K Wil Lutz traded to the Broncos for a 2024 7th round pick

Lutz is no longer a Saints player and we all saw how he kicked the last few seasons, why are people surprised by this move?
Yep. At times, even his “makes” started gettin a lil shaky: They were either low or barely got thru the uprights after “tailing” right or left.

According to STs Coach Darren Rizzi, Grupe got the job because of 1) The enormous power he generates from his leg “backswing” n 2) Because he’s shorter, his big swing is also more “compact”. So as a result, his kicks are consistently higher coming off his foot AND sent splitting the uprights!

No idea how well Grupe will play this year, hell he might end up a bust! But Ima give props to DA for at least trying to upgrade ANY position on da team whenever possible! 👍🏾
