  • Tries out with the Dolphins

    The Dolphins worked out Butler on Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Butler was last let go from New England with an injury settlement in August, but his recent workout in Miami suggests he's moved past the undisclosed injury that landed him on IR. The 32-year-old will now wait for another opportunity for snaps in the NFL, as he hasn't suited up in a game since his 2020 tenure with the Titans.

  • Let go by Patriots

    The Patriots released Butler (undisclosed) from injured reserve with an injury settlement Thursday, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.

    Analysis: The veteran cornerback landed on IR earlier this month after suffering an undisclosed injury. It remains to be seen if the 32-year-old resurfaces with another team, but following Thursday's transaction, that's a possibility for Butler if he can prove he's healthy.

  • Lands on IR

    Butler (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Butler, who spent the first four years of his career in New England, joined the Cardinals last season after three years in Tennessee, but he ultimately decided to retire without playing a regular season game for Arizona. He returned to the Patriots on a two-year deal in March with expectations that he'd compete for a starting gig. Now Butler will be forced to miss a second straight season, this time due to an undisclosed injury. The 32-year-old did play in the Patriots' preseason loss to the…read more

  • Returns to Foxboro

    Butler agreed Wednesday with the Patriots on a two-year deal worth up to $9 million, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: After a one-year retirement, the 32-year-old cornerback will return to the NFL with the team he played with from 2014 through 2017. In his last game with the Patriots, Butler was benched in the team's Super Bowl LII loss to the Eagles, seeing just one special teams snap in the contest. Now that he's back with New England, Butler will have a chance to claim a starting role in cornerback corps that also includes Jalen Mills and Jonathan Jones.

  • Parts ways with Arizona

    Butler was released from the reserve/retired list by the Cardinals on Thursday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Butler decided to retire before the start of the 2021 campaign after signing with Arizona last spring, but he's apparently considering resuming his career after taking a year off. The veteran cornerback figures to receive a fair amount of interest as a free agent should he opt for a comeback.

  • Opts for retirement

    The Cardinals placed Butler on the reserve/retired list Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: A report from Mike Garafolo of NFL Network emerged Monday that Butler was mulling retirement as he tends to a personal matter. Indeed, Butler has opted for that route, thus saving the Cardinals a spot on the 53-man roster. In his stead, it appears the team plans to roll with Byron Murphy and Robert Alford (undisclosed) as its top two cornerbacks.

  • Thinking about retirement

    Butler is considering retirement as he deals with a personal matter, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The Cardinals brought Butler in on a one-year deal to reinforce their group of cornerbacks following the departure of Patrick Peterson. Over seven pro seasons, Butler has been a regular starter for the past six, averaging 70.3 tackles and 3.1 interceptions per 16 games played. Now that he's dealing with an off-the-field issue, though, he's considering walking away from football entirely.

  • Replacing Peterson in Arizona

    Butler is signing a one-year contract with the Cardinals, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Released by the Titans earlier this month, Butler lands on his feet in an Arizona defense that's desperately in need of cornerback help. The Cardinals recently lost Patrick Peterson to the Vikings, leaving 32-year-old Robert Alford and 23-year-old Byron Murphy as their top options at the position. Butler is also on the older side (31) for an NFL cornerback, but he's coming off a solid 2020 season with 100 tackles (86 solo), 14 pass defenses and four interceptions in 16 games. While the gaudy…read more

  • Let go by Titans

    The Titans released Butler on Tuesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: This transaction will free up $10.2 million in cap space for the Titans in 2021. The 31-year-old cornerback started all 16 games in 2020, registering 100 tackles, 14 pass breakups and four interceptions while allowing 873 yards (6.9 yard per target) and five touchdowns in coverage.

  • Leader in Titans' secondary

    Butler recorded 100 tackles, one tackle for loss, 14 passes defensed and four interceptions across 16 games in the 2020 regular season.

    Analysis: Butler had his best season as a Titan, in part because he was fully healthy after dealing with a broken wrist last season. He played in more than 95 percent of defensive snaps in all but one game this season and tied his career-best mark with four interceptions. While Butler has two years remaining on his deal, it's possible the team parts ways with him, as it would cost the Titans just $4 million in dead cap.

  • Snares fourth interception

    Butler recorded six tackles and one interception in Week 16 against the Packers.

    Analysis: Butler pulled off the rare feat of intercepting Aaron Rodgers for his fourth pick of the season. It came early in the fourth quarter and led to a Tennessee drive that could have tightened the game significantly. Butler continues to play a key role in the team's defense, staying on the field for at least 95 percent of the defensive snaps in every game since Week 6.

  • Leads way with eight tackles

    Butler recorded eight tackles in Week 13 against the Browns.

    Analysis: Butler led the team with eight tackles but failed to make any further impact. He was a constant presence, logging a 97 percent snap rate. For the season, Butler has remained on the field for at least 95 percent of defensive snaps in all but one contest. He should continue to play a major role in the Titans' Week 14 matchup against the Jaguars.

  • Pair of picks

    Butler recorded seven tackles, one tackle for a loss and two interceptions in Week 5 against the Bills.

    Analysis: Butler finished second on the team in tackles, his second highest mark of the season. However, he made his mark on the game with two interceptions, including his first of the campaign. The first came on the Bills' initial offensive possession, which set up a short touchdown drive for the Titans. His second pick came late in the third quarter and he turned up field for a 68-yard return -- setting up another score for Tennessee. Butler has been active in coverage early this season, racking up six…read more

  • Set to play Sunday

    Butler (quadriceps) is active Week 2 against Jacksonville.

    Analysis: Butler missed practice Friday and was considered questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Jaguars, but it appears he'll give it a go. Should any type of in-game setback occur, rookie Kristian Fulton would be in line to take on extra snaps.

  • Questionable for Week 2

    Butler (quadriceps) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Paul Kuharsky of 104.5 The Zone Nashville reports.

    Analysis: Butler was added to Thursday's injury report as a limited participant, so the fact that he sat out practice entirely Friday could hint of a setback. Rookie second-round pick Kristian Fulton will be the favorite to slot into the starting lineup if Butler isn't able to suit up against Jacksonville.

  • Late injury add

    Butler (quadriceps) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports.

    Analysis: The specifics surrounding the injury remain unclear, however, the fact that Butler was a late addition is certainly not a great sign. The 30-year-old was solid in Week 1, only surrendering 21 yards on three receptions in situations when he was the primary defender. If Butler fails to suit up in Week 2 against Jacksonville, Kristian Fulton or Chris Jackson would likely be in line for a start.

  • Set for second year in Tennessee

    Butler (wrist) likely will operate as the Titans' No. 1 outside corner in 2020, Joe Rexrode of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Logan Ryan moved on to free agency and Adoree' Jackson is expected to see more nickel work, leaving Butler as the clear No. 1 option on the outside. Tennessee also brought in veteran Johnathan Joseph and drafted Kristian Fulton in the second round of April's draft, while Butler is looking for a rebound season after missing the final two months of 2019 with a fractured wrist.

  • Moves to injured reserve

    Butler (wrist) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Analysis: Butler fractured his wrist during Sunday's 30-20 loss to the Panthers and was already considered to be in danger of missing the rest of the season, so the move to IR isn't overly surprising. Adoree' Jackson and LeShaun Sims should be more heavily relied upon at cornerback for the Titans.

  • In danger of missing season

    Coach Mike Vrabel said Monday that Butler (wrist) "may be lost for the season," John Glennon of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Butler suffered a broken wrist during Sunday's 30-20 loss to the Panthers while attempting to break up a touchdown catch by wide receiver Curtis Samuel. The 29-year-old is already ruled out against the Chiefs in Week 10, per Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com, and he appears to be in serious of missing significant time or being placed on IR. LeShaun Sims filled in for Butler at cornerback during Sunday's loss, and stands to continue seeing an expanded role in his absence.

  • Breaks wrist

    Butler suffered a broken wrist during Sunday's 30-20 loss to the Panthers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Butler will undergo more tests to determine the severity of the injury. He's likely in danger of missing the rest of the season, which would leave LeShaun Sims to handle an expanded role at cornerback.

  • Out with wrist injury

    Butler won't return to Sunday's game at Carolina after suffering a wrist injury, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Analysis: Butler unofficially had two passes defensed before exiting the game. Adoree Jackson and LeShaun Sims should see increased snaps in his absence.
