Dad’s Take on Tyler Shough
Look at this kid holding that football like he's afraid it's gonna bite him! Saints are calling him their "potential franchise QB" because he was polite at dinner? Back in my day, quarterbacks didn't need table manners to throw a spiral – they just needed to look like they could take a hit without crying to their mommy!
About Tyler Shough
Shough left quite the impression on the Saints' higher-ups during a dinner after being drafted, further cementing his standing as the potential franchise QB. "He's smart and polite, but we were most impressed by how respectful and humble he is," restaurant owner Tommy Cvitanovich said.

Shough gave up his baseball career long ago, but he never forgot how to hit a home run. During his time on the college circuit, he learned how to hunt the longball on the gridiron — and he got quite good at it. In 2024, he ranked fourth in the FBS with seven completions of 50 yards or more.

Much like an elite hurler boasting a repertoire of pitches, Shough flexes the ability to make a plethora of throws. He starts with his version of a heater, zipping a pass past the hands of a defensive back. Following that comes his changeup, a ball that is floated perfectly over the linebacker's head.

When his final college season resulted in mediocre 3,200 yards, Shough emerged not as always seen as confident in himself, said the 2025 season. My thing is, that's my whole deal going into the NFL. Just to prove in what I can't play.

At 25, Shough was one of the oldest players tabbed during the 2025 draft. The Saints didn't consider that a red flag — they saw green. "We saw it as a positive," said head coach Kellen Moore. "He's been through a lot of football, he's been exposed to a lot of different settings."

Shough was glad he could come to OTAs and get straight to business with his new teammates. "I feel a lot more prepared being kind of an older rookie coming in," he said. "Not being as nervous to develop those relationships, but knowing that my whole job is to continue to earn my role and do everything I can."
