Shines on ground in Week 8 loss
RBBC
July 28, 2025
Butler rushed 16 times for 115 yards and two touchdowns and brought in one of three targets for minus-1 yard in the Lions' 37-33 loss to the Tiger-Cats on Sunday night.
ANALYSIS
Butler opened the scoring with a three-yard touchdown run in the first quarter, and he'd added a five-yard score before the period was over. The veteran back also rattled off multiple chunk gains on the ground on his way to his third 100-yard effort of the season. The close loss also marked Butler's first multi-touchdown tally in 2025, and he'll head into the Week 9 bye having already compiled 620 rushing yards and five TDs at 5.5 yards per carry while adding a 22-178 receiving line over eight games.
