Kelly Stafford, wife of Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford, caused a stir last week when she revealed a shocking revelation about her past. In an effort to make her now-husband jealous, Kelly admitted to dating his backup quarterback while they were both at the University of Georgia.
“I dated the backup to p— him off, which worked — he was the bad boy too,” Kelly said. “Matthew’s so sweet and a Southern gentleman and all that stuff. And the backup was the complete opposite, and it upset him.”
The news quickly spread like wildfire, with many speculating on which quarterback Kelly had dated. While she did not reveal the name, internet sleuths pointed to Joe Cox, who was the only quarterback to be at Georgia during all three of Matthew Stafford’s seasons.
The revelation led to a media storm against Cox and his family, prompting Kelly to issue an apology. She expressed her admiration for the couple and emphasized that they had no involvement in her past actions.
Despite the drama, the Staffords have built a strong relationship over the years. They got married in 2015 and have four daughters together, with their two oldest being twins.
The unexpected confession from Kelly Stafford has certainly sparked conversations and raised eyebrows, shedding light on the intriguing dynamics of relationships in the world of sports.
