Dak Prescott and Sarah Jane Ramos’ Relationship Timeline

Just a year after Dak Prescott graduated from Mississippi State University, where he led his team to its first-ever national ranking, he was drafted to the NFL in 2016 as a backup quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys. But, when former quarterback Tony Romo suffered an unexpected injury during preseason of that year, Prescott wound up as the starting quarterback—a role that he blew out of the water by setting several rookie quarterback records and guiding the Cowboys to countless victories. Since then, Prescott has quickly moved up the ranks and is now the highest-paid player in the NFL, a title he secured after signing a four-year, $240 million contract extension for the Cowboys.

Given his accomplishments on the field, Prescott has generated a lot of attention—with many fans probing into his love life. While Prescott primarily keeps his romantic history out of the public eye, in the past year, he and his now-fiancée, Sarah Jane Ramos, have shared snippets of their relationship. Although not much is known about how the quarterback started dating Ramos, they were first romantically linked in September 2023, after she attended one of his games against the New York Giants. Since then, their relationship has quickly progressed, with the duo confirming the birth of their first child, MJ, in March 2024 before announcing their engagement seven months later.
