Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow might be seeing someone and that someone is Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model Olivia Ponton. The two have been seen together in the past, but the most recent instance was this past weekend when they were spotted in New York City while Burrow had been attending Fanatics Fest, according to PEOPLE's Skyler Caruso.
"The Cincinnati Bengals quarterback and Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model were seen walking alongside each other during a night out with friends, as they reportedly hit multiple hot spots in the city.
...In one photo, the couple was seen walking within a small group of people. One of the friends in the circle included Livvy Dunne, who spent time at Fanatics Fest held at the Javits Center in Midtown Manhattan over the weekend (Burrow, too, attended the three-day sports event)."
As mentioned above, this isn't the first time Burrow and Ponton have been spotted with one another in public. Just last month, the two were seen at Miami F1 exiting a car together.

The dating rumors first sparked in December 2024 when Ponton called in a burglary at Burrow's house, where she had been staying while Burrow was on the road for an away game. Ponton's mother was the one who called 911.
Burrow and Ponton have remained silent on what's going on between them. Maybe they're just friends, or maybe romance is in the air. It's not uncommon for athletes and celebrities to want to keep their love life private either so if something is happening, we might not know anything about it anytime soon.
Burrow had previously been dating Olivia Holzmacher, and the two had been together since 2017. There was even talk that the two had gotten engaged in 2023.
After neither was seen together for quite some time, however, people began to speculate that the two had broken up. Holzmacher posted on Instagram in February 2025, "Be intentional, do the hard $hit , && show, don’t tell. I found my deeper well," leading people to believe that was her way of saying her relationship with Burrow had ended.
Burrow has done a good job of keeping his personal life just that, so we'll have to see if anything more comes out about him and Ponton.
