Philadelphia Eagles rookie cornerback Cooper DeJean says he received a thoughtful message from fellow Iowa alum Caitlin Clark after his Super Bowl victory – despite her loyalty to the Kansas City Chiefs. 

The WNBA star made headlines last month when she was spotted sitting alongside Taylor Swift in a suite at Arrowhead Stadium for the Chiefs’ divisional round playoff game against the Houston Texans on Jan. 18.

The two were seen embracing one another after Swift’s boyfriend, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, scored a touchdown in the second half.

However, despite her apparent loyalties to the "Chiefs’ Kingdom," Clark sent a message to her fellow Hawkeyes star after his standout performance in Super Bowl LIX on Sunday.  

"She sent me a nice message congratulating me," DeJean said during an appearance on the "Up & Adams Show." 

"That was nice of her, being a Chiefs fan and all," he added with a smile.
