Commanders' Jeremy Reaves proposes to girlfriend after team ...

Washington Commanders safety Jeremy Reaves celebrated his team's win against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday by dropping to one knee and asking his longtime girlfriend a very important question.

Video circulating on social media shows Reaves on one knee at Northwest Stadium, asking an emotional Mikaela Worley to marry him. The couple then embrace and Reaves slips the ring on her finger as they pose for pictures to commemorate the moment.

Reaves, 28, proposed to Worley after the Commanders clinched a 30-24 win against the Falcons in a Sunday night game, securing their spot in the playoffs.

"I hate losing, so there’s no way I could have done that in the right spirit after a loss," Reaves told The Associated Press. "That thing was burning a hole in my pocket."

Reaves gave Worley's family a heads up ahead of the proposal, and said, "If we win this game, it's destiny," according to the outlet.

"She’s earned it. I can’t say enough about her," Reaves told the outlet. "When I was at my lowest last year, she was there to pick me up everyday. She showed up. That’s my best friend. Been my best friend since high school."

Following the proposal, Reaves posted to X that he's glad he was able to share the special moment with his fans.

Reaves, a Florida native, joined the Commanders in 2019. In 2023, he had surgery to repair a partially torn ACL, according to The Associated Press.

"I was going through the worst last year coming off an ACL (tear). Couldn’t do anything, couldn’t be my own man and she was the crutch there when I couldn’t do it myself," Reaves told the outlet.
