Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow and model Olivia Ponton appear to be back on after the pair was spotted in Los Angeles together on Thursday night.
Burrow and Ponton — who have been the subject of on-again, off-again dating rumors since December 2024 — attended the Fanatics Flag Football Classic party hosted by retired quarterback Tom Brady at Alba, an Italian restaurant that’s frequented by celebrities.
The Victoria’s Secret model also attended the Fanatics Flag Football Classic draft in Beverly Hills, where Burrow, a co-captain, helped select his team on Wednesday.
Ponton was standing behind Burrow, smiling in the background of an Instagram photo posted by Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin.
Burrow and Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels are co-captains of Wildcats FFC, which will take on Founders FCC, captained by Brady and Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts, in the inaugural Fanatics Flag Football Classic taking place on Saturday.
In addition to the Founders and Wildcats, the third team will be the U.S. men’s national flag football team.
It’s unclear where exactly Burrow and Ponton — who are very private about their personal lives — headed next.
The sighting comes after Burrow, 29, attended the Vanity Fair Oscars party this past Sunday. The QB stirred buzz as he was seen exiting the bash with singer Tate McRae, influencer Alix Earle and model Anastasia Karanikolaou.
Burrow shielded his face while sitting in the front seat of a black SUV, while the trio of women sat in the backseat, as seen in photos taken at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
Burrow was linked to actress Jessica Alba earlier this month when they were spotted together in Las Vegas.
However, the pair was part of a larger group of friends, and Alba and her actor boyfriend, Danny Ramirez, are still romantically involved, according to TMZ.
Burrow and Ponton were first linked in December 2024 when she reported a break-in at his Ohio home, which was a part of a string of robberies targeting high-profile athletes.
Ponton reportedly identified herself as one of Burrow’s employees.
No one was injured, but the home was ransacked, according to a report provided by the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office.
Burrow addressed the incident in a press conference, but he did not name Ponton, who never spoke publicly about it.
Ponton, who is based in New York, never addressed the situation publicly.
