Saints' Jake Luton: Returns to New Orleans
The Saints signed Luton off the Panthers' practice squad Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Luton will likely operate as the team's No. 2 quarterback Sunday against the Buccaneers with Jake Haener still serving a six-game suspension and Derek Carr expected to be out with a shoulder injury. The Oregon State product spent time with New Orleans in 2022 and should be familiar with the offense, making him a viable emergency option for the franchise.

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.

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.
