Here’s a bold statement: the offseason for NFL players and their partners isn’t just about rest—it’s about resetting, reconnecting, and recharging in style. And no one embodies this better than Olivia Culpo, who’s setting the bar sky-high for the San Francisco 49ers’ WAGs (Wives and Girlfriends) during their annual bikini-clad retreat. But here’s where it gets controversial: Is a glamorous getaway in Cabo the secret sauce to bouncing back from a tough season, or just a lavish distraction? Let’s dive in.
Published on February 24, 2026, at 4:10 PM EST, and updated at 3:42 PM EST, this story highlights how Olivia Culpo, a seasoned NFL partner, is leading by example. If you’re searching for a masterclass in balancing post-season recovery with a touch of luxury, look no further. Culpo, whose husband Christian McCaffrey plays for the 49ers, understands that a strong offseason is just as crucial as the season itself—especially after a heart-wrenching loss.
The 49ers had a rollercoaster of a season, finishing 12-5 in the regular season only to be crushed by their division rivals, the Seattle Seahawks, in the NFC Divisional Round with a staggering 41-6 defeat. And this is the part most people miss: Watching the Seahawks go on to win the Super Bowl on their home turf added salt to the wound. But instead of dwelling on the past, Culpo and her fellow WAGs are focused on the future—and they’re doing it in bikinis.
Cabo, Mexico, has become the unofficial training camp for the 49ers’ inner circle, where string bikinis and ocean views replace helmets and huddles. Despite being a new mom to a 7-month-old toddler, Culpo made it clear that this annual tradition wasn’t going to be skipped. Joined by Claire Kittle, Kristin Juszczyk, Sarah Taylor, and Jenna Purdy, she’s proving that motherhood and maintaining team morale can go hand in hand.
Here’s the kicker: Their husbands aren’t just tagging along for the ride. They’re fully on board, recognizing that building a championship team requires unity both on and off the field. A drama-free offseason? Yes, please. Keeping the players relaxed on the beach instead of making headlines for off-field incidents is a win-win. After all, no one wants to start the season addressing offseason controversies when there’s already enough to worry about with drafts and free agents.
Culpo’s approach isn’t new—she’s been in the league long enough to know what works. But it’s her consistency and leadership that make her a standout figure among NFL WAGs. So, is this bikini-filled retreat just a lavish escape, or a strategic move to foster team cohesion? We’ll let you decide. Let us know your thoughts in the comments—do you think this kind of offseason reset is a game-changer, or just a glamorous sideshow?
