For weeks, speculation has been swirling about a potential romance between a reporter and New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones following their lighthearted 1-on-1 interview during the team’s preseason camp. In response to the rumors, Adams directly addressed the chatter during an interview with New York offensive lineman Jermaine Eluemunor, where she appeared visibly amused by the notion of her involvement with Jones.
Throughout the conversation, both Adams and Eluemunor shared laughs, with Adams appearing flustered at the mention of Jones. “You’ve got to protect your boy—my boy, as the internet thinks, my boy,” Adams remarked, clearly uncomfortable. “I really don’t want to talk about this… oh God.”
The dating rumors between Jones and Adams started circulating after their solo interview. This week, Adams publicly referenced the gossip, humorously referring to the Giants quarterback as “my boy.” Despite the speculation, both Jones and Adams are reportedly linked to other romantic partners, refuting the online buzz.
“I know what you’re getting at,” Eluemunor responded to Adams’ playful comments. Adams, attempting to shift the focus, quipped, “A girl can’t win. I’m just trying to hype up your boy.” Eluemunor jokingly replied, “Daniel’s a great-looking guy!”
The conversation then took a light detour, with Adams asking Eluemunor, a confidant of Jones, whether the quarterback planned to keep his newly grown beard. Eluemunor commented on Jones’ facial hair, saying, “I’ve been telling him to keep the beard. My beard doesn’t compare to his. His is… voluptuous.”
Adams laughed at the unusual description before refocusing the discussion on the Giants’ upcoming matchup with the Vikings. As the interview concluded, Adams left Eluemunor with a final remark. “I’m counting on you, go protect my boyfriend,” she joked, to which Eluemunor confidently replied, “100 percent!”
Jones and Adams have tried to maintain their privacy despite the attention, with Adams previously being linked to NFL tight end C.J. Uzomah and reporter Shams Charania. Jones, meanwhile, is reportedly in a relationship with former Duke lacrosse player Ella Bonafede, whom he’s been dating since their time at Duke University.
