The confirmation of their relationship after months of speculation follows when the rookie quarterback teased their hard launch on TikTok. According to a photo per the New York Post, Dart shared a photo of him hugging Ayers and kissing her on his TikTok story earlier this month. The two have been subtly playing into rumors for months after they both “liked” a photo on Instagram from Betr that suggested Ayers was Dart’s girlfriend.

The two were also seen at a Halloween party together — which was added to Ayers’ photo dump on Instagram — as well as she supporting Dart at a Giants’ game against the New England Patriots on Dec. 1, 2025, alongside his parents.

Jaxson Dart is already prepping for next season

This season for the Giants didn’t go as planned with the team not making the playoffs and only having four wins under their belt. However, Dart had a historic rookie season with 2,000+ passing yards, 450+ rushing yards, 15+ passing TDs, 9+ rushing TDs, and fewer than 5 interceptions.

Dart said that there are already planning some offseason workouts in preparation for next season.

“Those have definitely been conversations we’ve been having,” Dart told Giants.com. “Just trying to make sure we formulate a good plan around everybody’s schedule to get together.

“This offseason is very important to us,” he continued. “There’s a lot of uncertainty with what’s going to happen. The certainty we do have is the people coming back. You know, we’ve got to make sure we create the strongest culture and relationships that we can going into this next year.”

It’s not all business as to why Dart wants to get his teammates together months before the 2026-2027 NFL season, but to simply build bonds that can translate to game-winning plays.

“It doesn’t have to do as much with football, but just spending time with each other off the field and then when we get those chances on the field, to create those connections, create the timing and the rhythm of how we work, making sure that everybody’s on the same accord.”
