In His First NFL Win, Shough Sets Saints Rookie Passing Record, Leads Black & Gold over Panthers
Tyler Shough threw for 282 yards and two touchdowns, helping the Saints snap a four-game losing streak with a 17-7 win over the Panthers.
- On Nov 9, 2025 in Charlotte, Saints rookie quarterback Tyler Shough passed for 282 yards and two touchdowns as New Orleans defeated the Carolina Panthers 17-7, snapping a four-game skid.
- Tyler Shough began the season as the Saints' backup and made his first start last week, becoming the first Saints rookie quarterback to win since Dave Wilson in 1981.
- Shough's deep connections produced game-changing plays, including a 62-yard strike to Chris Olave and a 30-yard TD to Juwan Johnson, leading the Saints to victory.
- The victory moved New Orleans Saints to 2-8 and dropped Carolina Panthers to 5-5, ending their four-game win streak; now the Saints have a bye next week before hosting Atlanta Falcons in Week 12.
- With a little under half the season left, the New Orleans Saints must decide if Shough is the long-term starter or if they should use a high pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.
