The Chiefs added Harrison Butker to their injury report on Thursday and it looks like it will be some time before he’s back in their lineup.
Butker was added to the report with a left knee injury and multiple reports indicate that he’ll be placed on injured reserve. That would mean Butker will miss at least the next four games.
Those reports indicate that the Chiefs will sign Spencer Shrader off of the Jets’ practice squad to replace Butker on the roster. Shrader made two field goals for the Jets in last weekend’s loss to the Jets and he made three extra points in a game for the Colts earlier this season.
Shrader replaced Greg Zuerlein as the Jets’ kicker. They have Anders Carlson on their practice squad and he will presumably kick for them against the Colts this week.
Butker is 18-of-20 on field goals and 21-of-22 on extra points so far this season.
I heard he was out this weekend from the radio. But they did not say why. This sub is where I come to first, so thank you for posting this.
Best we could do?
I can’t help but feel like there were better options I mean he hasn’t really played much in the NFL but he was pretty dang bad in college I feel like maybe Rodrigo Blankenship would be a better option
Didn’t we poach Butker from the Panthers’ practice squad when he was a relative unknown? Maybe lighting will strike twice!
Not sure how I never noticed before today that Butker is 6’4
Is he pretty good? Like not looking for Butker level but like he can hit a 45 yarder? Just hoping this doesn’t cost us games
Butker got hurt in 2022 and won a chip.. so I hope that happens again this yr lol 😭🤞🙏
