Harrison Butker Talks About His Benedictine College Speech At Chiefs Training Camp Today: ”
My whole career, I’ve talked about how I’m a husband and I’m a father before it comes to me as a kicker. I’ve always preached that. When I used that platform to talk about women, I say that they should embrace being wives and mothers over their career. I think it then got construed that I’m trying to put women down and I’m not all.
I love women and I love my wife. It comes from a place of my wife has never heard me speak publicly and she was there for that speech and she was in the background in one of the offices. I was getting emotional looking at her crying and understanding that she has sacrificed so much for me. She has completely changed her life around.
She has made sure she’s focused on being the ultimate wife and the ultimate mother. I see how happy and excited she is to embrace that life. She pushes me to be a better husband and a better father and focus on my three children and focus on her than maybe being the best kicker on the field.”
