Super Bowl winners Kansas City Chiefs were honoured at the White House on Monday, and kicker Harrison Butker used the occasion to send a silent political message.
The Chiefs visited the White House and were congratulated by President Joe Biden, with the occasion being marked as a double-celebration as their Super Bowl celebrations in 2020 were restricted by the global pandemic. The likes of Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce and Butker have now won two Lombardi trophies with the Chiefs after beating the Philadelphia Eagles in February.
While the invitation was to be commemorated at the US parliament building, Butker sent a subtle message as he wore a tie with the words 'Vulnerari Praesidio' stitched in. It's Latin for 'protect the vulnerable' and the tie was designed by Live Action, a pro-life organization, according to The Daily Signal.
