Harrison Butker, the Kansas City Chiefs kicker, recently delivered a polarizing speech that sparked outrage and raised concerns about the NFL's stance on diversity and inclusion. Butker, who has been with the Chiefs since 2017, used his platform as a guest speaker at a conservative youth conference to denounce LGBTQ rights and President Joe Biden.
In a leaked transcript of Butker's speech, he condemned the NFL's effort to promote diversity initiatives, claiming that it violated his religious beliefs. He also criticized President Biden for his support of the LGBTQ community, accusing him of undermining American values.
