Seattle Seahawks superstar Russell Wilson has come forward to address where things stand with him and rumored R&B girlfriend Ciara.

Footage of Wilson fielding a question about his status with CiCi has surfaced online.

At a press conference for Nickelodeon’s ‘Kids’ Choice Sports Awards’, he skated around a direct answer as to if he was dating Ciara or not. “[Laughs] All I can say is you guys have to go and check out her new concert. That’s all I can say.” (Black Sports Online)

Reports last week suggested Wilson and Ciara would hook up for the annual White House Correspondents Dinner outing this past weekend.

Though neither Ciara’s nor Russell’s reps have confirmed the relationship, an innocent press release on the White House Correspondents’ Dinner guest list from AOL suggests things are more than platonic. Russell Wilson is listed as attending this weekend’s event “with his date Ciara.” (Billboard)

Various gossip blogs claimed CiCi and Wilson were spotted together at a baseball game a couple weeks ago.

Although she refrained from going into what tore them apart, CiCi spoke highly on her son with ex-rap star fiancé Future earlier this month.

“It clearly didn’t work out,” CiCi admitted in an interview. “But I have the greatest gift, the greatest joy of my life which is my son. Honestly, I feel like everything in life happens for a reason and my son has been the greatest gift that God has given me in my life and the most game-changing thing that’s happened in my life in a necessary way. That pretty much is what happened. I can’t really break all that down, you know, because I don’t think it really matters to tell you the truth – we’re cool. We have a child together – I think as a parent, it’s important to communicate. We don’t talk everyday, there’s no need to, but my son is clearly the connection behind he and I.” (“The Breakfast Club”)
