He and Cavinder have been together since 2023 when they went public with their relationship.
The couple then got engaged in April when the 26-year-old tight end proposed to the 24-year-old former college hoops star.

While exciting for the soon-to-be wedded couple, many fans were shocked to see Ferguson's extension come in the midst of Dallas' contract lull with superstar edge rusher Micah Parsons.
Parsons is entering the final year of his rookie contract and has seen the likes of TJ Watt, Maxx Crosby and Myles Garrett get paid big money, yet is still awaiting an agreement for himself.
While fans continue waiting for Parsons' contract, Ferguson's was still well earned as he has been a top target for quarterback Dak Prescott the past two seasons.

Ferguson broke out in 2023-24, his second NFL season, as he was targeted 102 times en route to making 71 catches for 761 yards, five touchdowns and earning a Pro Bowl selection.
Last season was a bit quieter for Ferguson as he tallied just 59 catches, 494 yards and no touchdowns, albeit he played in three fewer games.
Ferguson is, of course, not the only athlete in his relationship as Cavinder played five seasons of college basketball, three at Fresno State and two at Miami.

Cavinder was the Mountain West Conference Player of the Year in 2020-21, a three-time All-MWC and two-time All-ACC honoree.
Her and her sister have amassed nearly 5 million followers on their joint TikTok account.

Dez Bryant, Roc Nation take issue with Jerry Jones
The recent Jerry Jones word potato salad regarding his direct negotiations with linebacker Micah Parsons included a gratuitous slap at former Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant and his agent, Jay-Z. Via Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, Jones had this to say about Bryant and Jay-Z: '[W]hen we have a problem with the player, the agent is nowhere to be found. Jay-Z said that Dez would make all meetings. Jay-Z and I negotiated the contract, spent hours. He said, 'Anybody in my organization is on time.' He said, 'My office used to be on the street corner, and I've always been early. So, they will be on time.' And what did I say? I said, 'I'm going to call you [when I have a problem].' He quit taking my call.' Bryant responded on Twitter, with an all-caps warning for Jerry. (We've edited it, so that we're not screaming at your eyeballs.) "Jerry Jones," Bryant said, "I don't think it's smart to mention my name. I kept quiet about a lot of unfair shit. On some G shit. We can have story time if that's what we are doing." Jay-Z's sports agency, Roc Nation, issued a separate statement that takes issue with the claim that Jay-Z stopped taking Jerry's calls. (Again, we've edited it from the all-caps tweet.) "In 2015, at the 21 Club, on a napkin, Jerry Jones, Juan Perez, Shawn 'Jay-Z' Carter, and Stephen Jones negotiated a five-year, $70 million deal, which included a $45 million guarantee and a $20 million signing bonus for Dez Bryant. At the time, it was the second-largest contract for a wide receiver in NFL history. "The claim that Mr. Carter or Roc Nation representatives did not return a call from Jerry Jones is not only a false statement, but it's also a comical one." Setting aside the question of how Jay-Z was directly negotiating NFL contracts without being licensed by the NFLPA to do so, the currently salient point is this. Jerry Jones, in trying to put out the fire arising from Parsons requesting a trade, may have accidentally turned the hose on a couple of hornets' nests. We'll sit back and wait to see if he gets stung.

Philadelphia Eagles Gain Favorable Odds to Land Micah Parsons
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Currently, the NFC East has plenty of drama, and the Philadelphia Eagles can sit back and watch it all unfold, knowing they don't have anything to worry about at the moment. Or, perhaps they could get involved. As the Dallas Cowboys recently learned that Micah Parsons wants to be traded, FOX Sports NFL recently dug up some odds via DraftKings to see who is favored to land Parsons for the 2025 NFL season and beyond. The Eagles and the Patriots have the highest odds for any team not named the Cowboys. A Look at the Odds Cowboys -300 Eagles +1000 Patriots +1000 Chargers +1500 Cardinals +1600 49ers +1600 Rams +1800 Panthers +2200 Jets +2500 Raiders +2500 Micah Parsons will play for the _______ in 2025? 🤔 (odds via @DKSportsbook) — FOX Sports: NFL (@NFLonFOX) August 1, 2025 The Cowboys remain the favorites to keep Parsons because, despite the drama, they hold the leverage. Parsons is under contract for the 2025 NFL season, and the Cowboys aren't going to cut his loose without getting value for him. The team has made it clear they don't want to trade him away, and even if they did consider making such a move, it would take a huge haul in order for Dallas to pull the trigger. Micah Parsons #11 of the Dallas Cowboys celebrates a sack of Jalen Hurts #1 of the Philadelphia Eagles at AT&T Stadium on September 27, 2021 in Arlington, Texas. Micah Parsons #11 of the Dallas Cowboys celebrates a sack of Jalen Hurts #1 of the Philadelphia Eagles at AT&T Stadium on September 27, 2021 in Arlington, Eagles tend to find themselves favored for available stars more often than not, due to Howie Roseman's aggressiveness in the front office. And when it comes to pass rushers, the Eagles are always intrigued. But it's hard to imagine the Eagles would be willing to cough up a ton of assets and be willing to offer Parsons game-changing money. He's worth a major extension, but the Eagles' ability to win a Super Bowl last season doesn't make them desperate for such a franchise-altering move. It's also tough to picture the Cowboys sending one of their most important players of the past few seasons to a division rival like the Eagles. The entire division saw how letting Saquon Barkley walk to the Eagles turned out for the New York Giants. The Cowboys certainly don't want to find themselves in that position. Parsons entered the NFL as the 12th overall pick out of Penn State in 2021. He was the Defensive Rookie of the Year and earned a Pro Bowl nod in his first season. Over four years, Parsons was named a Pro Bowler each time. He was also voted as an All-Pro three times, missing the mark last year, as he dealt with injuries. Parsons hits the trade block with 256 tackles and 52.5 sacks. For more Philadelphia Eagles and NFL news, head over to Newsweek Sports.

Eagles star WR is dealing with a hamstring injury ahead of Week 1 of preseason
A.J. Brown is dealing with a hamstring injury that could cause the All-Pro wide receiver to miss some time at training camp AJ Brown will miss practice with a hamstring injury report:WILL NOT PRACTICEZack Baun - backAJ Brown - hamstringLewis Cine - hamstringMontrell Johnson - hamstringTerrace Marshall - kneeMac McWilliams - quadBen VanSumeren - ankle Philadelphia hit the practice field for Day 8 of training camp and proceeded to begin workouts without star wide receiver A.J. Brown, who exited Friday's session with a hamstring injury. Key stars DeVonta Smith, Nolan Smith, and Andrew Mukuba return to limited participation. Mukuba (shoulder) was upgraded as a limited participant on Friday after missing the three previous practices. The rookie was back in full gear and should do more than participate in individual drills. Fullback Ben VanSumeren didn't practice because of the ankle injury he suffered on Thursday. Cornerback Mac McWilliams was also out with a quadriceps strain, along with linebacker Zack Baun (back), receiver Terrace Marshall (knee), and E.J. Jenkins (hamstring). Philadelphia will practice on Monday and Tuesday, before a Wednesday walkthrough that'll proceed Thursday's preseason opener against the Bengals.
