From 2016 to 2022, Kay Adams was the face of Good Morning Football for the NFL Network. Building on her immense talent, she quit that show and now hosts her own ‘Up & Adams’. Being in the industry for so long, her skills made her a stand-out in a male-dominated industry. But being good means creating chemistry, which has created some rumors in the past about her dating NFL athletes, and also a rumor with Kevin Durant. But is it true?

Did Kay Adams get married?
The 39-year-old Chicago native has kept her personal life private for so long. But one thing to confirm is that she is not married, as of the latest public records. Previous rumors have romantically associated her with several NFL players via her podcast. Adams’ chemistry on her talk show has led her to be linked with C.J. Uzomah, Shams Charania, and Danny Amendola. But despite those rumors, she has no publicly confirmed spouse.

According to Distractify, Adams was romantically linked with Amendola in 2015. At the time, the two were spotted together with friends at the Super Bowl. Kay Adams later shared a photo from the night, which sparked more interest. However, none of the parties confirmed the rumors’ authenticity. The next link up has an even interesting story.
Imagine a player who left a team and joined another. But some thought Kay Adams was the reason behind it. We are talking about Uzomah, who left the Cincinnati Bengals and joined the New York Jets in 2022. Yes, if we believe rumors, the 32-year-old tight end changed teams because of Adams. But that’s not the reality. On X, he clarified with a direct statement. “Uh… idk what @DLInTheTrenches is talking about. I’m not dating Kay. My decision to go to NY was not about anything other than what was in my best interest for me and my playing career. Respect you, Dave, but had to call this out when false rumors are spreading.”

Similarly, Adams’ interaction on her show with an ESPN senior insider grabbed headlines. Charania joined Kay in her Up and Adams show, and also gave her a wonderful Valentine’s Day present, with a note: “with much love & with much admiration for you as a person. Happy Valentine’s Day.” Later, the two attended the Super Bowl XLVIII together; naturally, everybody wanted to know the answer. But the man who gives all the updates about NBA contracts chose not to answer about his life. “I wouldn’t classify myself as anything,” said Charania.
Kevin Durant’s Invited Kay Adams
How does KD come into the picture? Similar to every rumor about Kay Adams, an interaction on her show was enough for the internet to go crazy. The latest one was the only time. Back in November last year, the then Suns star stated, “Cause I’m seeing you, I’m smiling.” That did leave Adams blushing. So, when a similar interaction took place now, the fans are again on their feet to connect the dots. This time, the statement from Durant involved an invitation to the game and a dinner invite.

“I’m expecting you to come to a game,” Kevin Durant said. “I’ll see you at one of these games in Houston, and we going to a barbecue down here in Texas when you get out here, alright?” Fans speculated whether it’s romantic or just playful banter. Adams pushed back, reminding Durant she had once attended one of his games but never even got a wave because he was sidelined with an injury. Again, there is no concrete evidence, just their playful banter.

Kay’s Denials & Her Statements on Dating
So far, Kay Adams has not clarified her personal life. Be it C.J. Uzomah, Shams Charania, Danny Amendola, and Kevin Durant, the TV personality remained quiet. But last year, on The 25/10 Show, she addressed Daniel Jones rumors. It started when Adams’ interview with Jones during training camp led to widespread speculation on social media. She added fuel to the fire by jokingly referring to the Giants’ signal-caller as her “boyfriend” at the beginning of the NFL season.
Clarifying that she had only met him twice and they are not dating. “I’m not dating Daniel Jones — breaking, breaking news — I’ve met him all of two times, wish him the best, I’m pretty sure he has a girlfriend,” Adams told the hosts. So far, all her appearances and answers about her personal life have been handled with grace. Being in the spotlight for so long, Adams knows that her personal lives come under the spotlight just like the players’.
