Wil Lutz had a wonderful career for the New Orleans Saints but that era has come to an end, as he was traded to the the Denver Broncos to reunite with Sean Payton before Tuesday’s roster cuts deadline. Lutz shared an emotional goodbye to the city and its fans on Instagram after the news was announced.
Lutz spent seven years in New Orleans, playing for six seasons. He made 165 field goals on 195 attempts. He is second on the franchise all-time scoring list, adding 268 extra point kicks. The biggest kick of his career came against the Houston Texans as he put a 58-yard field goal through the uprights to walk the game off.
He will be in a great new environment in Denver, as the altitude has always been kicker friendly. As for the Saints, they will roll with rookie Blake Grupe.
