Kelly said her favorite part about NFL games is watching Matthew play and do what he loves best. However, when asked about the least enjoyable part. Stafford's wife said,

“Watching him struggle to get up can be tough. Hard hits, what do you feel? My heart drops every time. But I will say one thing. He knows that. So if he is not at all hurting, he pops right back up. It is for him, and also for the guy that hits him, to know that it didn't hurt that bad. But also, I think he knows that we're all watching each other,” Kelly said.

“And the girls have started to notice. They noticed it last year a few times. And I think that hit pretty hard for him. But again, I'm going to miss it when he does finally hang it up. Because I've enjoyed so much watching him do what he can do best. And, well, almost as much as a great father, too.”
