Tennessee quarterback Joey Aguilar has had quite the journey in the past few months. After a successful season at Appalachian State, he decided to transfer to UCLA in December. However, things took a turn when Nico Iamaleava also transferred to UCLA, potentially taking the starting role. This led Aguilar to re-enter the transfer portal and commit to Tennessee, completing a surprising UCLA-Tennessee QB swap. Despite the whirlwind offseason, Aguilar has found time to unwind with his girlfriend, Rylan Moffitt.
Moffitt, a former player for the Appalachian State Mountaineers women’s basketball team, posted a heartwarming photo on her Instagram story over the weekend as the couple enjoyed a round of golf together. The caption read, “Where else would we be?!?” showcasing their strong bond.
As a frequent supporter of Aguilar during his time at Appalachian State, Moffitt has always been by his side, cheering him on from the sidelines at games. She often shared pictures from the stands and even dedicated a sweet message to him on Instagram, calling him “Joey football 4 ever!”
On the field, Aguilar faces the challenge of filling the shoes of the talented Nico Iamaleava at Tennessee. ESPN insider Bill Connelly believes Aguilar excels in scrambling and avoiding sacks compared to Iamaleava. However, Iamaleava faced tougher competition in the SEC, raising questions about how Aguilar will adapt to the new environment.
Despite the uncertainties, Aguilar and Moffitt’s relationship continues to blossom, both on and off the field. As they navigate this new chapter together, their unwavering support for each other remains a constant source of strength and comfort. With Moffitt by his side, Aguilar is ready to face whatever challenges come his way as he embarks on this new chapter at Tennessee.
