The seven magical days of Valentine’s week are almost over. Today sets the tone for the 14February finale. With couples becoming ever so zealous to express their love, Quinn Ewers isn’t better than any other. The face of the Texas Longhorns‘ resurgence, or now as an NFL-bound quarterback. But while the football world debates his draft stock and potential landing spots, Ewers is also quietly celebrating something far more personal, and today marks yet another magical day for the NFL-bound QB with his rival college beloved from the University of Oklahoma.

The Texas native, known for his signature mullet and ice-cold composure on the field, has also built a strong foundation of it. His relationship with Mady Barnes has been a constant in his life. Their love story first became public in February 2023 when Barnes posted a series of photos from a night out in Austin. Despite coming from rival schools — Texas and Oklahoma, who share one of the fiercest rivalries in sports — their bond has only grown stronger. And now, as Valentine’s week unfolds, they have another reason to celebrate.

Barnes took to Instagram to mark a significant moment in their relationship, sharing a heartfelt message alongside a photo of the two in her Instagram story. In the picture, the couple radiated happiness, with Barnes leaning affectionately against Quinn Ewers. The caption in the top left corner of her story read, “2 years with my person,”. In a world where relationships, especially those in the public eye, can be fleeting, their commitment is evident. And she didn’t stop there.

Expressing her emotions even further, Barnes penned another message that captured the depth of her feelings. “Can’t imagine a life without you, I love you so much,” she wrote, accompanied by two heart emojis. It was a rare glimpse into the personal side of a quarterback who, despite the fame, has remained relatively low-key about his personal life. But what made the moment even more special was Quinn Ewers’ response. The former Longhorns QB shared her story on his own Instagram, adding his own three-word message to mark the occasion.

With two heart emojis of his own, Ewers kept it simple yet meaningful: “love ya darlin’.” A phrase that perfectly encapsulates his easygoing Texas charm, but also one that speaks volumes about the strength of their relationship. The two Texas lovebirds appeared more recently, during a September 2024 appearance on Sundae Conversation. For Ewers, who is now preparing for the next chapter in his career, Barnes has been that person.

As he turns his focus to the NFL, his draft destination remains uncertain. Some mock drafts, including one from NFL.com, have projected Ewers as a later-round pick for the Cleveland Browns — a fascinating possibility given the presence of Deshaun Watson and his massive $230 million contract. But before that, let’s see a future NFL QB1’s viral dance.

Quinn Ewers & Mady Barnes, the offseason distraction we didn’t know we needed

With football now on pause for nearly 200 days, fans are desperately looking for anything remotely gridiron-related to keep them entertained. And over the weekend, Texas QB Quinn Ewers and his girlfriend Mady Barnes unintentionally delivered.

The couple took part in a TikTok trend, and let’s just say — it took off. The video posted by Barstool Longhorn has already surpassed two million views on X, giving fans a rare glimpse into Ewers’ more playful side. Typically seen as a serious, laser-focused quarterback, Ewers showed off a lighter, more relaxed personality, proving that even future NFL prospects need to cut loose every now and then.

And while his off-field moments are getting attention, his on-field numbers weren’t too shabby either. The 2024 CFP semifinalist, under Steve Sarkisian, wrapped up the season and his CFB career with 3,472 passing yards and 31 touchdowns, cementing himself as a top NFL Draft prospect.

Now, as he prepares for the NFL Combine, fans will be watching closely—both for his draft stock and maybe a few more unexpected viral moments.
