Travis Kelce is taking heat online after showing up before Sunday’s game in a Rashee Rice “Free 4” shirt. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, who has been everywhere lately thanks to his engagement to Taylor Swift, decided to make a public statement in support of his teammate. Fans were not impressed.
Rice is currently suspended after driving his Lamborghini 119 miles per hour, causing a crash that involved six vehicles and injured four people. To make matters worse, he then fled the scene, which is why his legal troubles are still ongoing.
