Dale, 22, and the 23-year-old NFL kicker — who made his debut with the Bengals on Monday — stole the show during the matchup when the ESPN broadcast highlighted their relationship while Dale earned an extra point for Cincinnati in the first quarter.
The Dallas cheerleader looked nervous when cameras filmed her reaction to York's kick. Once she saw he had successfully earned the extra point, Dale nervously laughed and said, "Praise God," on the sidleines.
ESPN broadcast Troy Aikman got in on the fun, joking, "You can't make this up," as viewers reacted to the NFL couple.
According to ESPN reporter Lisa Salters, York and Dale have been dating for roughly seven months, and York had been hoping to find a new NFL team when he got the call from the Bengals to fill in for injured kicker Evan McPherson.
Before the game on Monday, reporters asked York if he was excited to share the field with his girlfriend in Dallas. "She's going to be cheering for me, so it's gonna be great," the kicker said, per Fox.
"I’ll have to sneak her a couple of smiles," York added.
And after the game, Dale posted a "Day In the Life" TikTok from her game day, including two sweet clips with York.

In the first clip, York walks up to Dale as she's sitting on the sideline bench and kisses her on the head.
In the second clip, the couple are seen reuniting after the game. Dale, wearing a more comfortable post-game outfit than her cheerleading uniform, jumped into York's arms after he and the Bengals won their game 27-20.
Dale also gifted York a fun custom-made shirt with her face on it before the game, telling her followers on TikTok that she had it made quickly by a local vendor in time for her boyfriend's visit to Dallas.
