Hayden has made quite the name for himself in the big world of sports. He is a former American football cornerback. He started off his football career playing ball for the Illinois Fighting Illini football team. Throughout a nearly decade-long career, he has played for the Atlanta Falcons and Chicago Bears, for which he repped the #24 jersey.

He gained even more fame when he started dating Hollywood hot shot Taraji P. Henson back in 2015. The two had been introduced through Henson’s makeup artist, and were instantly attached at the hip. Just three years later, they got engaged on May 13, 2018.

Taraji P. Henson should already be a fairly familiar face, but just in case you need a quick refresher, the 47-year-old actress has starred in a number of hit films and TV shows, such as Hidden Figures, Empire, and What Men Want.
