US EditionSaints Rookie QB Tyler Shough Aims to Have Fun and Let It Rip in His Maiden Start Against the Rams
Tyler Shough replaces Spencer Rattler as Saints starter to improve offense after 1-7 start, coach Moore said Shough is ready to lead the team this season.
- On Tuesday, the Saints named Tyler Shough their starting quarterback over Spencer Rattler, and Shough will make his first career start Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams.
- Moore's 48-hour review followed New Orleans' defeat that left the team 1-7, as he cited a sluggish, turnover-prone offense for replacing the starter.
- Shough showed up in relief vs. Tampa Bay with 17-of-30 for 128 yards and an interception, completed 36-of-54 passes in the preseason, and was the Saints' 40th overall pick from Louisville.
- Moore emphasized there's no intention to rotate quarterbacks weekly and affirmed Shough will start for the remainder of the season while Rattler serves as backup.
- Over the final nine games, Shough's results could influence draft plans as observers note his performance may shape whether the Saints pursue a quarterback with a top pick, amid three teams at 1-7 and Nov. 2.
