Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert is facing criticism from some NFL fans after a video surfaced showing him with his fiancée, pop star Madison Beer, during a team training camp session. The clip, which gained significant online traction, depicted the couple sitting together on the sidelines.
In the footage, Herbert and Beer were seen interacting affectionately while resting on the grass. While some viewers expressed admiration for the couple's public display of affection, a segment of football fans took to social media to question Herbert's focus as the Chargers prepare for the 2026 NFL season.
Concerns were voiced on platforms like X, with one user writing, "This is embarrassing bro why are you doing this in the middle of the field lmao you can't find a private place?" Another commented, "Why do they always turn training camp into their personal makeout sesh? Nobody cares about your mid PDA, keep that s*** private." A third fan expressed pessimism about the team's prospects, stating, "Oh yeah he's gonna suck this year charger fans lol."
The sideline appearance comes shortly after Herbert and Beer announced their engagement. The couple shared the news via a joint Instagram post, accompanied by the caption, "Meet my fiancé."
Herbert, who has generally maintained a private personal life, reportedly described proposing to Beer as more nerve-wracking than making his NFL debut. He recently spoke about Beer's influence on his life as he heads into his seventh professional season, telling SiriusXM NFL Radio, "It's so incredible. She's changed my life. It's something I never thought was possible. It's so awesome to find your person and know you get to spend your life with them."
Beer was recently observed in Los Angeles showcasing her engagement ring, a large diamond, just days after the couple's announcement. She has been touring internationally during the NFL offseason, with Herbert offering his support.
