When the former Green Bay Packers player, 54, was asked on Saturday, January 13, if he thinks the musician, 34, is a “distraction” for the athlete, also 34, he replied, “I think it’ll be a distraction if they don’t make it to the Super Bowl.”

“If they don’t win it or get to the Super Bowl, people are going to say, ‘That’s why,'” he added of the “Lavender Haze” singer, who began publicly dating Kelce in September.
