TikTok sensation Cali Prieskorn was hopeful that her husband Caden Prieskorn’s NFL dreams would finally come true during the 2025 Draft — until she had one key epiphany.
“I was feeling so confident until I learned this,” Cali, 25, said on the Sunday, March 23, episode of the “Sunday Sports Club” podcast. “I learned that when you get drafted, that doesn’t mean you’re on the team. I didn’t know that. I was like, ‘OK, in May, we’ll be fine [and] we’ll get a house [and] will be fine.’”
As Cali initially tried to soothe her concerns about potentially moving their family to a new city, Caden, 25, then explained that official team rosters “don’t come out till, like, August.”
“I was like, ‘Sorry, what?’” Cali recalled. “Now, I’m like, ‘I’m gonna build a stable home in Oxford, [Mississippi] and you can go soul-searching.’ I mean, you don’t know. You could be cut and picked up and cut and picked up — and we do have the kids to think about and Mac is in school.”

Caden, a tight end for the University of Mississippi, declared for the NFL Draft earlier this year. As he’s been training, wife Cali and their two children — son Mac, 3, and daughter Romy, 10 months — have been his biggest supporters.
“Having that home to come back to and that stable place, where you can hang their clothes up in the closet and things like that is important to me,” Cali told podcast host Allison Kuch. “We kind of just decided, like, ‘Let’s have a house in Oxford for now. Maybe, we’ll pick a new home one day, but Oxford is home for us.’”
According to Cali, she and Caden plan to watch the draft live on TV from his family’s house in Michigan.
“I think the unknowns are very hard, you know, he’s projected to be a late-round pick or a free agent, which is borderline,” Cali admitted. “I’m almost, like, ‘Well, if you’re going to be a seventh-round [pick], you might as well let us pick where we’re going.’”
Cali is also aware that Caden is coming into the draft as part of “the biggest tight end class” in the league’s history, which could affect where he lands in the NFL — if at all.
“There’s, like, 30 of them,” Cali said. “Last year, there were 16 tight ends and this year there’s, like, 30. Caden didn’t get a Combine invite, which we were all like, ‘What?’ No one really understood that, but it’s just how it happens. He’s got Pro Day [coming up, though], which I think would be really good for him to go out and show out at Pro Day instead of [having] an inconsistent day at the Combine.”
