New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart's girlfriend, Marissa Ayers, has been getting some extra attention lately, especially with Dart being one of the most promising faces in the Giants' camp for a long time. But, she's actually been making a name for herself long before she became a regular around the NFL.

The couple first became the center of dating talk in October 2025 after attending the same Halloween party. Things got a little more serious in December, when Ayers was spotted at Dart's game against the New England Patriots and photographed with his mom, Kara Dart.

They eventually stopped keeping fans guessing. Ayers made their relationship Instagram official in January 2026 with a series of photos featuring the couple, and they followed that up with a red carpet debut at the 2026 NFL Honors.

She gained lots of attention a couple of months later while working at the Katie Taylor-Amanda Serrano fight at Madison Square Garden. The bout streamed on Netflix and quickly became a major moment for women's boxing.

"I was just on Netflix," she said in a TikTok at the time. "I can't even believe that. Part of history for women's boxing. It was so cool. The vibes, the energy, it was so loud. It was so much fun."

In June 2026, she added another accomplishment to the list when she walked in Miami Swim Week. Dart was in the front row cheering her on, and Ayers called the experience a "dream come true" in an Instagram post.

After months of speculation, Ayers confirmed that they were in a romantic relationship on Instagram in January 2026. Their relationship has continued to blossom since then.
