Jaxson Dart is making waves both on and off the field, but this offseason, it's his girlfriend, Marissa Ayers, who's grabbing some of the spotlight. NFL fans started piecing things together about the couple around the midway point of the 2025 season.
The clues were hard to miss, especially when Ayers was seen with Dart’s family at a "Monday Night Football" matchup between the Giants and the Patriots. The duo made their relationship public with a red carpet appearance at the “NFL Honors” ceremony in February.
Dart opened up about their relationship, saying, “I think that just in the world that we live in, we try to keep as much as we can, you know, between us. I think that when you’re in this space, you wanna make sure that it means something. So, I’m excited for it, and she’s the best.”
Ayers, a University of Alabama alum, has been gaining popularity on Instagram and other social media platforms, thanks to her work as an influencer. She's also known for her role as a ring girl with Most Valuable Promotions. Recently, she was in the Bahamas for a photo shoot with White Fox Boutique, and one of her swimsuit photos created quite a buzz online.
On the field, Dart had an impressive rookie year with the Giants, racking up 2,272 passing yards, 487 rushing yards, and 24 total touchdowns. Despite these numbers, he only snagged one first-place vote for Offensive Rookie of the Year.
Dart addressed this, saying, “I guess more people have conversations and things to say about me sliding that has nothing to do with my play on the field. …Turn off the pictures of the players and just look at the numbers, I feel like they speak for themselves, I don’t need to argue that.
I have respect for the other guys that were part of it. … It’s a chip on my shoulder for sure.”
With John Harbaugh stepping in as head coach, Dart’s sophomore season could be something special. Fans and analysts alike are eager to see how this talented quarterback continues to grow and lead his team.
