We may finally find out which Minnesota Vikings player Lizzo was referencing on her hit "Truth Hurts."

The song, which was first released in 2017, includes the line: "new man on the Minnesota Vikings." Lizzo confirmed earlier this year that a Vikings player was in her DMs and they went on a date, though she hasn't revealed his name.

Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs was asked about the reference during an interview with Sports Illustrated, and promised to "get to the bottom of it." He said he'd already asked his teammates.

"I want to ask (Lizzo) myself," Diggs said. "I've been wanting to ask her that question since I heard the song, so I need to know."
