WHY IT MATTERS
The couple's relationship is a rare example of love transcending divisional rivalry in the NFL, making their story a compelling narrative in the midst of the season.
What happened
Dallas Cowboys cheerleader Abby Summers and Philadelphia Eagles defensive back Cooper DeJean are making their romance work despite being members of opposing franchises. They have shown commitment to each other through the first five weeks of the NFL season.
Abby participated in the halftime show for the Cowboys' loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and then attended the Eagles' loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars in London, wearing Eagles green.
Their relationship will face a real test when the Cowboys and Eagles play each other on Monday Night Football in Philadelphia.
