Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker has come under a great deal of fire in recent days due to statements he made during a speech at Benedictine College in Kansas. Speaking to their graduating class, Butker made direct verbal attacks on women and their place in society, Catholic Church leaders, and the LGBTQ+ community.

Kylie Kelce, the spouse of Jason Kelce, formerly of the Philadelphia Eagles, and the sister-in-law of Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, spoke at the graduation ceremony at her alma mater, Cabrini University, the former field hockey player started out her speech by jokingly stating it wouldn’t be that good of a commencement because her husband did not help her write it:

My husband, Jason Kelce, is known for giving some pretty earth-shattering speeches. He did not help me in writing my words today, so you can go ahead and lower those expectations.”

Cabrini University, which is closing its doors and selling its property to Villanova, is/was also a Catholic university.

Kelce went on to tell the class:

“I am well aware that my current position in life is due to the wonderful people around me, but I’ll be damned if I don’t stay true to myself in everything I do and ensure that I am always authentically me.
