Carolina Panthers

[edit | edit source]

Butler was selected 89th overall in the third round of the 2006 NFL draft by the Carolina Panthers.[4] Thought to be a project due to his relative light weight for an NFL offensive tackle,[5] he was inactive for his rookie year. He actually lost weight and was cut by the Panthers after 2007 training camp.

Houston Texans

[edit | edit source]

After signing with the Texans, he was discovered to suffer from ulcerative colitis, a chronic medical condition which prevented him from bulking up. Under medical care, Butler was able to regain the lost weight relatively quickly.[6]

Butler did not appear in any games for the Texans in 2008. A restricted free agent in the 2009 offseason, Butler signed his one-year tender offer from the Texans on April 7.[7]

Cleveland Browns

[edit | edit source]

Butler signed with the Cleveland Browns on May 8, 2013.[8]

Pittsburgh Steelers

[edit | edit source]

Butler signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers on November 30, 2013.[9] He left the Steelers two days later on December 2, 2013, for personal reasons.[10]
