It was a family affair for Kelly and Matthew Stafford and their four daughters at the NFL Honors.
The couple were seen walking hand in hand with their children at the prestigious sporting awards night, held at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco on Thursday, February 6.
The NFL’s official X account shared footage of the family, captioning the sweet post, “The whole Stafford family is here 🥹”
Kelly, 36, wore a classy black gown with her blonde hair slicked back for the occasion while husband Matthew, 37, suited up for the event where he won the Associated Press NFL MVP award.

But it was their daughters, twins Sawyer and Chandler, both 8, Hunter, 7, and Tyler, 5, who really stole the spotlight as they walked the red carpet in matching dresses.
Speaking to NFL.com reporters on the red carpet prior to his win, the Los Angeles Rams quarterback gushed about his family being part of the special night.
“There weren’t a lot of decisions to be made there, it was just, ‘hey, we’re rolling,’ and I said, ‘Let’s go.’ So I’m happy to have them. They’ve been at almost every game this year so it was right that they were here tonight,” he said.
Matthew also joked that he mainly brought his daughters and wife along so they could steal the spotlight away from him.
“That was the plan. I don’t like a lot of attention so let them have it,” he quipped. “Nah, it’s cool to have them here, they’re having a blast. They’re so excited to be a part of this.”
Matthew added that it was a “humbling” experience to be nominated for the MVP award.
“It’s humbling. I have so much respect for the guys that have come before me, the guys that still play the game today,” he said. “I love this game and I love being part of the NFL and to be part of this tonight is truly special. It’s just a humbling experience to be honest with you.”
Earlier in the day, Kelly took to her Instagram Story to share photos of the family en route to the event, including one photo taken from inside a private jet.

Kelly shared an emotional message about her husband via her Instagram Story on Wednesday, February 4.
“This has been my favorite ‘football’ year .. not just because he had a great year, but this team/ organization/families were just different in the best way,” Kelly wrote.
She continued, “So sad it ended the way it did, but damn it was the most fun I’ve ever had during a season … surrounded by incredible women off the field, while knowing he was having the time of his career with the men on that field and sideline this year.”
Matthew and Kelly first started dating in the 2000s after meeting during their time together at the University of Georgia. Matthew was playing football for the college while Kelly was a cheerleader at the time.
They announced their engagement in March 2014 before tying the knot in April the following year.
