Panthers' Jake Luton: Joins active roster
Luton was elevated to the Panthers' active roster Saturday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
The moves comes with starter Bryce Young (ankle) ruled out for Sunday's game against the Seahawks. Luton joined the Panthers' practice squad Wednesday after being let go by the team at the end of training camp. He will serve as the backup for Andy Dalton for Week 3 and could stay in that role for an additional week or two depending on how Young progresses through his rehab.

Jake Luton: Returns to Carolina
Luton signed with the Panthers' practice squad Wednesday, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.
Luton was waived by the team just before rosters were trimmed down to 53 in August. With Bryce Young dealing with an ankle injury, the Oregon State product will likely serve as an option behind Andy Dalton, if Young were to miss, as Carolina didn't previously have a third quarterback on its practice squad or active roster.

Jake Luton: Let go by Panthers
Luton was waived by the Panthers on Saturday, Darin Gantt of the team's official website reports.
Luton was the No. 4 quarterback on the Panthers' roster during training camp behind Bryce Young, Andy Dalton (back) and Matt Corral. Thus, he was considered a long shot to land on the team's final 53-man roster. It remains to be seen if he will need to look for a new opportunity elsewhere or if he will get a chance to join Carolina's practice squad.

Jake Luton: Let go by New Orleans
The Saints waived Luton on Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Luton spent last season with New Orleans' practice squad and signed a reserve/future contract with them in January. However, the Saints no longer had a need for the 27-year-old after signing Derek Carr and drafting Jake Haener in the fourth round of the 2023 draft, so Luton will now look for another opportunity elsewhere.

Saints' Jake Luton: Sticks with New Orleans
The Saints signed Luton to a reserve/future contract Tuesday.
Luton joined the Saints' practice squad after being waived by Jacksonville at the end of August. The backup quarterback was up and down between New Orleans' practice squad and active roster throughout the campaign, getting cut entirely on two separate occasions, but he never made any appearances. With his new contract, he'll have an opportunity to compete for a roster spot throughout offseason work and leading up to training camp in 2023.

Jake Luton: Returns to Saints' practice squad
The Saints re-signed Luton to their practice squad Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Luton has been up and down between New Orleans' practice squad and active roster throughout the campaign, so he's already familiar with the organization. Though he was active for two games this season, he has yet to take a snap with the Saints. In fact, Luton hasn't seen NFL game action since 2020 with Jacksonville, so his role is clearly to provide organizational depth in case of an injury to either Andy Dalton or Jameis Winston.

Jake Luton: Let go from practice squad
The Saints cut Luton from their practice squad Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Luton is now looking for another home following the Saints' decision to let the 26-year-old go Tuesday. Luton hasn't seen game action since 2020 with Jacksonville, so he'll likely serve as added depth for his next suitor.

Jake Luton: Back on practice squad
Luton signed with the Saints' practice squad Tuesday.
Luton was signed to the team's active roster from its practice squad Oct. 1; however, after the team's wide receiver corps was depleted by injuries, Luton lost his spot on the team to make room for practice squad elevations.

Jake Luton: Cut by New Orleans
The Saints waived Luton on Saturday.
Due to the depleted state of its wide-receiving corps and secondary, the Saints couldn't afford to keep Luton on the 53-man roster as a No. 3 quarterback behind Jameis Winston (back/ankle) and Andy Dalton. Though Dalton will make his third straight start Sunday against the Bengals, Winston -- who is listed as questionable -- may be healthy enough to dress as his backup. Even if Winston ends up inactive, the Saints would still have the jack-of-all-trades Taysom Hill on hand to step in at quarterback if something should happen to Dalton on Sunday.

Saints' Jake Luton: Signed to active roster
Luton was signed to the Saints' active roster Saturday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

Jake Luton: Joins New Orleans' practice squad
The Saints signed Luton to their practice squad Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Luton appeared in two preseason games with Jacksonville, totaling 186 yards and one interception, and was waived ahead of the 53-man roster deadline. Jameis Winston and Andy Dalton are cemented as the top two quarterbacks in New Orleans, so Luton will operate as an emergency option on the practice squad.

Luton was waived by the Jaguars on Monday.
Luton appeared in each of Jacksonville's first two preseason games, completing 22 of 38 passes for 186 yards and one interception.

Jaguars' Jake Luton: Draws spot start Thursday
Luton completed 10 of 17 passes for 94 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions during the Jaguars' 27-11 preseason loss to the Raiders in Thursday's Hall of Fame Game.
The third-year signal-caller played with a largely inexperienced receiver corps that was missing top options Christian Kirk, Marvin Jones, Zay Jones and Laviska Shenault, so his numbers were more than serviceable in that context. Luton was thrown into the fire as a rookie back in 2020 and completed just 54.5 percent of his passes, and after spending part of last season with the Seahawks, he's back in Jacksonville competing for a backup job against C.J. Beathard (groin). Luton could have another solid opportunity in front of him in the second half during the Aug. 12 preseason matchup against the Browns even if Trevor Lawrence starts that contest.
