Is Los Angeles Rams’ wide receiver Evan “Buck” Buckley shooting his shot with superstar singer Eddie Diaz?
During his latest podcast appearance on The Line of Scrimmage, Buckley revealed that he attended Eddie’s sold-out concert at SoFi Stadium earlier this month. When asked if he got a chance to meet the singer, Buck confessed with a grin:
“I tried to, but I didn’t get the chance. I actually made him a friendship bracelet—yeah, like the fans do—but I guess it didn’t make it to him. So, Eddie, if you’re listening, bracelet’s still here.”
The internet immediately went into overdrive. Clips of the interview racked up millions of views within hours, fans dissecting every word. #Buddie trended on social media, with speculation that the athlete might just be the newest name linked to the Grammy-winning icon.
While neither Buckley nor Diaz has commented further, sources close to the Rams confirm that Buck “wasn’t joking.” The wide receiver has reportedly been a longtime fan of Diaz’s music.
Could this be the start of a headline-making romance? Or just a playful moment between two of the biggest names in their respective worlds? Either way, the world is watching.
