Harrison Butker is being blasted for quoting “Bejeweled.”

Former Kansas City Chiefs star Mitch Schwartz’s wife, Brooke Schwartz, slammed the team’s kicker for using Taylor Swift’s lyrics in his sexist, anti-LGBTQ commencement speech.

Butker spoke to the female students about being “homemakers” like his wife, Isabelle Butker, with Brooke likening his address to “The Handmaid’s Tale” in her Instagram Story response.

“I’m going to sound controversial since Mitch was teammates with him for many years,” she said. “I’ve stayed quiet about a lot of things, but this is absolutely so gross and backwards to me.

“This is what we’re telling young women graduating college?” Brooke continued. “That the most important thing they can become is a homemaker?”
