In the clip, Underwood, 24, who’s clad in his Raiders gear, tells Raisman he’s proud of her accomplishments. “Just want to congratulate you on all your success in the competitions and representing the U.S.A. over there. I know I’ve been following along. My roommates, my teammates, everybody here is super proud of you,” Underwood says in the clip. “You know, if you’re ever in San Jose and want to go on a double date with me and Andrew and Shawn, let me know.”
