Travis Kelce has finally broken his silence on Harrison Butker’s comments while revealing what he calls his teammate.
Butker, the Kansas City Chiefs kicker, sparked outrage around the country with his comments regarding what he believes a woman’s role in the family should be. The three-time Super Bowl winner was speaking to the graduating class at Benedictine College earlier this month when he urged the females to embrace the homemaker vocation.
Kelce, one of the most outspoken players in the NFL, took his time to respond, but what he said was pretty wholesome.
The Chiefs tight end spoke up in Butker’s defense on Friday while on his ‘New Heights’ podcast with his brother Jason.
Travis made sure to note that he didn’t agree with most of what “Harry” said, revealing he’s probably the only one who calls Butker by the nickname. But he also pointed out that the player’s views won’t and shouldn’t impact their relationship.
“I’ve known him for seven-plus years probably, eight-plus years,” he said, “and I cherish him as a teammate.”
“When it comes down to his views and what he said at the [Benedictine College] commencement speech, you know, those are his. I can’t say I agree with the majority of it — or, just about any of it outside of just him loving his family and his kids.
“And I don’t think that I should judge him by his views — especially his religious views of how to go about life. That’s just not who I am.”
Travis Kelce Is Only The Latest Person From KC To Defend Harrison Butker
Travis Kelce claimed that Harrison Butker has always been great to the family and friends he’s introduced him to, adding, “And that’s how he treats everyone.”
Quarterback Patrick Mahomes shared similar sentiments too, referring to Butker as “a good person.”
New Photo From New England Patriots OTAs Appears To Hint At Who Their Starting Quarterback Will Be For The 2024 Season

The New England Patriots dropped an interesting hint on who the early front-runner is to open the 2024 season as their starting quarterback.
After three frustrating seasons, the New England Patriots traded starter Mac Jones to the Jacksonville Jaguars. They signed journeyman QB Jacoby Brissett to a one-year deal in free agency before using the No. 3 pick on North Carolina quarterback Drake Maye.
Many assume Brissett has a leg up on the QB competition given his experience and familiarity with the Patriots (he played there in 2016). But as you can see in the photo below, it’s Maye who’s taking snaps from starting center David Andrews:
There’s a long way to go before Week, but it’s certainly noteworthy to see Drake Maye getting snaps from Andrews here. While it’s common for teams to automatically decide that they want to “sit” their rookie QBs, Maye should get every opportunity to win the New England Patriots’ QB1 job.
In his final season at North Carolina, Maye completed 63.3 percent of his pass attempts for 3,608 yards and 24 touchdowns against nine interceptions to go along with 449 rushing yards and nine touchdowns.
