NFL and TikTok star Isaac Rochell is in his "homemaker era" and isn't afraid to show it.
Husband of popular influencer Allison Kuch, Rochell recently shared a day in his life as a "homemaker" after Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker's controversial college commencement speech that shared "diabolical lies told to women."
Isaac Rochell Is In His 'Homemaker Era'
Rochell, currently a free agent, shared a day-in-the-life video on TikTok recently, showing him taking care of his young daughter Scottie Bee and completing various household chores before his wife returned from her Pilates class.
"Here's my morning in the life as an NFL stay-at-home homemaker. Me and Ali switched roles for the day," he said before Kuch jumped in to remind him, "We don't have roles. We're equal partners."
After Kuch left for her exercise class, Rochell shared some highlights of his day.
"Yes, I do play in the NFL and yes, I'm playing next year," he continued. "But as of now, I'm a straight-up stay-at-home husband."
He demonstrated how he makes his daughter's bottles and how he distracts her with a song while prepping her meal. Her cute little laugh said it all! She's clearly happily distracted by her dad's melody.

"Secrets out. We're dropping this hat tomorrow," he said before showing the newest hat available on husbandpsa.com. "Listen, I have a wife who is absolutely a beast. 10 out of 10 boss, you name it, she is that. So we're dropping this hat tomorrow at 9 a.m."

Isaac Rochell Shared A 'Message To All Dads' On TikTok
In another recently shared TikTok video, Rochell shares some advice for "all dads."
"If your girl leaves the house without the kid and now you have the kid by yourself, don't call her," he said. "I don't care if she's gone for five minutes or five hours, do not call her. Let her breathe. She just gave birth. She held a kid for nine months and then pushed that thing out and you're gonna call her and ask her how many ounces the baby needs?"
Rochell said to just "figure it out." All of it. From how long to warm the bottle to where the diapers are, he suggests dads just "figure it out."
"It's inexcusable, fellas. No more your wife leaves the house, you're blowing up her phone asking her useless questions," he said. "Let her literally go get an iced vanilla latte with extra expresso and double the pumps of vanilla and maybe you'll have your second baby."
Many viewers appreciated his advice and point-of-view.
"This is the kind of content I want to see from the NFL," one person wrote in the comment section. Another said, "Right! Dads are a parent, not a babysitter. You are the best."
And others brought it back to Butker and all the things he had to say during his commencement speech.
"Something tells me Harrison Butker has never been alone with his kids," one viewer said. Another shared, "Mr. Kuch is making sure we all know he is no Harrison Butker!!"
