Week 3 in 2015 was the last game I recall him playing. Did an admiral job against the Panthers, even though the Saints lost on a late interception. Luke was a class act in my opinion. He had the respect of the coaches and teammates and was a solid team guy. As a back up you aren't going to get the eye-popping numbers, its much more about overall character and sufficient skills to keep the team going if needed. Luke was never going to be a starter in the NFL, but he was excellent in his role. JMHO.....
