Amazing interview. Steadfast love for God is the key🙏🏻. You are the role model for millions of youngsters who are too busy to spend a moment with God🙏🏻

[@MsDaisy173]

Nice article, for the record I said several Rosaries during the Super Bowl.

[@rokofarm]

His strong faith in God puts him grounded, amen!

[@gilesdavis100]

Harrison is the man much respect

[@brucesi]

Great guy... I met Harrison at signing a few years ago. So happy that he's living his best life.

[@hbturner1835]

Great guy & man of faith! Thanks for the Chiefs memories!

[@ChristianChannel]

Blessed Pier Giorgio frassati, pray for him and his family! “To the heights”

[@mizzouranger134]

Met him at training camp several times. Great and genuine man. I could tell he was filled with the Spirit without knowing him

[@bethjeffcoat7543]

Proud Catholic and ProLife all the way here, married to a very active K of C! Very proud to have you as the kicker of my favorite team! You are a great role model!!

[@joeomalley2835]

I really enjoyed this. Butker is a very humble, down to Earth guy. Easy to root for.

[@Wildcat_Nation]

As someone who was greatly inspired to be a kicker because of butker I would say watching the chiefs every Sunday is inspiring and gives hope

[@rubenmartinez4346]

Spoken like a true Catholic! Deus Vult!

[@vallola04]

I went for the chiefs this year with no particular reason, now I know my heart picked up on this team. God bless you

[@redstar8689]

You are the inspiration..the role model for others...gbu

[@creamage.]

my mothers prayers have brought me back to God and faith. I love seeing younf people use their platform to preach the word of God. This is amazing.

[@tristanturner972]

This is what a true man, father, husband should look like. Nobody is perfect by any means but the example that this man is setting for all of these young kids is what this world needs. So happy that he is our kicker.

[@sheilajohnson8154]

[@Bringonsunshine]

You had me at day 1, I've always believed in you Harrison as well as 🙏 for each of you on bad days to hope it helps you not give up! KC sticks together 4-ever❣️♥️💛

[@KentDorfman2024]

I’m a lifelong Chiefs fan and even bigger Butker fan for being a traditional Catholic.

[@darrenhadden1037]

This is a great story. I didn't know this about Harrison. Go Chiefs!

[@deancalico944]

Not just the kicker with "a big leg" LOL, and perfect teeth, but MOST importantly, a "man of faith". Go Chiefs!!!!!!

[@thefreeman8791]

“To the heights”. Or as our Kansas state motto says, to the stars through hardships.

[@michaelkelly3239]

All the best to you and your family, Mr. Butker. My last retreat was too many years ago. I remember each day as if it was yesterday. I shall do this again and soon as your words were most inspiring. I think I was directed to your full interview, as I am not a very knowledgable sports person. But I must admit once I have finished watching you and the other members of the Kansas City Chiefs, win or lose; I feel I owe someone something! If you listen around to many (similar and different views from your own) the illogic agend-driven sources show themselves clearly, manifest a bit of physical irritability, and typically are single sourced. And when the decision is not clear, one should ask questions and indeed pray and fervently for guidance. It doesn't take living very long to recognize your own failings. We all need help and I will always ask for it before listening to my own arrogance or worse. Nestled in this paragraph is my concurrence with your comments on gun control vs a tradition family struture. There may be other partial remedies, but your thoughts ring true in my mind as a first step. I have spoken nearly daily to many (a very broad collection that I would confidently state is random) and the vast majority agree with your thoughts on the family structure. Keep the Faith, Mr. Butker! Mike

[@galaxyview2783]

Paris Buckner and Tommy Thompson the best putt kickers😎

[@tedlee2861]

Hold strong in you're belief Harrison and way to kick it. 🙏🤣👈👍🌜🤔

[@mexicanlord2934]

God is great

[@myronmercado]

How do you stay grounded? - prayer.

[@richardthornhill4630]

Good to be an effective witness of Jesus Christ in an existential world of "now."

[@j2ko1]

Two best football kickers in the league are Catholic!! That’s what’s up! Can this be a lower “t” tradition

[@mikeknight7331]

Always good to announce and promote Catholicism and our Lord Jesus

[@csb78nm]

Good for Harrison. It seems more people are afraid to talk about their faith then a single sports accomplishment. I think I'd rather be remembered for my soul and not my sole (or foot in general).

[@gigigraves3798]

Him is child the God

[@jayusa879]

Phil. 4:13

[@ictguy455]

Colts fan here I like this guy, I like the Chiefs. Close to my hometown. I wish they would have all been alittle more professional and kept the alcohol drinking under control in the view of young eyes. Just sayin

[@jamesclapp6832]

I keep hearing about this but I haven't really found it. Well, Kelce but he's normally out of his mind😜

[@ckmoore101]

I lost my own faith years ago, but I still have respect for those that believe, and also recognize that a society "under God" (how we started) is a better society, than not (where we are).

[@NotMyActualName_]

Jesus is the all time scorer in the NFL according to kickers

[@eliasbutcher859]

I think he should change his prayer from “whatever happens, make or miss” to “thank you for all the makes” Let’s not put misses in our prayer 😂

[@FLEX.609]

🟨🟥🏆🏆🏆🟥🟨

[@catholicjoe4948]

He is Look like captain America No he is the real captain America ❤

[@lenawilliams539]

I just saw on X that this player was doxxed for expressing his views. I pray he and his family are safe.

[@erniecorleto]

the tangible belief, [not that I'm denying God] I'm not, is that a billion dollar racket has corruption, yes it's a game, but it's also entertainment, showcased heroes or champions make you feel good, we all get it, but when it's not earned, and there's foul play, how can a man of "God" feel so good inside, his heart is developed but his mind isn't? lol

[@matthewburns1012]

Sadly he believes in the the false doctrine that Mother Mary is to be honored.

[@MichaelSmith-ym2rz]

A great sign appeared in the sky, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon beneath her feet and a crown of twelve stars upon her head. Rev 12:1

[@jeoida8669]

Never talk about something you don't really know.. GBU

[@grimsum4916]

Did you hear that philly fans? God wanted you to lose the Super Bowl

[@imrango6543]

lmao

[@Reaperx420]

🤮🤢🤮

[@dontraylor4476]

Harrison, you are truly our Brother in Christ! God is with you and your family. God Speed!

[@philippetersen64]

Give me a freakin break. Over the top. With God he shouldn’t need all that practice
