Before the NFL preseason kicked off, Nicole Anderson and Cameron Rose Newell captured attention with a coordinated NFL-themed look. On Wednesday, Anderson, the girlfriend of Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs, shared an Instagram story that featured both women donning caps representing their partners’ teams. Anderson wore a Detroit Lions hat displaying Gibbs’ No. 0, while Newell sported a Las Vegas Raiders cap with Brock Bowers’ No. 89. The matching purses and hats highlighted a united style ahead of the new season.
This display came just before the Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio, where Gibbs and the Lions are set to face the Los Angeles Chargers in the NFL preseason opener.

Nicole Anderson and Cameron Rose Newell have established identities beyond being NFL player partners, both cultivating their own digital and professional presences. Anderson is a licensed real estate agent and a fashion influencer, garnering the attention of over 130,000 Instagram followers with her original game day ensembles and lifestyle posts. She has built a notable presence in Detroit’s sports community by sharing everything from Lions-inspired outfits to stylish summer looks in Alabama.
In contrast, Newell has combined her education and entrepreneurial spirit, recently completing a marketing and entrepreneurship degree at the University of Tennessee.

“I’m being split out like way more than I was the past two years,”
Gibbs said in July, via WXYT Detroit.
“That’s good. That’s going to be fun. I’ve been waiting on that.”
Brock Bowers made a statement during his rookie year as one of the most productive tight ends, totaling 112 receptions, 1,194 yards, and five touchdowns. Despite the Raiders’ challenging season, Bowers proved to be a reliable and versatile player. This offseason, he has devoted himself to team development, forming a strong connection with quarterback Geno Smith and emerging as a leader during training camp.
