We haven't written about Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker in a while, and we're guessing that's perfectly fine with him. Oh, sure, that was that time in July when Serena Williams tried to score virtue signal points by insulting him at the ESPY's, but that fell pretty flat. Mostly, since Butker made headlines in May by standing up for traditional families and traditional values (and Twitchy was writing about how it was such a big W for him nearly every day), Butker has retreated from the spotlight to focus on being both a husband and father, and also on being the best kicker in the NFL (not named Justin Tucker).
Yesterday, however, three-time Super Bowl champion Butker made news again when the Chiefs gave him a healthy contract extension, making him the highest-paid kicker in the league. A new deal in KC: 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.

Butker himself, who doesn't tweet all that often, posted on Twitter about how grateful and excited he was to be playing with the Chiefs for another several seasons. There’s no place I�.
