Football fans are using the same roast to put Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker in his place following his controversial comments at a commencement speech last week.

Last Saturday, Harrison Butker made headlines when he made a series of homophobic, antisemitic, sexist and misogynistic comments during his speech to a graduating class at Benedictine College in Atchison, Kansas.

In the speech, Butker suggested to the female graduates that they become “homemakers” while emotionally discussing his marriage to wife, Isabella. Butker’s comments have been condemned by several notable people, including NFL Senior Vice President, Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer Jonathan Beane, NFL Network reporter Jane Slater, Kelly Stafford (the wife of Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford) and nuns at Benedictine College.

Many fans on X/Twitter put Butker right in his place by pointing out that he plays the same position as former Vanderbilt star athlete Sarah Fuller, who made history as the first woman to play in a Power Five football contest four years ago:


The Chiefs have yet to address Harrison Butker’s comments publicly. The soon-to-be 29-year-old has one year remaining on the five-year contract extension he signed with Kansas City during the 2019 offseason.

Butker was drafted by the Carolina Panthers in 2017 but has spent his entire career with the Chiefs. He has a career field goal percentage of 89.1 and an extra point success rate of 94.5.

Online Petition Calls For Chiefs To Release Harrison Butker

An online petition at Change.org calls for the Kansas City Chiefs to release Harrison Butker following his controversial comments. There are already over 205,000 signatures, with the current goal set at 300,000.

Butker has established himself as one of the most clutch kickers in football, having played a vital part of the Chiefs’ three Super Bowl championships over the last five years. But head coach Andy Reid and company must decide how to go about the Butker controversy.
