Former Denver Broncos tight end Jake Butt has decided that he will not play for the Chicago Bears—or any team for that matter—in 2021 or beyond. The former fifth-round pick of the Broncos in the 2017 NFL Draft has retired, per Field Yates.
Butt’s time with the Denver Broncos was not what anybody would have hoped, especially himself. He played in just eight games in two years with the team. During that time, he caught 10 passes for 90 yards.
Injuries, unfortunately, put a hold on Butt’s career, as he tore his ACL three times, including the 2018 season in which he managed to play in three games.
