Marvin Harrison Jr.’s girlfriend, Charokee Young, stood by his side as he was selected as the No. 4 pick in the NFL Draft in April 2024. Young, an athlete herself, has won two NCAA Division I championships in track and field.

Despite not frequently posting about each other on social media, Harrison and Young have shared subtle glimpses into their relationship, including Valentine’s Day celebrations and sweet comments exchanged between them.

Charokee Young remains a supportive presence in Harrison’s life, offering encouragement as he pursues his career in professional football.

She went to Texas A&M University

Young graduated from Texas A&M University in 2023 with a degree in sports management, per her LinkedIn. While she was a student, she also was a Division I athlete, running track and field for the school.

“Overcoming hurdles on the track and in the classroom, I proudly stand at the finish line of my college journey. 🙏,” she wrote on Instagram after her graduation. “Grateful to have balanced being a student athlete and professional track star. 🎉 Graduation is not just a degree, it’s a testament to hard work, dedication, and divine guidance.”

She’s a professional athlete

Charokee Young has had a remarkable athletic career. During her time in school, she set the college record for the spirit medley relay in 2022. Transitioning to professional competition, Young has represented Jamaica on the world stage.

She competed in the Budapest World Championships in August 2023 and earned selection to Team Jamaica for the World Indoor Championships in Glasgow in February 2024. Young has achieved significant success, boasting two silver medals at the World Championships and currently holding the 27th ranking in the women’s 400m event.

With aspirations of becoming an Olympian, Young continues to pursue excellence in her athletic endeavors, showcasing her talent and determination on the international stage.

They have been dating for over a year

Young and Harrison never post each other on their social media, but they have left clues to their relationship on their individual pages. Young frequently posts the flowers Harrison sends her, and she began posting them in early 2023, starting with Valentine’s Day.

In June 2023, she shared with her followers on TikTok that she was in a long-distance relationship and missing her boyfriend. Instead of cuddling with him, she joked, she cuddles with the stuffed bear he got her — which was wearing an OSU sweater.

Six months later, Young attended a December OSU game in Dallas, Texas, showing off photos from the event on Instagram. “I did not come to PLAY,” she wrote in the caption, with Harrison cheekily replying, “The caption was a little funny I’ll give it to you🙂.”

For Valentine’s Day in 2024, Young seemingly made her relationship with Harrison Instagram official. She posted photos of herself posing with pink roses and red heart balloons alongside a frame he gifted her with a photo of the two of them.

“Love💝💗💘💓💕💖love,” she wrote in the caption. Harrison responded in the comments with two heart emojis.

They enjoy watching sports together

In January 2024, Young visited Harrison at OSU and the two attended a basketball game between OSU’s Buckeyes and Iowa State University’s Hawkeyes. They sat in the front row among a sea of OSU fans decked out in red.

Charokee Young maintained a low profile during the NFL Draft in April 2024, but she showed her support for Marvin Harrison Jr. by attending the event by his side. After the draft, she shared a light-hearted TikTok video, humorously breaking the rules by posing with the phone intended for Harrison’s call.

In the video, she wrote, “Everyone: Please stay away from the phone. Me:” above the footage of her playfully pretending to pick up the phone and striking poses with it.

Additionally, Young reposted photos of Harrison at the draft on her Instagram Stories and included a picture of herself smiling while holding up a Cardinals cap, indicating her excitement and pride for Harrison’s achievement.
