Money well earned for Harrison Butker. 

The Kansas City Chiefs are signing Harrison Butker to a four year, $25.6-million extension, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

The deal includes $17.75 million guaranteed. This new annual average salary makes him the highest paid kicker in the NFL.

According to Schefter, Butker negotiated the deal on his own behalf. Butker would later confirm he was staying in Kansas City in a post on X.

Butker has been a contributor in each of the Chiefs Super Bowl winning seasons since 2019. He made 94.3% of his field goals and all 38 of his extra points in 2023.

The former Georgia Tech product has made 89.1% of his field goal attempts and 94.5% of his extra point tries since being selected in the seventh round of the 2017 draft. 

Harrison Butker has made some really big kicks since joining the Chiefs. This extension now shows that not only do they trust him, they look to keep him to make even more big kicks.
