Dallas Cowboys cheerleader dating Bengals kicker Cade York

The Dallas Cowboys are hosting the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday Night Football this week in a special “Simpsons Funday Football” edition. The 5-7 Cowboys and 4-8 Bengals will both be looking to improve on their losing records this season.

The game will be played in Cowboys' territory at AT&T Stadium, which means the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders will also be in attendance. This game in particular makes that interesting as one of the cheerleaders is actually dating a recently signed Bengal.

Zoe Dale is a second-year Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader who happens to be dating Bengals kicker Cade York. Dale made the relationship public back in June of this year. York was only just signed to the Bengals' squad on Wednesday after Evan McPherson suffered an injury.

The timing was perfect, as the two will now meet in Arlington this week for the game. Technically, Dale will be cheering for the Cowboys of course. But York said she’ll actually be cheering for him.

“My girlfriend is actually a cheerleader for the Cowboys,” York said. “She got baptized this Sunday, so it was awesome getting to do that and all of her teammates got to come watch. And then literally, the next day, I get a call that I’m going to work out for the Bengals, and they’re playing on Monday. I was like, ‘Well, Zoe, I will see you at home no matter what.’"

“So, yeah, it’s pretty cool. She’s gonna be cheering for me. … But yes, we’ll both be there. She’s already told me second quarter and fourth quarter is when she’s on the visitor’s side. So I’ll have to sneak her a couple smiles.”

York is from McKinney, Texas and Dale is from Rowlett, Texas, about 45 minutes away. York was the star kicker at LSU and was selected by the Cleveland Browns in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft. He was 24-of-32 in his rookie season and was released the following year.

Since then, he’s bounced around to the Cleveland Browns, New York Giants, and Washington Commanders. The Commanders released him after he missed two field goals in the season opener.

As for Dale, she posted to her Instagram story saying “Go Cade & Go Cowboys!”, so it looks like she’ll be cheering for both.
