Braden Mann’s NFL journey has been a roller coaster. Drafted by the New York Jets in 2020, Mann came into the league with a lot of expectations as a punter. He even made a crucial tackle that helped the Jets win 23–20 against the Los Angeles Rams. But things got shaky when he landed on injured reserve in 2021, and his journey has been inconsistent since then. Despite the struggles, he’s had someone special by his side, always there to cheer him on and help him push through the tough times.

That special someone by Braden’s side is his best friend in the world, Kylie, whom he married on March 18, 2023. They met at Texas A&M when Kylie was a sophomore, and Braden was a junior. Their friends Shelby and Cale secretly set them up, and after their introduction, they had cute dates on Kyle Field. Braden even made his first-ever trip to the library just for her, something he’d never done before meeting Kylie.

The couple spent most of their relationship long-distance. After they met, Kylie went for a summer internship in Ohio while Braden stayed in College Station. For three years, they made it work by traveling to each other. When Braden finally got the courage to propose, Kylie didn’t hesitate to say yes. They exchanged vows at D’Vine Grace Vineyard, surrounded by friends and family.

A post shared by Braden Mann (@super_mann34)

Anyone could see they were the happiest couple around, and why not? Marrying someone who’s been with you through thick and thin is a true blessing. Braden shared a picture of them kissing with the caption, “3/18/2023 I married my best friend in the world.” Fans flooded the post with comments like, “As it should be. Congratulations 🎉,” “🙌❤️ Goals,” and “Congrats!🍾.” Even Kylie joined in, commenting, “🤍🤍🤍 best day ever!” expressing her joy.

Since they met at university, Kylie has been Braden’s biggest fan. She even stayed through an entire football game for the first time just to watch him play. Kylie never hesitates to show her support and often shares glimpses of their life on social media.

Kylie’s always sharing pictures of their anniversary, vacations, and parties, especially Braden on the field, from his time with the Jets to now with the Eagles. Last year, she posted a photo with the caption, “For Christmas, Santa brought an EAGLES WIN,” to cheer him up for his future games. 

Her social media shows off her cheerful and bubbly personality. And just like her, Braden is always right there with her in everything she wants to do. They love traveling together, throwing parties, and even hosted a Christmas party in December 2023. Braden often expresses how much they love doing things together and they’re happiest just having each other. 

Even if Braden’s career has just started, he will go through lots of rollercoasters. On this, sure, his wife will always be there for him and it feels lovely to watch the couple enjoying their married life.
