PITTSFORD – He exits the locker room, alone, and heads up the stairs toward Haffey Hall for lunch. No fans shout his name. No reporters ask for an interview. Nobody has a clue who Mario Butler is.
To the outside world, the Buffalo Bills cornerback is a cog in the NFL machine. One of 90. An undrafted pro on his third team in five years clinging to dear NFL life.
His eyes are warm, welcoming, and a magnetic personality draws you in to tag along.
Butler says he’s from Jacksonville, Fla. He’s married with two kids, ages 2 and 7, and is one of six siblings himself.
