Professional career

Butts was immediately used as a starter, for the Chargers. On December 17, 1989, late in his rookie season, he rushed for 176 yards against the Kansas City Chiefs on a Chargers record 39 carries. He led the team (Chargers and Patriots) in rushing his first six seasons. He gained a career-best 1,225 yards in 1990, finishing third in the NFL in rushing yards, despite missing the final two games of the season due to injury. He was elected to the 1990 Pro Bowl.[1] In the 1992 playoffs, Butts rushed 15 times for 119 yards and 1 touchdown against the Chiefs, setting the franchise records with 7.9 yards per carry.[2]

In 1994, citing the new salary cap, as well as declining numbers due to a string of injuries, the Chargers traded Butts to the Patriots for a third- and a fifth-round pick.[3]

gollark: Yes, I'm aware, but if your TEA thing is exploitable somehow, then someone can probably use that to log in, since you authenticate that way.
gollark: Huh, I did *not* know that `>>>` was a JS operator which existed.
gollark: I'm not sure if your "iterate through all the keys and try decryption" thing is broken somehow, I'm not really a cryptographer.
gollark: This is *also* used for authentication, so it actually might worsen security even if TLS is used too.
gollark: Too bad.
