Dan Chisena, currently a wide receiver for the Carolina Panthers, has had a sparing season so far. Chisena commenced his NFL career with the Minnesota Vikings in 2020 and joined the Panthers practice squad this season. While his role has been limited in the field, scoring 1 reception for 6 yards so far, he is ready to contribute to the team’s depth. Just call his name, and Chisena is there to make an impact.
Before making it to the NFL, Chisena was part of both the football and track teams at Penn State University. As far as Penn State is concerned, it wouldn’t be wrong to call it the home of perfect love stories. And in this home resides the story of the Panthers’ WR when he first met his girlfriend, now wife, Brittany Chisena.

Brittany calls herself the biggest fan of the number 88, and no doubt, indeed, she is. The story of the photographer wife and WR husband began during their college days. Brittany met Dan when he was on the track team at the university, and it was during this time that she captured his heart.
After graduating from PSU, Brittany pursued a master’s in MS Integrated Marketing Communications. While working as a brand marketing specialist at Red Bull, she continued to keep up with photography, a passion she couldn’t let go of, even with her busy job. Although she may be done with her brand marketing gig, photography still remains her thing.
