Kansas City Chiefs тιԍнт end Jared Wiley has announced he has got engaged to his girlfriend Estelle Czech.
The 24-year-old Wiley is an understudy to Travis Kelce, whose own relationship with Taylor Swift has been subject to ongoing engagement rumors since the couple went public back in September 2023.
Wiley shared an array of pictures of his proposal to Czech on social media, to which he captioned: ‘Can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with you.’
And his post has been liked by none other than Kelce himself.
Czech is a pro softball player who competes for the Texas Longhorns and used to play for NC State. She shared a picture of her engagement ring on her social media with the caption: ‘Forever and ever.’
Wiley, meanwhile, had a difficult 2024 campaign that ended back in November when he tore his ACL in practice in what Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said was a ‘freak injury’.

Up to then, he had spent most of his time on special teams for the Chiefs and had recorded one reception for seven yards in his rookie year.
‘Wiley at practice tore his ACL, non-contact, and it’s one of those freak things,’ Reid explained. ‘So he’ll go through that whole process.’
Before that, Wiley shocked fans by revealed he had never heard a Taylor Swift song before he found out he would be backing up her boyfriend on the Chiefs roster.
‘I’m not going to sit here and lie,’ he said. ‘I’ve probably never heard one of her songs or anything like that, but I think it’s the coolest thing ever that she’s at the game. She attracts more fans and more publicity to the team.’
Kelce, meanwhile, returned to the spotlight with a bang last week by appearing in Philadelphia alongside Swift for Mother’s Day last Sunday.
It had been months since the high-profile couple were spotted together, with Kelce only being seen by himself since the Super Bowl back in February.
He followed his Mother’s Day efforts with an appearance in New York on Monday night for an Amazon Prime event at the prestigious Beacon Theater in Manhattan. He was joined by his older brother, Jason.
Kelce was not, however, impressed with the NFL schedule that dropped in the middle of last week – he was unhappy that he, Wiley and his team start the season in Sao Paulo, Brazil against Los Angeles Chargers.

‘There’s just something about getting close to the equator, I don’t want to put on football uniform,’ Kelce, 35, said.
‘I’ve been in Jacksonville in September, that’s f***ing miserable.
‘Sao Paulo, is that by the water? I’d rather it be dry than humid, I’m a sweaty guy. If it is humid, I am going to be miserable. But I am going to find a way to get a win.’
The Chiefs will be in Brazil on September 5 for that game against their divisional rival in a schedule that will also see them play on Thanksgiving and Christmas Day.
