When the Bills traded for Amari Cooper midway through the 2024 season, it felt like a bold move. But hey, when you’re chasing the Lombardi Trophy, you’ve got to throw some deep balls, right? Josh Allen summed it up perfectly: “He’s only continued to learn the playbook… It’ll be kind of plug-and-play and feel pretty seamless out there.” And seamless it was—Cooper snagged 44 receptions for 547 yards and 4 touchdowns in just half a season.

Not bad for a mid-season pickup, huh? But it’s not just Cooper’s on-field plays making headlines. You see, as much fun it is to see a WR-QB relation grow on the gridiron, off the field the players have their own chemistry to build on. Allen and Hailee Steinfeld are engaged, and now Cooper’s got the internet buzzing. Well, more like, thanks to his rumored relationship with Destiny Jones. Curious? ‘Us’ moment… Let’s see what the buzz is all about.

Who is Destiny Jones?

Amari Cooper might just have done enough on the gridiron to create noise whenever the pigskin falls in his grasp. But when it comes to his personal life with Destiny Jones, the star receiver plays a much quieter game. I mean, he has literally been the weapon of Dak Prescott and now Josh Allen’s… So, fair is due, in keeping it a mystery!

But this is about Destiny. Cooper’s rumored girlfriend and a fascinating personality in her own right, was born in De Monica. From an early age, she knew her way around audiences (well, well, well, no stage fright like Cooper, hmm…)… Tip-toeing her way around them with her swift dance moves. You might think: ‘How good?’ Well, how about earning national competition titles good? Yeah, you read that right.

However, it only fueled her interest as she joined Alabama State University’s Stingettes squad. But Jones wasn’t just about rhythm. She combined her passion for community service with leadership, becoming President of Pinky Promise—a group empowering women to honor their values. She even launched My Sister’s Keepsake, an initiative helping young women in Montgomery, Alabama.

Now a therapist and entrepreneur, Jones shines beyond the sidelines. Her Matic Cosmetics brand, inspired by hip-hop culture and streetwear, brings a fresh spin to beauty. I mean, that screaming, whatever you can do, I can do, energy and we are all here for it to cheer for Amari and Destiny… But how and when did the couple come about to matching it play-by-play?

When did Amari Cooper and Destiny start dating?

Like we mentioned before, Amari Cooper and Destiny have done well in keeping the spotlights away from them. But fans being fans, they’ve pieced together some clues about their relationship.

One big hint? Video from the 2015 NFL Draft. There she was, sitting to Cooper’s left, clapping and celebrating as he was picked fourth overall. That moment pretty much confirms they’ve been a duo since at least their college days.

Neither Cooper nor Jones has ever gone full-on Instagram official, so the timeline of their romance remains a bit of a mystery. But hey, isn’t that part of the allure? Cooper has always been more about letting his game do the talking. “I feel good. I’ve always wanted to be on a team like this,” he told ESPN when reflecting on his career.

It’s clear that his focus has always been on the gridiron, and perhaps that’s why he keeps his off-field life low-key. But now, as Cooper preps to face the Ravens in the divisional round, don’t be surprised if you spot someone rocking #18 in the stands (where the WAGs would be seated, most probably). If you do, just know—it’s likely Destiny Jones, supporting her guy as she has for years.
