Butker and the Chiefs did not immediately return PEOPLE’s requests for comment. In a statement, the NFL’s Chief Diversity Officer Jonathan Beane says, “Harrison Butker gave a speech in his personal capacity. His views are not those of the NFL as an organization. The NFL is steadfast in our commitment to inclusion, which only makes our league stronger.”

Former Kansas City commissioner Justice Horn went further, slamming Butker in a post on X (formerly known as Twitter). “Harrison Butker doesn’t represent Kansas City nor has he ever,” “Pretty awful to hear an NFL player so proudly tell women to ‘stay in their lane,’ serve their man and make babies. Not to mention comparing Pride month to a ‘deadly sin’ and lobbing bombs at the trans community. Not a fan.”

 

Amid the backlash, below is a breakdown of Butker’s most controversial comments from the speech.
