Minnesota Vikings quarterback Christian Ponder and ESPN reporter Samantha Steele were married late afternoon Monday, Dec. 17, in St. Croix County Court in Hudson, Wis., according to court officials.

Ponder, 24, and Steele, who turned 27 last week, were married by Court Commissioner Stephen Dunlap.

According to county records, Steele listed an Arizona address, while Ponder listed his residence as Excelsior, Minn. It is the first marriage for both.

According to previous reports, the two met earlier this year on the set of ESPN’s “College GameDay.” Ponder confirmed in October that they were dating.

The Vikings are in the hunt for a playoff berth, facing the Houston Texans and Green Bay Packers in the final two weeks of the regular season.
