NFL superstar Jake Ferguson jokes he still hasn't washed his hands after meeting Taylor Swift
Ferguson, the fiancée of Miami women's basketball star Haley Cavinder, revealed that he recently met pop icon Taylor Swift at a concert earlier in the summer.
Speaking to 'The Sweet Spot' on Sportsradio 96.7FM/1310 The Ticket in Texas, Ferguson revealed that he bumped into the 'Cruel Summer' star in Nashville.
He was attending 'Tight End University' - the brainchild of Swift's boyfriend Travis Kelce and 49ers tight end George Kittle.
Swift shocked everyone in the crowd by getting on stage at what was initially billed as a Kane Brown concert and performing.
'I shook her hand,' Ferguson revealed. 'I still haven't washed my hand.'
He continued: 'She's so normal. She met my fiancée, my fiancée was like, 'She's so nice!' Not that I was expecting anything different, but like, she knew football.
'She was talking like, 'We [the Chiefs] got a big game at Cowboys this year!'
Swift is very right about that. The Chiefs will be traveling down to Texas to play the Cowboys in a Thanksgiving Day matchup.
Ferguson - who is in Oxnard, California for training camp - just recently inked a four-year, $52million contract extension.
He'll be hoping the Cowboys find a way to improve upon their poor 2024 season - when an injury to quarterback Dak Prescott led to a 7-10 finish and missing the playoffs.

Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway filming Devil Wears Prada sequel minutes from NYC shooting
Hollywood stars Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep, and Stanley Tucci were filming scenes for the Devil wears Prada sequel just a couple of blocks away and three hours before the mass shooting in New York City Hollywood icons Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway had been filming the sequel to the Devil Wears Prada just three hours before the New York City mass shooting which claimed the lives of four innocent people. Streep and Hathaway were just a mere 15-minute walk away from where the tragedies took place. A man with a rifle killed an off-duty police officer and three other people before taking his own life on Monday. The gunman - named in a press conference as Shane Tamura - struck at an office block in Manhattan, New York City, home to large companies such as banks and the National Football League. Law enforcement officials are currently working to unravel what took place and why this location may have been targeted in the Big Apple. The horrific shooting took place just a couple of blocks away from where Streep and Hathaway have been filming the sequel to the 2006 hit blockbuster. The Hollywood duo, along with fellow acting legend Stanley Tucci, filmed scenes at 1221 Avenue of the Americas which is only a short 15-minute walk from the scene of the tragedy. The three stars were filming scenes just three hours before the shooting took place. The city had recently announced it was on pace to have its fewest people hurt by gunfire than any year in recent decades. However, it is now mourning those killed, including "hero brother" police officer Didarul Islam. Colleagues paid tribute to the 36-year-old man, whose wife is pregnant with their third child, at a press conference last night. Tamura exited a double parked BMW with an M4 rifle and then walked toward the building on Monday evening, according to surveillance video. He quickly opened fire on the NYPD officer as he entered the building before shooting a woman who tried to take cover, police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said at a news conference on Monday night. He then started "spraying" the lobby with gunfire. The man went to the elevator bank and shot a security guard who was taking cover behind a security desk and also another man in the lobby, Ms Tisch said. The man took the lift to the 33rd floor to a real estate management company and one person was shot and killed on that floor. He then walked down a hallway and shot himself, she said. The shooting took place at 345 Park Avenue, a commercial office building in a busy area of midtown that is just a short walk north from Grand Central Terminal and about a block east of St. Patrick's Cathedral. The building's tenants include the NFL and Rudin Management, as well as finance companies KPMG and Blackstone. It also includes the consulate general of Ireland.

Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson cozy up on The Naked Gun red carpet in New York City amid romance rumors
LIAM Neeson and Pamela Anderson have been seen cozying up to one another on the Naked Gun red carpet amid rampant romance rumors. Rumors are rife that the 73-year-old Oscar-nominated star of Schindler's List from Northern Ireland, and the 58-year-old former Baywatch babe are romantically involved. 6 6 The glamorous pair star in the new Naked Gun movie together, with Liam recently saying about Pamela: 'I'm madly in love with her.' And last night in New York, the pair stepped out for the premiere of the hit flick, which first hit screens in 1988, starring Leslie Nielsen. Held at the School for the Visual Arts theatre in the Big Apple, the leading actor and actress gazed at one another while standing together at the glitzy event. Pamela looked chic in a midnight blue gown that was modestly cut and sailed all the way down to the ground. She wore her blond locks in a sleek style and finished off her old Hollywood look with some lace gloves on her hands. Meanwhile, Liam wore a gray suit and white shirt, complete with a black belt and matching shoes. Looking dapper and smart, Liam gazed down as Pamela as the pair smiled sweetly at one another. The Naked Gun duo were even joined on the red carpet by their children. Pamela has two sons, Brandon, 29, and Dylan, 27, with her ex-husband Tommy Lee. Meanwhile, Liam has two sons, Micheál, 29, and Daniel, 28, with his late wife, actress Natasha Richardson, who sadly died in 2009. The couple, along with each of their two sons, were seen standing with one another as they all smiled. Reacting to the red carpet snaps and videos circulating social media, one person said on X, "I'm just obsessed with Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson!" Another gushed, "They are so cute. Hope they get together!" "I hope they fall for each other. They are two nice people who deserve a great love story," penned a third. I think I have a friend for ever in Liam and we definitely have a connection that is very sincere, very loving, and he's a good guy. Pamela Anderson on her bond with Liam Neeson "They would make a nice couple," swooned a fourth. A fifth then said, "They have a lot of chemistry." "They really nailed it with this pairing, damn," added a sixth, speaking of the Naked Gun movie casting. While a seventh person added, "I saw Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson interviewing each other and they are 100% in love,,, or if not then he's definitely in love with her." Earlier during the press tour for the comedy flick, the actress took snaps of the smartly suited actor's crotch, while he pretended to photograph her as she giggled on the floor. The off-screen chemistry went further with Liam planting a gentle kiss on the side of Pamela's head as he held her waist. Liam also joked that his favourite part of making The Naked Gun, which opens on August 1, was 'the sex scenes', which the pair were given an intimacy co-ordinator for. Liam added: 'I'd never had one before. But she was in the background. There was no kind of, 'OK! Excuse me!'.' Pamela is a five-times married former Playboy model, who has seemingly hinted that her on-screen love interest Liam will not be her next hubby. She commented of her co-star: 'I think I have a friend for ever in Liam and we definitely have a connection that is very sincere, very loving, and he's a good guy.' She added: 'He really is a silly guy. He acts like a silly little boy sometimes.' 6 6 6
