In a heartfelt Instagram post, Arnold shared her exciting news, showcasing her budding relationship with the 18-year-old football star. Lyons, a true freshman, has already made his mark on the field, participating in five games and racking up five catches for 25 yards this season. Though he’s currently sitting third on the tight end depth chart behind Lake McRee and Kade Eldridge, Lyons is proving to be a force to be reckoned with, boasting more receiving yards than Eldridge this year.
Coming from Folsom, California, Lyons was a highly sought-after recruit, earning a four-star rating and ranking as the No. 9 tight end recruit in the nation, according to 247 Sports. With skills like his, it’s no wonder Arnold is smitten!
