Tirico and his co-host Collinsworth pondered whether the man would still have proposed to his now-fiancée if the score had been in Dallas' favor during the rivalry matchup between the NFL teams.
Collinsworth said, “Would he have done it if the Cowboys had won? I don’t think so. I think he’s holding the ring.”
The Sunday Night Football host added, “You can’t start a marriage like that, with her having the upper hand. But 49ers win, ‘Here you go, let’s get married.’ "
