NFL star Puka Nacua flirts with Sydney Sweeney

Puka Nacua responded to Sydney Sweeney's description of her ideal partner as athletic and outgoing, sparking notable reactions on social media platforms.

  • On Friday, Puka Nacua, the 24-year-old Los Angeles Rams wide receiver, sent a flirty reply on X to a Complex post about Sydney Sweeney, writing `Love skydiving.` in response to a Cosmopolitan tweet.
  • Sydney Sweeney, 28-year-old actress, told Cosmopolitan magazine she wants an "athletic and outgoing and funny" partner who can `go skydiving` with her and said she `doesn't need a man` after calling off her engagement to Jonathan Davino last year.
  • Social media users split between joking they must fight Puka Nacua and praising his boldness after he missed his first Super Bowl opportunity.
  • The exchange amplified attention on both figures, boosting online visibility for Nacua and Sweeney, who was promoting the film "The Housemaid" at the time.
  • Viewed more broadly, Sweeney's rising profile helps explain why her dating comments attract broad interest online, and Nacua's Rams standing turned his reply into a notable crossover.
