Cameras caught some boos from the Buffalo Bills crowd during a moment of silence for Charlie Kirk ahead of their win over the Miami Dolphins at Highmark Stadium on Thursday night.
The Bills moved to 3-0 following the ‘Thursday Night Football’ fixture, beating their AFC East rivals 31-21 in a game that was tighter than the scoreline suggests, as the Dolphins were still in it late in the fourth quarter, with a red zone INT dismantling their push for their first win of the season.
The Bills observed a moment for Charlie Kirk before kick-off, and it doesn’t appear that fans cared much for it. Boos were even heard ringing from the crowd. One female fan in a Josh Allen jersey was even caught giving the tribute a big thumbs down.
A video showing as much has gone viral on Twitter/X this weekend. You can check it out right below:
“Insanity. Pray for our nation. Christ is King,” someone commented.
“They’ll get what’s coming to them. We can’t do god’s work ourselves. He will do what must be done,” said another.
Charlie Kirk Honored Across The League
Kirk was killed in a brazen act of violence while speaking at Utah Valley University on Wednesday, September 10. He sustained a single gunshot wound to the neck, with a shooter believed to have hit him from over 100 meters away.
One suspect, Utah resident Tyler Robinson, is in custody, having given himself up two days later.
NFL teams have been paying tribute to the late conservative activist with such moments before games, although some have come under fire for not doing so.
