Fans are praising Butker for his quick actions. Previously, Butker faced backlash for homophobic, antisemitic, misogynistic, and sexist comments made during a commencement speech at Benedictine College. Despite calls for his release, Butker stood by his comments, with teammate Patrick Mahomes and head coach Andy Reid defending him, though Mahomes did not agree with all of Butker’s statements.
