Oakland Raiders

Butler was selected by the Oakland Raiders in the seventh round (209th overall) of the 2013 NFL draft,[2] after running 4.37 seconds in the 40-yard dash in his pro day workout.[3] As a rookie, he appeared in 10 games with 2 starts, tallying 9 receptions for 103 yards in 10 games. He did not have a catch after week 6 and was declared inactive for 5 games.

In 2014, he appeared in 15 games, registering 21 receptions for 280 yards and 2 touchdowns. He recovered a blocked punt for a touchdown against the Seattle Seahawks.

On September 15, 2015, he was traded to the Dallas Cowboys along with a sixth round pick (#189- used for Anthony Brown), in exchange for a fifth round pick (#143- used for DeAndré Washington).[4]

Dallas Cowboys (first stint)

In 2015 the Dallas Cowboys acquired Butler for depth purposes after Dez Bryant was injured in the season opener. He passed Devin Street on the depth chart as the team's fourth wide receiver. Against the New Orleans Saints he had a 67-yard reception but suffered a hamstring injury in the play, which would limit him for six weeks. He played the majority of the final two games, totaling 8 receptions for 134 yards. His most productive game came in the Week 16 against the Buffalo Bills, making 4 receptions for 74 yards. He registered a total of 12 receptions for 258 yards (21.5-yard average) in 7 games.

In 2016, he worked with the first unit during OTAs while Bryant recovered from a broken foot. He started against the San Francisco 49ers in place of an injured Bryant and scored his first touchdown with the Cowboys. He also started against the Cincinnati Bengals and the Green Bay Packers. He was the team's fourth wide receiver, but suffered through inconsistent play and in some games with untimely penalties. He finished with 16 receptions for 219 yards (13.7-yard average) and 3 touchdowns. In the NFC Divisional 31–34 playoffs loss against the Green Bay Packers, he had a rarely called illegal substitution penalty negating a 22-yard play and costing the team an additional 15 yards, and also had a key drop in the end zone.[5]

On March 8, 2017, the Cowboys re-signed Butler to a one-year contract.[6] He had a strong preseason and there was an expectation of him being more of a factor in the offense. In the first 5 games, he collected 207 receiving yards and 2 touchdowns, before suffering a foot injury in practice that forced him to miss 3 games. In the season finale against the Philadelphia Eagles, he a had a 30-yard touchdown reception for the only points in a 6-0 win. He remained as the fourth wide receiver, appearing in 13 games, while making 15 receptions for 317 yards (21.1-yard average) and 3 touchdowns.

Arizona Cardinals

On April 2, 2018, Butler signed a two-year contract with the Arizona Cardinals.[7] He was released by the Cardinals on September 1, 2018.[8]

Dallas Cowboys (second stint)

On September 18, 2018, Butler re-signed with the Cowboys, who were struggling using a wide receiver-by-committee approach, after the release of Dez Bryant.[9] He was released on October 22, to make room for newly acquired wide receiver Amari Cooper.[10]

Miami Dolphins

On November 14, 2018, Butler signed with the Miami Dolphins.[11] He was released during final roster cuts on August 31, 2019.[12]
