There’s love in the air. Yes, Ashton Jeanty, Boise State’s star running back, is smitten with his athletic girlfriend. The non-power five running back, Jeanty, is quickly making a name for himself. He’s not only a leader on his team but also a dark horse in the Heisman race, giving stars like Travis Hunter a run for their money. The RB is also considered a top draft pick, and the buzz surrounding his potential has intensified, with Dallas fans clamoring for him to be drafted in 2025. Despite the intense competition, Jeanty remains focused on his goals. And one of his goals is always to be there for his girlfriend and show her some love!

On his Instagram story on October 23, Ashton Jeanty reposted a photo of his girlfriend, Gabrielle Miller, and wrote, “Big Season coming” with a red heart. In honor of her Track & Field session, Gabrielle uploaded the original post that same day. The caption said, “proverbs 14:23 🤎 work hard in the dark so I could shine in the light ✨.” It’s pretty cool to see Ashton cheering on his girlfriend in the comments. He left a “DAMN” GIF, showing just how much he’s in awe of her and her athletic endeavors.

Jeanty even expressed his affection by leaving a remark on his girlfriend’s Track & Field blog post, saying, “You know them track runners do it the best🥰😍.” Gabrielle seems to be really skilled at running the track. In case you didn’t know, she qualified for the AAU Junior Olympics in the 4×100-meter event and was an AAU All-American with the ERI Stars. Even so, she began her career in tracks as a regular athlete at Lone Star High School, where she was coached by Sean Coffey. Consequently, having positive relationships offers you more strength, as Jeanty and Gabrielle demonstrate.

But it wasn’t the first time this couple’s love spilled over onto Instagram. Prior to this, Jeanty posted a photo of the two of them on February 15 with the comment, “Nobody but you🫶🏾 #valentines.” You cannot dispute that a player’s first love is always to play for their hometown, even if they have a beautiful girlfriend or wife. The same is true for Jeanty.

Ashton Jeanty’s desire to become a hometown hero

Jeanty has amassed 1,248 yards and 17 touchdowns in six games this season, dominating the NCAA. Because of his stellar performance, there is a great desire among Dallas Cowboys fans to select Jeanty for Dallas in the 2025 Draft, despite the team’s faltering rushing assault. And the most intriguing fact is that Jeanty also expressed the same desire as he wants to play for his hometown.

However, the Heisman candidate once stated in an interview that he would like to play for the Kansas City Chiefs and Chicago Bears. Now, anyway, he would like to play for the Dallas Cowboys, as he said, “I’m not saying they’re not a good fit, I’m not saying that at all. I’m from Frisco, played in their practice stadium. I would be a hometown hero.” Therefore, his commitment to the 2025 season can remove this smoke. We’ll see what he commits to for the upcoming season. Till then, enjoy his incredible and breathtaking collegiate football performance.
