Broncos Outsmart Saints in Kicker Trade
Update: 2025-11-28
Description
The New Orleans Saints recently released kicker Blake Grupe, who they had signed as an undrafted free agent in 2023. This move highlights a recurring theme: the Denver Broncos seem to consistently get the better end of their trades with the Saints. Earlier, the Saints traded their kicker Wil Lutz to the Broncos for a seventh-round draft pick. Since joining Denver, Lutz has been a game-changer, earning multiple honors and leading the league in game-winning field goals. The Broncos recently awarded him a three-year contract extension. This situation further illustrates the Broncos front offices excellent moves in dealings with the Saints, including a trade for wide receiver Devaughn Vele earlier this year. It seems the Saints might need to reconsider their strategy when making deals with Denvers general manager, George Paton.
