Eagles’ Cooper DeJean Opens Up About Secret Romance with Cowboys Cheerleader — And the Shocking NFL Twist They Dodged

Cooper DeJean, the Eagles’ cornerback, found himself in an unexpectedly blush-worthy moment when a fan threw out the question: Is dating Abby Summers, a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader, a total conflict of interest? Considering the fierce rivalry between the Eagles and Cowboys, it’s a fair inquiry. On last Thursday’s “Exciting Mics” podcast, DeJean opened up about the sparks that flew between him and Summers, tracing their story back to a chance meeting in Florida during the national championship game, followed by some low-key hangouts at the Super Bowl. The whole situation could’ve spelled trouble amidst that bitter NFC East nerddom — but DeJean shrugged it off, pointing out that since neither of them actually plays football, no insider intel is being swapped. Meanwhile, Texans safety Reed Blankenship, co-hosting the podcast, couldn’t hide his amusement — calling the whole thing “juicy.” Their burgeoning romance, which went public after the Kentucky Derby reveal, continues to draw attention as they’ve been spotted together at a NASCAR race and more. And if that wasn’t enough intrigue, DeJean was recently linked to WWE’s Nikki Bella — talk about a tangled web!

Eagles cornerback Cooper DeJean was blushing when a fan asked him if it’s a conflict of interest that he’s in a relationship with Abby Summers, a cheerleader for the Dallas Cowboys.

During Thursday’s installment of the “Exciting Mics” podcast, DeJean pulled back the curtain on their relationship and shared how they met after the pair hard launched at the Kentucky Derby last month

“That seems like it could be messy,” the fan added, referring to the Eagles-Cowboys bitter NFC East rivalry.

“I dont really think it’s a conflict of interest,” DeJean said. “I mean, it’s not like we both play football. We don’t play football. She’s a cheerleader. There is going to be no insider information given either way.”
