He played behind Guy and Shelton in 2019 in terms of snaps, but Butler was proficient and earned a role above Michael Bennett, which ultimately led to his departure from the team. Butler has been steadily improving over his first few years in the NFL, and if he continues on this trajectory, he could be a special role-playing interior rusher and maybe even a full-time starter.
