DeShawn Shead enjoyed a memorable day yesterday. His NFL team won ... and he won at life by getting engaged to his longtime girlfriend Jessica Martinez!
DeShawn Shead Proposal
After the Seattle Seahawks beat the visiting Denver Broncos, 26-20, the 25-year-old defensive back provided the day's real fireworks in the Emerald City.
Cue Bruno Mars' aptly titled, "Marry You," which began playing over the loudspeakers, and a message that read "Will You Marry Me Jessica," on the scoreboard.
Shead's family and friends crowded around DeShawn, who had showered and gotten dressed, as he shocked Jessica by getting down on one knee on the field.
Needless to say, she accepted the proposal.
"Football brought me to Washington, for me to meet her, so I think this is a big part of our relationship," Shead told local KIRO after the big moment.
Pretty magical stuff all around for the pair.
Martinez called it the best day of her life, which the betrothed couple said they would be further celerating with their favorite meal: chicken and waffles.
Congratulations, DeShawn and Jessica!
This man is willing to die for love. Sort of. Watch his unparalleled proposal now.
