Dick Butkus shared a great post on X Thursday in which he trolled his former divisional rivals.
Butkus tweeted about his excitment for Thursday night’s NFL kickoff game. However, he wasn’t so thrilled about the Lions being a part of it.
“I got excited that the NFL starts today… but then I realized it’s the Detroit Lions…,” Butkus humorously wrote.

The Lions, who went 9-8 last season, will be visiting the defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday night.
Butkus played for the Chicago Bears from 1965-1973. The Hall of Fame linebacker made the Pro Bowl in his first eight seasons and was known for his toughness. He continues to bring the heat — and the laughs — even in retirement. Last year, he had plenty of jokes for the Green Bay Packers.
