“Brain dead CTE athlete”: Josh Allen's ex-girlfriend Brittany Williams sets social media on fire with cryptic social media post

Buffalo Bills star quarterback Josh Allen may be laser-focused on the 2025 NFL season and chasing a Super Bowl ring, but his ex-girlfriend Brittany Williams is making waves of her own—this time not with controversy, but with confidence. The 29-year-old influencer and former longtime partner of Allen has gone viral again, not for drama or comments, but for a striking new beachside photoshoot shared with her 180,000 Instagram followers.

Josh Allen and Brittany Williams' relationship, which began in 2017 and ended quietly in 2023, had been a staple in NFL pop culture. Though neither has publicly discussed the reason behind the split, Williams hasn’t always stayed silent. In one eyebrow-raising online post—later blamed on hacking—she commented, “Luckily my boyfriend owns a team and doesn't play for one. Don't have to be with another brain dead CTE athlete.”

While that comment stirred up a social media firestorm, Brittany now appears to be channeling her energy elsewhere. Her recent vacation snaps from Pismo Beach, California showed her enjoying time in a chic blue bikini, accessorized with a linen jacket and seashell necklace. One follower commented, “Beyond stunning,” while another praised, “Omg that suit is so cute! Love blue on you!”

The shoot featured candid moments with her Labrador and a child—possibly a nephew—painting a picture of someone who is thriving beyond the shadows of a high-profile breakup. Her fashion-forward beach ensemble drew comparisons to lifestyle influencers, as fans noted her effortless charm and beachy aesthetic.

Meanwhile, Josh Allen has turned his attention fully toward football and fiancée Hailee Steinfeld. The actress, fresh off a starring role in Sinners alongside Michael B. Jordan, seems to bring a touch of Hollywood stability to Allen’s life. Despite a heartbreaking AFC Championship loss to Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs last season, Allen secured his first MVP title after an electrifying year with 3,731 passing yards and 40 total touchdowns.

With Allen preparing for matchups against Mahomes and Lamar Jackson in the 2025-26 campaign, and Williams enjoying a personal resurgence, both appear to be thriving in their own ways. One in the spotlight of the NFL, the other on the golden sands of California—but both clearly moving forward.
