Lutz, who signed a contract extension with Denver last November, enters the 2026 campaign as the team's clear primary kicker, Bob Morris of SI.com reports. Lutz has been very reliable since joining the Broncos in 2023, playing in all 51 of the team's regular-season games and making 89.0 percent of his field-goal tries. He's converted 12 of 18 attempts from 50-plus yards during that time and hasn't missed any extra points over the past two years. Morris notes Lutz's contract includes no guaranteed money in 2028, but with most of his salary guaranteed from 2026 to 2027, the veteran kicker is essentially locked in as Denver's starting kicker for at least the next two years.

Lutz connected on all four of his field-goal attempts and made his lone extra-point try during the Broncos' 19-3 win over the Chargers on Sunday. Three of Lutz's for field-goal attempts Sunday came from 26 yards or closer, with his longest attempt coming from 41 yards early in the fourth quarter. His four made field goals were his most in a game since Week 11 against the Chiefs (five), and the veteran kicker will end the 2025 regular season having gone 28-for-32 on field-goal attempts (87.5 percent) and 39-for-39 on extra-point tries through 17 games.

Lutz made both of his field-goal attempts and both extra-point tries Thursday in a 20-13 win over Kansas City. The game was close throughout, so Lutz's leg was crucial in Denver's victory. He began the scoring with a 27-yard FG midway through the first quarter and added a 30-yard boot in the second. The Broncos scored two touchdowns in the second half, and Lutz was good on both PATs. He's been steadily accurate this season, making 24 of 28 field-goal attempts and all 38 of his point-after tries through 16 games.

Lutz made two of three field-goal attempts and both of his PATs in Denver's 34-20 loss to Jacksonville on Sunday. Lutz was good from 54 and 21 yards but missed a 44-yard kick in the first quarter, banging it off the right upright. On the season, Lutz has made 22 of 26 field-goal tries and all 36 of his extra-point attempts. Lutz and the Broncos will travel to Arrowhead this week to face the Chiefs on Thursday night.

Lutz did not attempt a field goal and made all four of his PATs in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Packers. Lutz went without a field-goal attempt for the first time since Week 4, and he has now made one or zero field goals in six of the last eight games overall. The kicker still has had a strong season, going 20-for-23 on field-goal tries, including 3-for-5 from 50-plus yards, while making all 34 of his extra-point attempts over 14 contests.
