Justin Herbert and Madison Beer have taken a major step in their relationship, announcing their engagement on Instagram on Tuesday.
Beer shared the news with a post captioned, “Meet my fiance.” The set included four photos of the couple kissing, hugging, and smiling together, and one image showed the engagement ring on Beer’s left hand.
The announcement comes nearly a year after the two first began dating. People first noticed Herbert and Beer together in August 2025, when photographers saw Herbert visiting Beer while she was working on a photoshoot or music video in Los Angeles.
The two were chatting and laughing on set before leaving together. A few days later, they were spotted heading to a friend’s house in Redondo Beach.
Their relationship became more public in the months that followed. In September 2025, photographers captured them holding hands during casual outings. A month later, they were seen sharing several kisses on the sidelines of SoFi Stadium before the Chargers’ game against the Washington Commanders.
Since then, Herbert and Beer have appeared together at Lakers games, a World Series game, Chargers Halloween events, and other public outings.
Though Herbert is usually private, he opened up about the relationship this year. For Beer’s birthday in March 2026, he posted an Instagram story calling her his “favorite person” and saying he was the “luckiest guy alive.” Beer replied that it was her “dream come true.”
The couple made things Instagram official in April 2026, and Herbert also appeared in her “lovergirl” music video, where they spent time at the beach and played cards.
Beer has previously spoken about marriage, saying she wanted a traditional engagement ring because she was “basic with certain things” with certain romantic traditions. She has also credited Herbert with supporting her career, including attending her Locket Tour and her headline performance at the Kia Forum.
Herbert will now turn his attention to his seventh NFL season with the Chargers.

An Overlooked Rams Defensive Back Is Forcing His Way Into Focus
Cam Lampkin has been one of the early standouts in Rams training camp, a notable turn for an undrafted defensive back who has spent the past two seasons on the practice squad after signing with Los Angeles in 2024. He has given the staff a little more to think about by showing he can handle both cornerback and safety, the kind of versatility that can keep a player in the conversation even when the roster math gets tight.
Lampkin also flashed some promise in last years preseason, but consistency has been the missing piece, and that is still the test in front of him now. A strong opening to camp can grab attention, but the real challenge is sustaining it long enough to force his way onto the active roster and turn an encouraging start into something more permanent.

Davante Adams Has Taken On An Unexpected Rams Camp Role
Training camp has already offered one of the Rams more interesting subplots, with Davante Adams spending time helping Emmanuel Forbes Jr. sharpen the parts of his game that can decide whether a cornerback sticks in this league. Forbes is trying to clean up his coverage and tackling, and the veteran receiver has become a useful sounding board as the two work through those details on the practice field.
Forbes is in the final season of his rookie contract, which gives every rep a little extra weight as he tries to show he can handle more than just flash plays. The early signs have been encouraging, too, with Forbes responding to Adams coaching in practice and showing a willingness to take the lessons into the next rep, exactly the kind of camp development teams hope to see before the real games begin.

NFL Coaches Just Sent Sean McVay A Surprising Message
Sean McVays reputation around the league got another interesting check-in this week, and it came from the people who spend their Sundays trying to stop him. In a poll of eight defensive coordinators conducted by The Athletic, the Rams coach was rated among the NFLs elite offensive play-callers, with the range of opinions showing just how much respect his game-planning still commands.
The spread in those rankings says as much about McVays evolution as it does about his standing. Defenses have seen him move from wide-zone and play-action looks to more empty formations with Matthew Stafford, then into a gap-and-duo run game and, more recently, heavier tight-end usage. Even with that constant adjustment, his influence keeps showing up elsewhere too, including through former Rams assistants who have climbed the coaching ladder while carrying pieces of his offensive approach with them.
