The NFL came out strong for Halloween.
While they're used to turning heads on the field, several NFL stars traded their jerseys for seriously creative costumes to celebrate the spooky season this year.
Many of the league's players included their wives and girlfriends in creative costumes and went to extra lengths to bring everything from Disney characters and cartoon favorites to hilarious recreations of classic movie moments to life.
Here's a look at some of the best 2026 NFL Halloween couples' costumes.
Fred Warner went back to Bedrock with 'The Flintstones'
San Francisco 49ers linebacker Fred Warner and his family went prehistoric for Halloween.
The 49ers star, his wife, Sydney Warner, dressed up as the beloved cartoon family "The Flintstones," alongside their two children, Beau, 2, and Bella, 9 months.
Fred nailed the iconic cartoon dad, Fred Flintstone, wearing an orange tunic and blue tie, while Sydney donned Wilma's classic white dress and chunky pearl necklace.
Their little ones completed the adorable family looks as Bamm-Bamm and Pebbles. The 49ers star's family of four even posed in front of a Flinstones-inspired house, making the whole scene look like it came straight out of Bedrock.

It was their first Halloween as a family of four, and the couple didn't leave their young kids out of the festivities.
