Christian McCaffrey’s girlfriend Olivia Culpo understood better than most what was on the line at Sunday’s NFC Title Game showdown between the San Francisco 49ers and Philadelphia Eagles.
Culpo was there with McCaffrey every step of the way as he toiled away with the perpetually inept Carolina Panthers.
She also watched him try to overcome one injury after another throughout his career, even when some suspected their fun times together were contributing to his ailments.
Because of all that, nobody was cheering for McCaffrey louder this weekend as he tried his best to carry the Niners into the Super Bowl.
When San Francisco quarterback Brock Purdy got hurt early in the outing, it was McCaffrey who gave his squad fresh life and broke three tackles en route to a 23-yard touchdown run.
Culpo absolutely loved it.
Over the course of the game, Culpo’s many photos from the match-up quickly went viral.
Obviously Culpo is no stranger to making headlines. Between her wild outfits at Niners games, constant PDA with McCaffrey (sometimes at her own peril) and her nonstop party pictures – she is a permanent fixture in the news cycle.

While Culpo’s photos don’t do the sort of crazy engagement numbers Kliff Kingsbury’s girlfriend’s posts or Dak Prescott’s girlfriend’s posts do, she also isn’t too far off.
By any objective measure, she is definitely one of the most loyal and devoted partners in the NFL today.

Time will tell if McCaffrey and Culpo will get to celebrate their 2022-23 NFL season in the way they clearly want to, but even if they don’t, it won’t be for a lack of effort on the parts of anyone involved.
