The Kansas City Chiefs announced Monday that they have signed kicker Harrison Butker to a new $25.6 million contract. While the Chiefs are thrilled to be keeping one of the best NFL kickers in the league, the announcement is causing the hate-filled, woke left to lose its tiny, hive mind once again.
You may recall that liberals have been trying to get Butker fired all year after he dared to give a college commencement speech in May urging male graduates to embrace their masculinity and females not to forego having a family in order to pursue a professional career.
But now, instead of firing him, the Chiefs are signing him to a big new deal that will assure him of being on the team through 2028!
Per Adam Schefter, ” The Chiefs are signing standout kicker Harrison Butker to a four-year, $25.6 million extension that includes $17.75 million guaranteed, per sources. The deal ties Butker to KC through the 2028 season. Butker represented and negotiated the deal himself.”

Naturally, the far left had a conniption fit and flooded Schefter’s X post with their usual hatred for Butker and Christians.
Many leftists attacked Butker’s wife in their spiteful comments about the kicker’s new deal, such as vaccine pusher Apu Akkad:
Good he’s making money so his wife can stay home and cook and take care of the kids. Like he wants?

Others more broadly used the announcement to claim that the NFL “hates women” because the Chiefs re-signed Butker:
Wow the chiefs don’t respect women

After the disgusting misogynistic things he said? This is unacceptable and the chiefs should be punished!

I thought that his wife negotiated that deal? After all, she’s the brains of that operation.

wow, Chiefs rewarding a misogynist and bigot with a fat stack of cash, only in America folks! 🙄

Of course, there were also hundreds of supporters who were happy for Butker and the Chiefs.
