Olu Fashanu's Girlfriend Was Boxed Out By His Mom After He Was Selected By The Jets

Tonight, the New York Jets didn't go with the sexy pick...and that may just be what they'll need in 2024 & beyond. 

Olu Fashanu. The OT from Penn State. A phenomenal pass blocker who will help the Jets make the playoffs for the first time since 2010 (insane sentence). 

Olu will never be a guy in front of the camera, but tonight, he featured one of the most viral picks of the draft. Why? Well, keep an eye on his girlfriend here:

This is always an awkward situation for the girlfriend...it happens every NFL draft. It will happen tomorrow and on Saturday. She is seated next to the mother, not her boyfriend/fiance/husband. When the pick happens, what does she do? Reach over? Or let the mother have her moment.

Olu's girlfriend handled it perfectly...awkwardly reach over and let mama have her moment:

Now, of course, the internet will run with this video as proof that his mom hates her. Other videos, not the one shown on ESPN, show she's a pretty big fan of the GF:

Congrats to the FAMILY. 

YOU ARE A NEW YORK JET, OLU! THE FUTURE IS BRIGHT.
