Arizona Cardinals cornerback Sean-Murphy Bunting has addressed the rumors claiming he’s Bobbi Althoff’s boyfriend after social media hit him with the label.
Althoff, who went through a divorce this year, took to Instagram to post a blurry video showing her embracing and being kissed by another man this week.
Dov Kleiman claimed the man in the clip was none other than Murphy-Bunting.
“Famous podcaster Bobbi Althoff has made her relationship public with #AZCardinals CB Sean Murphy-Bunting,” the account tweeted. “This is her first relationship since divorcing her husband.”
As you can see, the post was given the Community Note treatment.
“Sean Murphy-Bunting is not in a relationship with Bobbi Althoff,” the note reads.

It apparently resulted from the player flatly stating the man in the video wasn’t him.
“That’s not me,” Murphy-Bunting wrote.

Of course, the rumor didn’t spring from absolutely nowhere. Murphy-Bunting and Althoff are very familiar with each other.
She thanked him for helping her out after she passed out at a bar earlier this year, with footage of her carrying her outside surfacing online thereafter.
So it’s back to square one for the internet sleuths. Who is Bobbi dating?

Bobbi Althoff took to social media to thank Arizona Cardinals cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting for saving her from a “scary” situation this week.
The podcaster and social media influencer was seen being carried out of a bar on Monday as she was apparently too drunk to walk out on her own. She has since revealed who carried her out.
TMZ obtained a clip of Althoff being lifted out of the Barstool Sports Bar in Nashville and being placed into a vehicle.
She later got on Instagram to thank the CB for looking out for her and being a good friend.
“Last night was scary but thankful for having good friends in my life like @seanmurphybunting for looking out for me,” she wrote on her Instagram Story.

TMZ Explained Just What Was Going On With Bobbi Althoff During Her “Scary” Episode
The post is in line with TMZ’s report on Althoff and Murphy Bunting.
“First, Sean sits down on a set of stairs outside the bar with Bobbi in his arms, and then the Arizona Cardinals cornerback carries her with him into the back of a black SUV that pulls up to whisk them away,” the outlet relayed.
“A source connected to the group out that night tells us Sean was being a good friend … taking care of Bobbi to ensure she got home safely.”
The two also popped up in a TikTok video showing them dancing.
Murphy-Bunting joined the Cardinals earlier this year after a spell with the Tennessee Titans. The 27-year-old was a second-round pick out of Central Michigan, with the Tampa Bay Buccanneers selecting him at No. 39.
He helped the Bucs win a Super Bowl at the end of the 2020 season.
