Lutz was a limited practice participant Monday due to a back injury.

There wasn't any indication that Lutz was battling an injury during the Saints' Week 12 win over the Falcons, as he drilled both of his field-goal tries and all six of his extra-point attempts. The fact that the 24-year-old was still able to practice in some capacity is a positive sign, but his level of involvement in sessions Tuesday and Wednesday should prove more telling with regard to his status for Thursday's game against Dallas. Unless the Saints sign or begin working alternative options at kicker, Lutz's availability shouldn't be considered in serious peril.
