The Denver Broncos made a bold move during this offseason. They moved on from veteran quarterback Russell Wilson. 

Wilson's jersey number became available with the decision, and one player is taking advantage.

Kicker Wil Lutz will wear number 3 in 2024.

Lutz returns as a veteran boot for Denver. His free agency rollercoaster was a bumpy one. He had multiple offers and was actually strongly considering leaving the Broncos. Instead, he re-signed with the team that pulled him from the New Orleans Saints alongside Sean Payton. 

The Broncos kicker was one of the most efficient in 2023. Lutz made 30 of 34 field goal attempts last season.

He will look to build on that success in a new number in 2024.
