Malcolm Butler Mega Thread

Butler already answered this, when asked what Belichick saw that led to the benching he said Belichick” saw a player that wasn’t ready.”

My diagnosis:
“Next contract” and “ scorned lover” syndromes consumed his every fiber and he ended up in a dark place when it became clear to him that NE would not be part of his future despite past heroics

It's amazing that he held onto that ball, even after Hightower almost knocked it out of his hands. He drops that ball and it's beastmode time and history is changed.
If I ever see Butler, I'll convey my appreciation.

He was my favorite player

Immediately after the Super Bowl, it would have been fair to wonder if Butler’s 2017 season had cost him tens of millions of dollars. It’s obviously a lighter subject now that we know he got paid for his 2016 performance in spite of 2017.

We'll know what really happened to Epstein before we know why Butler was benched.

Then again, I will always summarize Butler's NFL legacy by "MALCOM, GO!"

And nothing else. Wait.... If you're really caught up in SB52, then it's...




"MALCOM, DON'T GO" - sorry had to lmao.

Looks like we will just have to wait for Marquis Flowers to retire...

So he wasn’t trying to lay down a bunt, cuz that would’ve been okay.

Who?

Malcolm should be eternally grateful to BB. He made a few millions in NE and signed a life changing contract with the Titans.

If he was drafted by any other team, chances are (big chances) he wouldn't make past his 1st training camp.
