He came out and he kicked and then the other kid did well too. We’ve just got to wait and see. He’s a little sore today, so we’re not going to kick him today.""We’re trying to get him ready for the game... It’s going to come right down to the end when we have to make that decision on who is going to be up and who is going to be down.”Hayley Lewis 👑@HayleyLewisKSHBHarrison Butker back at practice today, first time we've seen him putting in work since Week 1.
