There are only a few players who come under the spotlight since their rookie season or debut. One is Sauce Gardner, who became a topic of discussion this season. With his impressive plays with the New York Jets, he retained his place as the No. 1 cornerback in the league in the 2023 NFL Cornerback Rankings.

However, besides his glorious performance, his off-field personal life remains secretive. Despite being active on social media, it’s difficult to confirm if he is in a relationship or not. However, there are some reports which allegedly suggest Gardner is dating!

Who is Sauce Gardner’s girlfriend?

According to some reports, Sauce Gardner has been in the relationship for some years now. He is allegedly dating a volleyball player, Jayden Hackworth. In an early interview with Fleaflickerr on TikTok, Gardner openly accepted that he is a young taken man. As per the reports, Gardner and Hackworth met at the University of Cincinnati, where the two were just one year apart.

Hackworth completed her early education at Roger Bacon High School in 2020, and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Communication General. Furthermore, she was an outstanding student at her high school. Born in January 2002 in Cincinnati, Ohio, Hackworth is a licensed esthetician.

Although no one is aware of Gardner’s thoughts on his love life, we definitely know his thinking process about his other love, football.

Sauce Gardner never gets bored on the field?

There is no doubt that Sauce Gardner has quickly made an indelible mark on the football field. Despite the Jets’ downfall after his new friend and teammate Aaron Rodgers‘ abrupt exit from the season, Gardner continued to rise with his game and brilliant thought process.

During the 2023 season, the cornerback said, “Whether the ball comes or not, I’m still able to make a play. I always say I can’t get bored or tired of the ball not coming my way. I’m always trying to perfect my craft.”

This statement is evident enough to explain why he became the highest draft pick in school history and why as the No. 1 cornerback in the NFL this past season.
