Travis Kelce slammed after being spotted wearing 'Free 4' top

Travis Kelce has been criticised after being photographed wearing a 'Free 4' top before a match.

Kansas City Chiefs player Kelce, who recently got engaged to Taylor Swift, wore the shirt featuring teammate Rashee Rice at Arrowhead Stadium.

Rice, 25, is currently on a six game suspension following his involvement in a car crash in Texas last year which involved multiple vehicles.

At the time of the collision in 2024, Rice was driving a Lamborghini Urus and had reached 119 mph only moments before the crash.

The player pleaded guilty in July to one count of third-degree felony collision involving serious bodily injury and a third-degree felony count of causing bodily injury.

Rice was was sentenced to five years' probation and 30 days in jail.

A six game suspension came into force in August after it was ruled that Rice had violated the code of conduct policy in the crash in Dallas.

Rice's ban will lift in week seven, ahead of the Chiefs facing off against the Raiders.

Both Kelce and teammate Tyquan Thornton were pictured wearing the t-shirts, which said 'Free 4' as well as having several illustrations of the disgraced star.

Their decision to don the shirts has been criticised by a lawyer representing an individual injured in the crash.

In a statement shared with TMZ, lawyer Marc Lenahan said: “Rashee isn’t Nelson Mandela or Pepe Mujica, men who fought for what they believed in.

"There is evidence that Rashee was going 119 mph in a $1,749 per day Lambo rental that had pot and a pistol in it, on a highway on Easter weekend.

"Free Rashee? He already thinks he’s getting away scot-free. He’s not paid a single cent of the $1.1 million judgment he already owes our client, who is living anything but pain-free.”

Lenahan added: “I respect that Kelce and Thornton support their teammate, but the ‘gym teacher’ needs to talk with the history teacher.”

Sunday's game was the second one of his suspension, and saw the Kansas City Chiefs lose out to the Eagles by 20-17.

The Chiefs' offensive line made several mistakes, leading to quarterback Patrick Mahomes taking ten total quarterback hits as well as two sacks.

Despite a late touchdown from the Chiefs cutting down the difference to three points, this did not lead to a comeback for the Chiefs and the Eagles were able to take the win.
