Sydney Sweeney has sparked fresh dating buzz after an NFL star slid into her mentions with a cheeky, flirty reply.

The 28-year-old actress recently opened up about her ideal man in Cosmopolitan, describing him as “athletic, outgoing and funny.”

“I’m a sporty girl,” she  said, adding that she wants a partner who can climb mountains, go skydiving and loves his family.

Notably, those comments didn’t go unnoticed. 

When Cosmopolitan shared the quote on social media, Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua wasted no time chiming in. 

Keeping it short and suggestive, the 24-year-old NFL star replied: “Love skydiving.” 

Fans were quick to clock the exchange, with many wondering whether this could be the start of a surprising Hollywood–sports crossover.

Sydney, who called off her engagement to longtime partner Jonathan Davino last year, has been candid about why she keeps her love life out of the spotlight. 

She said she wanted to protect parts of her life from public scrutiny while still figuring things out in her 20s, after spending seven and a half years in a relationship.

The Euphoria actress now wants to enjoy life, including love on her own terms, having focused relentlessly on her career for years.

Still, she’s clear about one thing that she doesn’t need a man. 

Calling herself “a boss”, The Housemaid actress said she’s confident, successful and surrounded by strong women, adding that it takes “a very specific person” to stand beside her.
