Chiefs make Harrison Butker the NFL’s highest-paid kicker ever with new $25m deal – three months after THAT controversial commencement speech

Harrison Butker is set to become the highest-paid kicker in NFL history, as the Chiefs have inked the 29-year-old to a new $25million deal.

Butker has signed a four-year, $25.6million contract that includes $17.8million in guaranteed money.

Butker’s new deal comes three months after he made headlines for a controversial commencement speech at Benedictine College in Kansas.
The Chiefs long-term kicker urged men to ‘fight against cultural emasculation’ and claimed women are destined to be ‘homemakers.’

Butker’s speech was full of his conservative views, not only on gender roles, but on abortion and vaccines as well.

‘To the gentlemen here today, part of what plagues society is this lie that has been told to you that men are not necessary in the home or in our communities,’ Butker said as part of the May speech.
