Less than a week after Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman received his Super Bowl LVIII championship ring, he gave a different kind of ring to someone he loves.

Hardman popped the question to girlfriend Chariah Gordon on Thursday, and she said yes.

We know this because Hardman wore a shirt that said, “She Said Yes” in the video. Hardman wrote, “Say hello to the Future Mr. & Mrs. Hardman” when he shared the short film of the proposal.

Here’s a closer look at the engagement ring.

Hardman, who caught the game-winning touchdown in the Chiefs’ 25-22 victory over the 49ers in Super Bowl LVIII, received congratulations from current and former teammates.

“Had a gangsta eyes watering!! Congrats family! Welcome to the team!,” wrote running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire.

“Congrats fam,” wide receiver Xavier Worthy wrote.

Receiver Skyy Moore responded: “Congrats my dawg”

“Congrats Twin,” wrote receiver Justin Ross.

Browns safety Juan Thornhill wrote: “Congrats to the both of you”

Receiver Byron Pringle wrote: “Dawgy.”
