The outlook for Tyler Shough
By: Jake Rajala
Tyler Shough has taken a lot of heat for being a 26 year old rookie quarterback. I find it offensive that he is criticized for this because I’m 26. I also am not fond of this hate toward his age because I’m a die-hard Saints fan.
Shough has been working hard this offseason. Thankfully, he doesn’t quite golf as much as backup QB Spencer Rattler. He also doesn’t act crude toward his fellow quarterbacks and wide receivers, as Rattler once did in high school.
Of course, a lot of us grow as adults. I’m not speaking for Johnny Manziel, however.
Tyler had quite an impressive nine game showcase last season. He went 5-4 last season. In Drew Brees’s first full season, he didn’t have a winning record (8-8). Furthermore, he also unleashed 16 interceptions. Let’s not forget that Peyton Manning threw 28 interceptions in his rookie season. I’m not saying Tyler will get a gold jacket like Drew and Peyton, but he has certainly had an impressive start.
Shough may have a lot of potential, but he hasn’t been able to get in the spotlight. Shedeur Sanders was in the Pro Bowl and Jaxson Dart just introduced the President at a rally. It would still be an understatement to say that Dart will catch his fair share of hate for it. Let’s still not forget that Tom Brady is a friend of Trump and we have all seemed to forget it.
The Saints drafted wide receiver Jordyn Tyson in the Top-10 of the 2026 NFL Draft. He is from Arizona State. He has all the talent on the field and it doesn’t appear he has party issues off the field. Of course, there was a legendary tight end from ASU that could party and dominate on the field. Yes, I’m talking about Gronk. I hope the Saints don’t have to worry about that risk with Tyson.
