Christen Harper is loving life right now.

Christen Harper, who is engaged to Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff, and her good friend Katie Austin were awarded co honors as the 2022 rookies of the year.

“This whole brand is what you guys represent — fabulous people supporting each other, doing their thing bigger and better all the time,” SI swimsuit editor-in-chief MJ Day told the two models over a video call while delivering the news. “Really motivated, smart individuals who keep creating opportunities for themselves and keep growing. You do it for each other, and you do it for random strangers and you do it for us. It’s pretty awesome. There’s never been two more worthy people.”

Because of this huge honor, the two models will be invited to appear in next year’s swimsuit issue, which is by far their biggest issue of the year.

“SCREAMING. CRYING,” Harper wrote on her Instagram story after learning of the news, including several crying emojis. “The biggest honor ever. Thank you @si_swimsuit. I love you so much.”

Harper and Goff got engaged early in the Summertime.

The Detroit Lions currently only have one win, but Jared Goff is off to a good start. He’s thrown for 1,355 yards and 11 touchdowns to only four interceptions. Goff’s QB rating is currently at 92.9.

The Lions will face the Dallas Cowboys this week.
