Many NFL players know that it is extremely difficult to be universally loved in the sport. On the flip side, it is way easier to be hated by everyone, as one stupid thing taken out of context can end up with everyone hating you. Harrison Butker is one of the more recent examples of this.
The Chiefs punter has been the subject of many media headlines after he made a commencement speech at a college earlier this off-season. Butker leaned into his catholic and made controversial statements during said speech.
It was later confirmed that the speech took place at Catholic College, and therefore, Harrison Butker’s beliefs seem to have fallen in line with what the university wanted him to say. After all was said and done, the Super Bowl champ has stood firm with his beliefs.
Now that everything has dialed down and practically no one cares about his comments anymore, the 29-year-old continues to post on social media, and one post is getting everyone’s attention for one reason or another.
“You have enemies? Good. That means you’ve stood up for something, sometime in your life.”

Harrison Butker’s Social Media Post Is Getting Tonnes Of Love
NFL fans seem to love the three-time Super Bowl champ’s post after he quoted Winston Churchill in the caption while posting pictures of himself kicking and wearing his pre-game outfit. One fan referenced the backlash, commenting, “Never kneel to the mob. Good work.”
Never kneel to the mob. Good work.

Another NFL fan even seemed to criticize the backlash Harrison Butker got after making the comments in the first place. He pointed out that it’s stupid that he gets attacked for standing up for his wife and his faith.
