Lutz seems to be in danger of missing his first game this season as he nurses a hip injury, the details of which are unknown at this point. If he can't practice in full Friday, he'll likely end up carrying an injury designation into the weekend.
Lutz appears to be dealing with a hip injury, but his ability to log a limited session Wednesday seems to suggest it's a minor issue. His status at Denver's final two practices of the week is worth monitoring and their final injury report before the team's Week 13 matchup with the Texans will come Friday.
Lutz was perfect on kicking tries for the second straight week, continuing his strong 2023 season. The veteran kicker connected on field goals from 23 and 34 yards out in the contest and has now made at least two field goals in seven of 11 games. With Denver's offense showing significant progress in recent weeks, Lutz should continue to see opportunities in scoring position when the Broncos visit the Texans in Week 13.
Lutz was heavily involved Sunday, as the veteran kicker accounted for 15 of the Broncos' 21 points in the contest. The 29-year-old continued his stellar 2023 campaign and has now made 22 of his 24 field-goal tries this season. This 92 percent success rate is a drastic improvement over his 2022 performance, in which he connected on just 74 percent of his field-goal attempts. Lutz will look to carry this momentum into a Week 12 matchup with the Browns.
Lutz continued his perfect streak on kicking tries despite failing to attempt a single kick in Week 6. The veteran kicker connected on field goals from 29, 32, 35 and 52 yards out in the contest and was responsible for 13 of the Broncos' 19 points Sunday. Lutz will look to build off this impressive performance in a Week 8 rematch against the Chiefs.
