New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz has been named the NFC Special Teams Player of the Week for Week 5, following a perfect performance in his team’s win over the Los Angeles Chargers.
Lutz went 3-for-3 on field goal tries from distances of 48, 53, and 36 yards out. He also converted all three of his extra-point kicks in the 30-27 victory. Not bad for someone who received his first Pro Bowl nod last season.
It’s the seventh time Lutz has received this award in five years in the NFL, most recently for his efforts in 2019’s season-opener against the Houston Texans.
