Travis Kelce cherishes Harrison Butker as a teammate despite not agreeing with the controversial comments he made during a commencement speech at Benedictine College.
During a Friday episode of their New Heights podcast, the Kelce brothers said that they don’t agree with Butker’s views, but they don’t want to judge him for his religious beliefs. Butker is Catholic and gave his commencement speech at Benedictine College, a Catholic university.
“When it comes down to his views and what he said at 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,” Travis said.
Jason said that he also doesn’t agree with Butker’s views but didn’t see how they could cause harm to the women in the audience.
