Several NFL teams did not pay tribute to Charlie Kirk with moments of silence or specific memorials during the Week 2 games following his tragic killing. The teams identified as not holding such tributes include:
- Baltimore Ravens
- Cincinnati Bengals
- Detroit Lions
- Indianapolis Colts
- Minnesota Vikings
- Pittsburgh Steelers (no audible tribute but flags were at half-staff)
- Houston Texans (held a moment of silence for all victims of violence and disasters but did not mention Kirk by name)
Teams like the Colts and Vikings provided alternative reasons for their lack of tribute, such as honoring other memorials or victims, while the Texans held a general moment of silence without specific reference to Kirk. Meanwhile, many other teams, including the Dallas Cowboys, New York Jets, Miami Dolphins, New Orleans Saints, Tennessee Titans, Arizona Cardinals, Kansas City Chiefs, and Green Bay Packers, did hold tributes or moments of silence in his honor.
