It’s good to be Cooper DeJean.
Not only was the rookie cornerback a key player that helped his Philadelphia Eagles win Super Bowl LIX, but it happened on Sunday, February 9 — his twenty-second birthday. Plus, he has a supportive girlfriend, Steph Wilfawn, who was by his side through it all.

Wilfawn, a student and part-time dermatology technician, met DeJean at the University of Iowa and meticulously planned her Super Bowl outfit as an homage to her birthday boy boyfriend. The brunette’s black shorts ensemble bore his jersey number — 33 — on the back. And her thigh-high boots had “Super Bowl LIX” bedazzled on one calf and “DeJean” written in script on the front of the other. The boots were brown with white laces, to resemble footballs.
When DeJean intercepted Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes in the second quarter and ran the ball for a touchdown, it was the first time a player had ever scored a touchdown in the Super Bowl on his birthday.
Wilfawn posted a video of the play to her Instagram Stories with a two-word caption: “Happy Birthday.”
After the Eagles won, DeJean found her in the crowd and scooped her up in a big bear hug before giving her a huge kiss. On Monday morning, she posted a photo of DeJean celebrating his win, holding what looked like a cocktail and wearing his Oakley ski goggles — which the players wear as the celebratory Champagne is being sprayed in the locker room and after-parties — over his baseball cap.
The couple have been together since at least summer 2024, when they went Instagram official in a July 4 post, published on July 5. In the picture, she’s in a blue bikini, and he in white shorts and a red baseball cap.
He commented on a September 9 post, in which she sported a Hawkeyes tank top, “Go Hawks.” She responded, “Hey Iowa hotguy.”
On November 5, Wilfawn posted a photo of herself holding a purse with “DeJean” written on it from inside Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Field, and then a photo with the man himself in his Eagles jersey.
And a December 27 photo carousel on her TikTok opened with a photo of the couple that she captioned, “2024 you were good to us.” The post went on to show him golfing, playing with a little dog and sitting on a football field — and included two closeups, one presumably of him holding Wilfawn’s hand, and another of his hand resting on her leg.
According to Wilfawn’s LinkedIn profile, she’s a third-year Enterprise Leadership major with a minor in human relations, and works part-time at Forefront Dermatology in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. She is set to graduate in May 2026.
