The Kansas City Chiefs kicker has not shied away from expressing his faith, even if that meant getting backlash from some fans.<\/p>\n<div id=\"\" class=\"ad-container\">\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-1589376019464-0\" class=\"\" data-google-query-id=\"CPn6wbO0xokDFWj8_QUdED0iog\">\n<p data-idx=\"1\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_1\">With voters deciding between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris for the next U.S. President, Butker took to Instagram to share a video urging his fellow Christians to vote. He criticized Harris and reminded viewers that Christian churches have been the target of hundreds of attacks since 2020.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Christians! Head to the polls today. Vote to keep God in America. Vote President Trump,&#8221; he captioned the post.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div id=\"infinite-content-ad-3\" class=\"ad-container\">\n<div id=\"gpt_unit_\/11446729\/Desktop_300250_3_1\" data-google-query-id=\"CNvRq7O0xokDFfzg_QUdk1QvYg\">\n<p data-idx=\"2\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_2\">Butker has been vocal about his political beliefs, especially in the lead-up to the election. In mid-October, he announced the creation of the &#8220;UPRIGHT PAC,&#8221; an initiative to encourage other Christians to vote in this year&#8217;s election.<\/p>\n<p data-idx=\"3\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_3\">Before that, he explained why he was behind Donald Trump at a rally held by Missouri state senator Josh Hawley in Parkville. During a Fox News appearance with the senator, Butker discussed his decision to back Trump, saying that the former President was the candidate more focused on pro-life issues.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Well, I&#8217;m supporting, the president that&#8217;s going to be the most pro-life president &#8230; The most crucial topic for me, I want us to be fighting for the most vulnerable, fighting for the unborn, and that&#8217;s what we should prioritize, that&#8217;s obviously what Senator Hawley is doing as a man of faith.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"sportskeeda-embed\" data-src=\"embed\">\n<div class=\"sk-embed-wrapper\" data-embed-type=\"tweet\">\n<div class=\"sk-embed-container\">\n<div class=\"sk-embed-content\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Harrison Butker endorses Trump. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/49ouEliHbr\">pic.twitter.com\/49ouEliHbr<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 James Blazsik (@BlazsikJames) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BlazsikJames\/status\/1844759677692694934?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 11, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p data-idx=\"4\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_4\">This comes after\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/nfl\/patrick-mahomes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Patrick Mahomes<\/a>&#8216; mom, Randi, voiced her support for Trump ahead of Monday night&#8217;s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Arrowhead Stadium.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sportskeeda-embed\" data-src=\"embed\">\n<div class=\"sk-embed-wrapper\" data-embed-type=\"tweet\">\n<div class=\"sk-embed-container\">\n<div class=\"sk-embed-content\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Exclusive to <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Outkick?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@outkick<\/a>: Patrick Mahomes\u2019 mom, Randi Mahomes <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/tootgail?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@tootgail<\/a>, with a special message for America on Election Eve: \u201cMake America great again, let\u2019s do it!\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/9JkGjZicjw\">pic.twitter.com\/9JkGjZicjw<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Clay Travis (@ClayTravis) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ClayTravis\/status\/1853589357472469455?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 5, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h2>Who does Patrick Mahomes support in the 2024 U.S. Presidential election?<\/h2>\n<p data-idx=\"5\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_5\">Unlike other NFL stars, Patrick Mahomes has not publicly endorsed any candidate in the 2024 Presidential election.
