St Louis had a dramatic rebound in 1999 winning 16 games

He was then released by Philadelphia.He was signed by the Buffalo Bills two games into the season the next year. The Bills had drafted John Nies in the sixth-round that year, but were unhappy with his production. They carried Tuten on the roster for a few more weeks before deciding to cut Nies. Tuten then was the punter the rest of the year, and averaged 39.8 yards on 53 attempts. Buffalo would go on to play in Super Bowl XXV that year, but would lose to the New York Giants 20-19.Chris Mohr would replace Tuten on the Bills next year, and spend ten seasons with the team.

Now a free agent again, Tuten waited for a team to give him a shot. He averaged 43 yards on 49 punt attempts.The Seahawks then used him a lot in 1992. He punted the ball an NFL-leading 108 times, which is the fourth-most in NFL history. His 4,760 yards also led the NFL, and is still the third-most punting yards in a single season in NFL history. He led the NFL in punting yards again in 1993 with 4007 yards on 90 punts.

He also had the first punt of his career blocked that season.Tuten made his only Pro Bowl squad in 1994 after punting 91 times for 3,905 yards Tuten also scored on a two point conversion that year. He followed it up with perhaps the best season of his career in 1995. The Seahawks then signed veteran Jeff Feagles during the offseason, and released Tuten. He then signed with the Saint Louis Rams for the 1998 season and punted the ball 95 times for the 4-12 Rams.St Louis had a dramatic rebound in 1999, winning 16 games. He then retired after the season.His 554 punts for 24,266 yards are the best in Seahawks' history, as is his 73 yard punt. His Seahawks' career average of 43.8 yards per punt is the second-best in franchise history by anyone with two or more punts. Not to be confused with the punter Steve Broussard who had three punts blocked in the four games he played for the 1975 Green Bay Packers.This Broussard was a first-round draft pick by the Atlanta Falcons in 1990.
