"Shough was selected by the Saints in the second round of April's draft. He is the oldest QB in this rookie class (25), having spent his seven collegiate seasons at Oregon, Texas Tech and Louisville. He completed only 63% of his passes last season and for his career, but has a big frame, good arm and adds some value with his legs (career 196-1,109-11 line). Following Derek Carr's shocking retirement in May, Shough will slot in as the Saints' No. 2 QB behind Spencer Rattler. Shough figures to eventually earn starts this season, but even if he's on the field, he's unlikely to emerge as a consistent fantasy option in an offense that is expected to struggle in 2025. Shough should not be drafted."


"Shough's first career home start was bookmarked by a pair of turnovers, as he lost a fumble on a botched exchange on the Saints' second offensive play before throwing an interception on a heave in the final seconds. The rookie quarterback was under fire during his first career home start, getting sacked five times. He also finished as New Orleans' leading rusher after RB1 Alvin Kamara was forced out with a knee injury in the first half. The lackluster support system around Shough isn't likely to make things easier for him moving forward. He and the rest of the offense will look to clean things up ahead of a Week 13 contest versus Miami on Sunday, Nov. 30."
