert is one of the NFL's best young quarterbacks, having won the 2020 Offensive Rookie of the Year award and setting the NFL rookie records for most passing touchdowns (31) and most pass completions (396) after being selected No. 6 overall by the Chargers in the 2020 NFL Draft.
Herbert and Beer are the latest relationship between a top NFL star and an A-list celebrity, following the heavily publicized romance of Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and pop superstar fiancée Taylor Swift, as well as the recent marriage of Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen and Academy Award nominated actress and singer Hailee Steinfeld.
