Exclusive:Travis Kelce is the latest NFL star to defend Harrison Butker – but who else is backing the Chiefs kicker over his controversial ‘homemaker’ speech?

Kelce became the latest member of Chiefs Kingdom to launch a defense of Butker this week after standing up for his teammate against the cancel-culture backlash.

He’s treated family and family that I’ve introduced to him with nothing but respect and kindness. And that’s how he treats everyone.

‘When it comes down to his views and what he said at the Saint Benedict’s commencement speech, 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.’

Several other Kansas City figures leapt to Butker’s defense, including head coach Andy Reid.

‘Everybody is from different areas, different religions, different races, and so we all get along, we all respect each other’s opinions,’ Reid said.

It’s a great thing about America, man,’ he continued. ‘And we’re just, like I said, a microcosm of that and my wish is that everybody could kind of follow that.’
