Kansas State Wildcats running back DJ Giddens stunned fans and teammates alike with a surprise engagement announcement on social media. Giddens, who is also drawing serious NFL Draft buzz after a breakout 2024 season, posted a photo of the sunset proposal on Instagram with the caption, “Found my forever teammate.” The post racked up thousands of likes within hours, with fellow athletes and Wildcats alumni sending their congratulations. While the engagement brought joy to many, it also raises questions about how it may impact his draft preparation. Sources close to Giddens say he’s “fully locked in” on training, but balancing a public engagement with the intense scrutiny of NFL scouts could prove challenging. Some fans wonder if the timing — just months before the draft — was strategic or a potential distraction. Wildcats Head Coach Chris Klieman voiced his support, saying, “DJ is a leader both on and off the field. We’re proud of him.” With a projected 3rd-round grade, Giddens is one of the top RB prospects in the Big 12. Now, he’s not just preparing for Sundays — he’s preparing for a wedding, too.
