She adds, “I see Jesus in you. And as a result it makes you so easy to love. … There is no one I’d rather lay down my life for.” McLaughlin writes that she’s excited about how “this union will impact lives for His kingdom,” telling Levrone, “You’re the perfect man to lead me, and I cannot wait to follow.”
Levrone, who went undrafted out of college, spent portions of three NFL seasons with Baltimore, Carolina, and Jacksonville. Last year, when he retired from pro football at age 25, he shared about his faith—and how it’s been tested—on a Sports Spectrum podcast.
On his Instagram page, Levrone writes to his now-fiancée: “May we never love one another cautiously, but instead always be eager to love one another extravagantly, in the manner that Christ loved the Church.”
