Ed McCaffrey doesn’t see any of his children in the Super Bowl, as he did last year with Son Christian, but he still made the trip to New Orleans of a special case.
The three-time Super Bowl champion recently collaborated with Colt to spread the attention of responsible gun possession.
“I am a component of firearm security. If you want to exercise your right to own a firearm, you should do it safe and responsible. That’s why I worked with Colt,” McCaffrey said in a recent interview with Pakinomist Digital.

Clay Matthews, Fletcher Cox, Adam Vinatieri and Joe Thomas were nominated for Colt’s Safety Impact Award, and Matthews won it. McCaffrey said it was “incredible” to be part of the campaign with some NFL legends.
“As many players, even those that I have coached, their own firearms,” said the former Denver Bronco. “Colorado, Big Hunting State, Big Outdoors State. Access to different states are different. But everyone should train properly and know how to deal with a firearm responsibly if they want to exercise their right to own them. I am a great believer In them, and I think people can be surprised at how many people own firearms.

“Take a pistol safety course. I would recommend if you are a first -time owner of a firearm, take a course. … Don’t just listen to a few tips from your friend. Take a course, be responsible,” McCaffrey said.
He compared the process of learning responsible gun possession in learning football at a young age.
“In football, I went to Lejre and Clinics that taught me how to play the game,” he said. “If you need to own a firearm, take a course and get your license and make sure you read all about how to properly run a firearm.”
