Travis Kelce on Harrison Butker's controversial speech: 'When it comes down to his views ... those are his'

Travis Kelce was the latest member of the Kansas City Chiefs to respond to kicker Harrison Butker's controversial commencement address at Benedictine College last week.

On this week's episode of the "New Heights" podcast that Kelce hosts with his brother, Jason Kelce, the Chiefs tight end said that he "cherishes" Butker as a teammate. He also echoed quarterback Patrick Mahomes' sentiment this week and said that Butker is "every bit of a great person and a great teammate."

“He’s treated family and family that I’ve introduced to him with nothing but respect and kindness," Kelce said.
