There are several NFL players who made serious moves in their personal lives in the off-season. The biggest engagement news of the year, for example, came just weeks before the very first kickoff of the season. Travis Kelce isn’t the only man who changed things up, though. These NFL superstars got married while their teams were taking a break from the gridiron.

In April, Hurts said that everyone could now call Burrows his wife during an interview.
While the pair’s official wedding ceremony was a private, intimate affair, the duo celebrated with a large party in June. According to Brides, the couple rented out the Four Seasons in Napa Valley and hosted an entire wedding weekend. Guests were treated to a poolside dinner. Later in the weekend, they enjoyed a chic barn party. Huts and Burrows exchanged vows in front of a fountain.
