"It’s crazy": Matthew Stafford shares his experience of being a dedicated father to four daughters

Matthew Stafford, the Los Angeles Rams quarterback, recently shared some valuable and humorous parenting advice with Jason Kelce on the New Heights podcast. With four daughters of his own — Sawyer, Chandler, Hunter, and Tyler — Stafford has a wealth of experience when it comes to raising girls. As Jason Kelce prepares to welcome his fourth daughter, he turned to Stafford for some insights on what to expect — and Stafford's response was both hilarious and heartwarming.

Matthew Stafford Shares Hilarious and Heartfelt Parenting Advice with Jason Kelce

“Buckle up, dog,” Matthew Stafford said with a big grin, drawing a hearty laugh from both Jason and his brother Travis Kelce. It was a lighthearted moment, but Stafford quickly followed it up with genuine warmth, expressing how much joy he finds in raising his daughters. His twin daughters are approaching eight years old, while his younger girls are six and four, creating a lively and energetic household.


Stafford described the chaos and excitement of life with four daughters, highlighting how much he cherishes these precious moments. “No, it’s a blast, man. We saw each other not too long ago and were talking about it, it’s a blast. My seven-year-olds will soon be eight, a six, and a four. So, we’re like rocking and rolling, wearing leotards all the time, doing gymnastics around the house. It’s crazy,” he said. Stafford’s description paints a vivid picture of a busy yet fulfilling home life, where impromptu gymnastics routines and playful dress-ups are part of the daily routine.

Despite the whirlwind pace, Stafford embraces it wholeheartedly. During the NFL offseason, he gets to spend more time at home, fully immersing himself in fatherhood. Interestingly, his wife, Kelly, has even joked about his constant presence becoming a bit annoying at times — a playful testament to how hands-on Stafford is as a dad.

When the idea of having a son was mentioned, Stafford admitted he couldn’t quite imagine it. “At this point, I don’t even know what I would do with a boy. I can’t even wrap my head around it. So, I’m all in on the girls,” he confessed. This sparked a playful exchange between the Kelce brothers, with Travis pointing out that if Stafford had a son, he would probably end up throwing a football with him all day. Stafford laughed, acknowledging that he’d figure it out, just like every parent eventually does.

The conversation took a hilarious turn when Jason raised a rather amusing concern about changing diapers for a boy. “Changing a diaper with a nutsack there, that just feels like it’d be weird,” Jason remarked, drawing laughter from both Stafford and Travis. “Like wiping s**t up a nutsack. I don’t want to be a part of that.” Stafford agreed, admitting that he had thought about it before and found the idea equally strange.

As Jason prepares to welcome his fourth daughter, Stafford’s experience and lighthearted guidance couldn’t have come at a better time.
