“They’re Doing The Taylor Swift Method Now”: Justin Herbert and Madison Beer Shock NFL Fans with Intimate Pregame PDA Right on the Sideline

Justin Herbert made his relationship status crystal clear Sunday, planting a kiss on Madison Beer’s lips right there on the sideline before the Chargers faced Washington. For those who don’t know, she showed up with her crew of equally stunning friends, rocking Chargers gear and turning heads before kickoff at SoFi Stadium.

Fans couldn’t stop comparing it to the Taylor Swift-Travis Kelce phenomenon that’s dominated NFL coverage this season since their engagement. The quarterback even greeted Beer’s friends with handshakes before stealing another kiss and jogging off to warm up.

The Chargers beat the Giants 21-18 the previous week, but that game grabbed attention for all the wrong reasons when a fake IG story circulated showing Jaxson Dart supposedly dissing Herbert by posting a photo of his girlfriend. The bogus post had people buzzing about beef between the rookie QB and the veteran signal-caller.

One week later, the couple snatched the spotlight back. But this time it was their choice. The camera caught Herbert, usually locked in and all business pregame, taking time to smooch his girl before hitting the field.

Meanwhile, Beer’s friends were seemingly saving the special moment in the phone album. Beer looked every bit like a proud girlfriend, turning the sidelines into a Hollywood premiere.

The two have been romantically linked since August, first spotted together after Herbert led the Bolts past Kansas City in the season opener. But this was next-level public. There was no hiding or denying; it was just straight-up PDA in front of thousands at the stadium and millions watching at home.

NFL Fans Lose It After Justin Herbert Caught Smooching Madison Beer

Quite frankly, some fans loved it, others thought it was cringeworthy, and most just couldn’t believe what they’d witnessed.

But the Taylor Swift comparisons hit immediately. Swift’s appearances at Chiefs games turned into must-see TV this season. Now Herbert and Beer were getting the same treatment.

Social media dissected every frame of the kiss. “They’re doing the Taylor Swift method now,” one fan posted, calling out the obvious playbook.

“0-2 since they started dating.   😬,” another tweeted.

“Madison and Justin are everything Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wish they could be. Love that she’s on the sidelines cheering him on 😭,” someone else noted.

“I’ve just bet my house on King Herbert winning the MVP after seeing this video,” a fan observed.

“Doesn’t everyone do a pre-game beer?,” another joked.

Beer’s presence added star power to an already high-profile quarterback. She’s a Grammy-nominated artist with millions of followers. Herbert’s one of the league’s top young QBs.

Together, they’re becoming the NFL’s newest power couple. Whether that’s good for Herbert’s focus remains to be seen. But it’s definitely good for headlines.
