Washington Huskies quarterback Michael Penix Jr. led his team to the national title game this past season, cementing his reputation as one of the top QBs ahead of the 2024 NFL draft.
Penix's girlfriend, Olivia Carter, recently shared snippets on Instagram of the two spending time by the pool.
“Love me some him,” she wrote in her Instagram story.
The couple has spent the last few weeks spoiling each other with regular dates and gifts. Penix sent Carter flowers and a love note at the start of the month. Then, days before Valentine's Day, the couple shared a snap with fans.
On Thursday, Carter was seen rejoicing when the Seattle Sports Commission awarded Penix the Sportsperson of the Year award. He was competing with Seattle Mariners shortstop J.P. Crawford and Seattle Kraken center Matty Beniers, to name a few.
Seattle Sounders goalkeeper Stefan Frei and Penix's teammate Rome Odunze were also frontrunners for the award.
Joe Klatt wants the Miami Dolphins to draft Michael Penix Jr.
Michael Penix has his eyes on the upcoming draft. Fox Sports analyst Joel Klatt has advised the Miami Dolphins to draft Penix as their franchise quarterback. Further, the American college football color commentator urged the franchise not to give Tua Tagovailoa a large deal.
“Giving Tua a huge deal, I think is risky. He has been injury-prone outside of that. A guy that I could see stepping into that offense with that coach, with those weapons and looking like he did in college is Michael Penix. Imagine starting over with a rookie deal at that position,” Klatt said in his first mock draft of the season.
