This is the second straight year that Butler has gotten an invite to a rookie mini-camp. Last year he was invited to the Pittsburgh Steelers mini-camp.

Butler played college football at California University and was a 2016 first-team All-PSAC West selection at tight end and a third-team Don Hansen Football Gazette NCAA Division II All-Super Region selection this past season.

After missing all but one game in 2015 because of an injury, Butler returned to health in 2016 and had 14 catches for 172 yards and two touchdowns for the PSAC Champion Vulcans, who qualified for the NCAA Division II playoffs.
