NFL players are celebrities in addition to being superstar athletes. They are highly-recognized public figures that receive the same amount, if not more, of media time than famous people in other fields. Their fame and wealth demands a ton of attention and opens doors for them to be included in the most elite and exclusive circles with other celebrities.
The celebrity status of NFL players often leads them to form relationships with other famous people, including romantic ones. While many of them end up marrying other notable public figures, others go in the complete opposite direction.
Sometimes NFL players will remain committed to the same person they were in a relationship with prior to becoming famous. Rather than moving on to someone new within one of the most exclusive celebrity circles they now belong to. Here are three NFL quarterbacks who married their high school sweethearts.
#1 - Patrick Mahomes and Brittany Matthews
Patrick Mahomes and Brittany Matthews met when they were both attending the same high school in Texas. They were both outstanding athletes and continudo to do so in college. Mahomes played football and baseball at Texas Tech while Matthews played soccer at Texas.
