Jake Luton News
The New Orleans Saints signed quarterback Jake Luton to their 53-man roster from their practice squad on Tuesday. Luton's signing is a good indication that the team is preparing to be without starting quarterback Derek Carr (shoulder) for the near future. Luton will serve as the team's backup QB while Jameis Winston runs the offense in Week 4 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Fantasy managers relying on Carr should be making alternate plans at the quarterback position heading into this weekend.
Carolina Panthers quarterback Jake Luton has been elevated from the practice squad ahead of the team's Week 3 contest against the Seattle Seahawks. This move makes sense with rookie starter Bryce Young (ankle) being ruled out from this game. Veteran QB Andy Dalton will start under center and Luton will back him up on Sunday. The Seahawks D/ST was a popular streaming option before Young was ruled out but should see even more of a roster increase with Dalton starting.
The Panthers waived quarterback Jake Luton on Saturday. The 2020 sixth-round pick has appeared in only three regular season games throughout his career, all with the Jaguars, before trying to earn a spot with the Seahawks, Dolphins, and Saints through the years. Luton went 8-for-19 for 115 yards, one touchdown, and one interception this preseason. However, he completed only 42.1% of his throws. Carolina has Bryce Young, Andy Dalton, and Matt Corral on the depth chart, so Luton needed a miracle to make the team, even if he had played better. But the former Oregon State Beaver is back to looking for a new team, although he isn't expected to be worth anything to fantasy managers anytime soon, if ever.
