Serena Williams and Quinta Brunson savagely roasted Harrison Butker during the 2024 ESPYs while he was most likely in the room

During Thursday night’s 2024 ESPYs ceremony, show host Serena Williams and Abbott Elementary mastermind Quinta Brunson absolutely roasted Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker while he was in the room.

Butker attended this year’s ESPYs show in Los Angeles, where his deeply controversial commencement speech featuring misogynistic and homophobic sentiments ignited the sports world.

As Venus Williams talked about how fans can enjoy women’s sports without reservation, Serena Williams chimed in that Butker isn’t needed in this important push. Brunson quickly agreed.

This was particularly devastating since Butker was most likely in the room since he was on the event’s red carpet.

"So, go ahead and enjoy women's sports like you would any other sports, because they are sports." – Venus Williams

"Except you, Harrison Butker. We don't need you." – Serena Williams

"At all. Like, ever." – Quinta Brunson #ESPYS pic.twitter.com/RhvxfiHUWN

Here’s proof that Butker, indeed, was at this year’s ESPYs and most likely took this burn from Serena Williams and Brunson from his seat in real time.

Whew. That’s absolutely brutal. We’re sure Butker wasn’t thrilled about that very pointed dig, but then again, airing your feelings in a public space is how Butker landed in this situation.
