NFL MVP Josh Allen Risks Injury to Proudly Wear Wedding Ring on Field

In a surprising move, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, 29, has been wearing his wedding ring during NFL games this season, despite the serious risk of ring avulsion injuries. Allen and actress Hailee Steinfeld, 28, tied the knot in a romantic Santa Barbara, California ceremony on May 31, 2025, which the NFL MVP later described as "the best night of my life."

The couple had mostly kept their relationship private prior to their engagement in November 2024. However, since the wedding, Allen has been openly flaunting his new marital status, even showing off his ring to reporters at Bills training camp in June. "Got some hardware now. So, good to go," he told the Associated Press at the time.

Steinfeld, known for her role in the Sinners TV series, has also shared details about the couple's special wedding weekend, which included speeches from their close friends and Bills teammates. "It felt like love was running through the veins of every tree at our gorgeous venue in Santa Barbara," she wrote in her Beau Society newsletter.

As the Bills start the 2025 season with a 4-1 record, Allen's decision to wear his wedding ring during games has drawn attention, as it puts him at risk of a serious finger injury called ring avulsion. However, the quarterback appears undeterred, determined to proudly display his marital status on the field.
