Before the “Thursday Night Football” contest between the Packers and Washington Commanders, a moment of silence for Charlie Kirk was mandated by the NFL. Afterwards, the league let franchises make their own decision regarding whether or not they would honor Kirk.

The following teams did not have a tribute for Kirk prior to their latest home games: Las Vegas Raiders, Baltimore Ravens, Houston Texans, Detroit Lions, Cincinnati Bengals, Minnesota Vikings and Indianapolis Colts.

While speaking at an event Sept. 10 at Utah Valley University, Kirk was assassinated. Tyler Robinson, a native of Utah, was charged in the murder of Kirk.

A resolution was passed by the U.S. Senate to declare Oct. 14, 2025, the birthday of Kirk, as a National Day of Remembrance for the founder of Turning Point USA.
