Andy Dalton is no short of blessed when it comes to his love life. The NFL quarterback has a loving wife and three children to make the rough parts of his life easier. But who is the lady who brightens Dalton’s days when times are rough for his team and he is having a rough season?
Dalton married the love of his life back in 2011 when he must have been around 23 years old and it may have eased him into the rough side of the NFL that athletes seem to face. And his partner has stayed with him through this all.

Jordan Dalton is the person that Andy wrote his wedding vows about. The two met when they became young adults. This happened on a lucky day in the Texas Christian University, better recognized as the TCU. The couple happened to be classmates at the time.
Both of them were marketing majors at the Uni and met in their senior year at college. Had it not been for the same course or the same college, they might have missed the perfect opportunity to find a loving partner to grow old with.

JJ, as Andy calls his wife, revealed in an interview back in 2017 that she had never anticipated she would become the wife of an NFL quarterback. She always imagined herself in business suits, taking care of the business world. Yet here she is, happy living a married life and teaching pilates in yoga pants. While this seems like the kind of life that she likes for herself, Jordan and Andy’s world doesn’t stop here.

Jordan and Andy to the rescue
The couple tied the knot within a year after meeting and soon after moved to Cincinnati. However, even before Andy Dalton had a chance to descend onto the gridiron to put on a show for the Cincinnati Bengals, he and his wife had started a foundation to help those in need of their help. In 2011, they gave way to the Andy and Jordan Dalton Foundation. This is when they started helping seriously sick and differently abled children and their families. By 2018, they were able to help more than 200 families with a grant worth $500,000.

Every year, the couple even hosts a date night for other parents. They let them go out together for some romantic time together while Andy and Jordan take care of the younglings. Sharing joy with others is what life seems to be all about for the Daltons. This is a beautiful lesson that their three kids will be learning early in life. When Jordan is not busy handling this foundation with her husband, she is supporting him from the sides during rough game seasons.
So far, things are not looking good at all for the Carolina Panthers, but at least the quarterback has his person to turn to for comfort when he is not grinding on the field.
