Fans of Kelce, and his girlfriend Taylor Swift, expressed their outrage on social media that Wallen was wearing the jersey number of the star tight end’s teammate.
Other photos on social media showed that Wallen had his own name on the back of the jersey.

Butker’s commencement speech at Benedictine College was hotly debated and picked apart over accusations of sexism. He urged female graduates to embrace being a "homemaker" and criticized the LGBTQ community and President Biden for his stance on abortion.
In the speech, Butker added, "Things like abortion, IVF, surrogacy, euthanasia, as well as a growing support for the degenerate cultural values and media all stem from pervasiveness of disorder."
Butker stood by his remarks and expressed as much in the days after the controversy. He said at a gala in May he understands that he has become a "more polarizing" figure the more he has spoken out about his beliefs – but he will never care what people think of him.

Glorifying God and not ourselves should always remain our motivation despite any pushback, or even support. I lean on those closest to me for guidance, but I can never forget that it is not people, but Jesus Christ who I’m trying to please."
