If you’re not a fan of bringing politics into sports, look away, as now sports are making their way into politics. President-elect Donald Trump has announced that former Denver Bronco Scott Turner will serve as the Secretary of the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Turner turned to social media to thank Trump for the opportunity to hold such a large position in his cabinet.

Thank you, Mr. President. I am thrilled to continue the outstanding work we began in your last administration at HUD with an incredible team. I am deeply humbled by your confidence in my nomination.

I would also like to express the sincerest of gratitude to my mentor, Secretary… pic.twitter.com/X2ZJLSrfGI

The position was originally created in 1965 and aims “to increase homeownership, support community development, and increase access to affordable housing free from discrimination.”

This isn’t Turner’s first high position in politics. In 2013, he was sworn in as a member of the House of Representatives, and in 2019, he was appointed to the White House Opportunity and Revitalization Council.

Scott Turner Had A Long NFL Career

Turner was originally a seventh-round pick by the Washington Redskins in the 1995 draft.

He would play with them for three years, recording three interceptions, one forced fumble, one fumble recovery, and even bringing one back for a touchdown.

After that, Turner spent four years with the San Diego Chargers before going to the Denver Broncos for one year and eventually leaving the league altogether.

After he retired from the NFL, he started his political career, arguably even better than his time in the league.

Kansas City Chiefs President Forced To Address Rumors That Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce’s Relationship Is Just A “Marketing Strategy” For The Team

There’s a conspiracy theory for just about everything, including bizarre ones relating to the highly publicized relationship between Grammy Award-winning singer Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

The three-time Super Bowl champion has been in a relationship with Taylor Swift for over a year. Their rumored romance was confirmed when Swift attended the Chiefs’ Week 3, 2023 home game against the Chicago Bears at Arrowhead Stadium.

Kelce’s romance with Swfit has been a giant win for the Chiefs and the NFL, too. She has brought plenty more attention to the NFL and contributed to the Chiefs’ skyrocketing popularity worldwide.

Naturally, conspiracy theorists believe the Travis Kelce-Taylor Swift romance is simply a marketing ploy to help the Chiefs and the league. But Chiefs president Mark Donovan finally addressed the ridiculous rumor during an appearance on NBC’s “Squawk Box” program:

“I’d love to say that it was a marketing strategy, but it is an authentic relationship. And we’re happy to have it, and it’s been nothing but good for us.

I think the best thing I can say about the whole relationship and the impact it’s had on us is, Taylor Swift is an authentic member of the Kansas City Chiefs kingdom. She’s an authentic fan and that matters to our fans and our fan base and to matters to us and we try to respect that.”
