Kayla Puzas was first introduced to Dak Prescott’s girlfriend. The duo started dating in 2014 and couldn’t take their eyes off each other. Their relationship has not been a secret from their fans as they have been constantly uploading their dates to social media platforms. However, a split broke out between them in 2015, which annoyed both of them to remove all records of their relationship on social media.

Dak stayed single for a while and eventually found love with Yasmine Nicole who is a super hot model. They began dating in September 2016. Just like their relationship with Kayla, the duo also publicized their relationship in a similar fashion with image uploads of their activities. Their relationship blossomed, however, the Dak Prescott is rumored to have taken an interest in a Las Vegas waitress named Rosette Abud. We wouldn’t give the rumors total faith.
