Cincinnati Bengals backup quarterback Jake Browning has been dating his college sweetheart, Stephanie Niles, for seven years.
The smitten couple shared a sweet moment after Browning led his team to a 31-27 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, September 14, 2026.
The former Washington Huskies star stepped into the field after star starter Joe Burrow suffered a toe injury during the Week 2 game. Burrow is set to miss the next three games due to the injury.
Though Browning was thrust into the action on short notice, he passed for 241 yards, with two touchdowns, but also had three interceptions. He scored a game-winning touchdown on a one-yard run with just 18 seconds remaining.
Following the Bengals’ 2-0 victory, Browning spotted his lady love in the crowd at Paycor Stadium. He walked over, held her hand, and then headed to the locker room.
Later, Stephanie took to social media and celebrated the big victory and gushed about Jake spotting her in the crowd for the first time.
She shared a video in which she was seen waving her arms from the first row. “That’s the first time he has ever looked at me,” she said in the camera. And she was elated!
