News

  • Ready to play Sunday

    Butler (illness) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans.

    Analysis: Butler was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday and was originally considered questionable for Sunday, but he was quickly able to shed the injury designation. The 27-year-old has 16 total tackles and two sacks while filling a rotational role on Miami's defensive line this season.

  • Off COVID-19 list, status uncertain

    Butler (illness) was removed from the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday. He's still listed as questionable with a non COVID-19 related illness for Sunday's game against the Titans, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: The 27-year-old has been a quality depth piece along the defensive line and should continue to reprise that role provided he's able to shake the aforementioned illness.

  • Placed on COVID-19 list

    Butler (illness) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday after testing positive for the Virus, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Butler's addition to the COVID list would be a blow to the Dolphins' defensive-line depth if he were to miss Sunday against Tennessee. The five-year pro can clear protocols in time if he is vaccinated and able to produce two negative tests more than 24 hours apart.

  • Joining division rival

    Butler (thigh) and the Dolphins came to terms Wednesday on a two-year contract, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Head coach Brian Flores has poached a number of his former Patriots players since joining Miami, and Butler becomes the latest to join the list. The soon-to-be 27-year-old proved himself as a reliable rotational pass rusher in New England, and though he doesn't thrive against the run, he's capable of bolstering the interior of the defensive line when needed. He dealt with a thigh injury late in 2020, but it doesn't appear that his offseason availability will be affected.

  • Thigh injury arises Week 17

    Butler (thigh) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Jets, Zack Cox of NESN.com reports.

    Analysis: Depth along the interior defensive line will be depleted as long as Butler is unavailable after he exited in the fourth quarter with four tackles and a sack to his ledger. Butler has now registered four sacks since Week 12, but Akeem Spence may have to step into a more integral role at defensive tackle if the 26-year-old proves unable to return.

  • Third sack in four games

    Butler made four tackles (two solo) and a sack in Sunday's 22-12 loss to the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Butler rang up six sacks last season, but he started the 2020 season on a brutal cold streak. Through the first 10 games, Butler failed to post a sack. He has turned it around of late, posting three sacks over the last four games, adding 15 tackles in that stretch. Butler will look to finish on a high note with games against the Bills and the Jets to close out the season.

  • Cleared for Week 13

    Butler (shoulder) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Chargers.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old was held to limited participation during Friday's practice, but he's demonstrated enough in pregame warmups to get the nod for a crucial Week 13 showdown. Butler earned his second start of the 2020 campaign last Sunday against the Cardinals, also notching his first sack of the season during that contest.

  • Won't play Sunday

    Butler has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Houston with a shoulder injury.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old was limited at practice all week and was originally considered questionable, but he was downgraded to out Saturday. Tashawn Bower and Isaiah Mack could have increased roles Sunday in Butler's absence.

  • Ready to play Sunday

    Butler (elbow) is active for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

    Analysis: Butler practiced in a limited fashion all week to earn the questionable tag, but he's good to go for Week 7. The 26-year-old should play his usual role up front for New England's defense.

  • Declared questionable for Sunday

    Butler (elbow) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the 49ers.

    Analysis: Butler maintained limited participation all week in practice, so he's trending in the right direction. He's expected to start at defensive end if he's active, but Deatrich Wise is in line to take over if Butler can't go.

  • Leaves game Sunday

    Butler (elbow) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Denver.

    Analysis: Butler has played every game this season despite managing a shoulder problem, but he appears to be dealing with a new issue. As long as Butler is sidelined, Lawrence Guy and Deatrich Wise are the only healthy defensive ends on the roster for Sunday's game.

  • Good to go Monday

    Butler (shoulder) is active for Monday's game versus the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Butler will avoid missing his first game since entering the league as an undrafted free agent in 2017. He's handled a consistent role on the Patriots' defensive line this season and has recorded eight total tackles.

  • Questionable for Sunday's game

    Butler (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: This is Butler's third straight week on the injury report with a shoulder issue, and he's been able to play through it so far, recording five tackles over the last two weeks. If Butler ends up missing time, expect Deatrich Wise to bump into a starting role.

  • Ready for Week 2

    Butler (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Butler was limited in practice due to a shoulder injury all week, but he's managed to get healthy in time to face Seattle. He'll handle his usual rotational role along New England's defensive line.

  • Considered questionable

    The Patriots have listed Butler (shoulder) as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Butler was limited at practice all week, rendering his questionable designation as not all that surprising. Deatrich Wise would be in line for increased snaps should Butler ultimately get ruled out.

  • Officially signs tender

    Butler signed his restricted free agent tender with the Patriots on Friday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: While Butler only started two games in 2019, he was still a key piece of interior pressure for the Patriots' defense, amassing six sacks and nine quarterback hits across 16 games last season. The second-round tender will pay the 25-year-old defensive tackle $3.26 million in 2020.

  • Receives second-round tender

    The Patriots applied a second-round tender to Butler on Monday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Butler is a restricted free agent, so New England can now receive compensation should another team sign him via an offer sheet. The 25-year-old had 26 tackles (17 solo), six sacks and five passes defensed in 2019, and he has yet to miss a regular-season contest over his first three seasons.

  • Adds to sack total in win

    Butler posted a sack during Sunday's 17-10 win over the Eagles.

    Analysis: Butler, 25, only has 16 tackles on the year, but he's racked up 5.5 sacks in 10 games. Because he does most of his damage in opposing backfields, Butler's value in IDP formats cannot be understated, but his role in New England does have a limited scope, which does impact his fantasy ceiling.
