LSU’s Will Campbell and Ashlyn Nussmeier Grab the Spotlight in Green Bay

It was an emotional night for LSU star lineman Will Campbell. While joined by many friends and family, he fought back tears following his draft selection, honored his late teammate Kyren Lacy, and won over scores of fans all over the world.

In a pre-draft interview with US Weekly, Will was asked about being in a high profile relationship. Campbell was quick to share just how supportive his girlfriend Ashlynn has been throughout the draft process. He said, “She’s amazing…[Ashlynn] has a football background, so she knows what it takes, the sacrifices that have to be made. If she wasn’t as good with that type of stuff, I’m sure it would be a lot more difficult. But she’s a rock star.”

Ashlynn joyously posted her thoughts about the NFL draft on her Instagram,“My guy is a patriot!!! Couldn't be more proud of you! It's been the sweetest to watch you walk through this process & how the Lord has used you through it all!! The most hard-working, dedicated, and humble leader-you have earned it!! Can't wait to cheer ya on!!!” To which Will responded in the comments, “thanks pook love u [hearts].”
