Kansas City Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce has finally given his thoughts on kicker Harrison Butker's controversial commencement speech.
The Kansas City Chiefs organization and the NFL were hit with a whirlwind of backlash after kicker Harrison Butker delivered a commencement speech that was widely viewed as controversial. Butker espoused traditional social conservative opinions — including referring to Pride Month, celebrated by the LGBTQ+ community, as 'the deadly sin sort of pride that has an entire month dedicated to it.
'Kelce stated on the show, '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 kids.'Kelce's stance was similar to Mahomes, who stated, 'I've known him for seven years. I judge him by the character he shows every day and that's a good person.'Kelce did confirm that he doesn't agree with what Butker said — like many on the Chiefs and around the NFL did already.
