Saints rookie Tyler Shough expressed a high comfort level with running Kellen Moore's system. He says so much college experience prepared him well.

Shough spent time at the academy previously, but him being the first to come back once joining the NFL says a lot about his character and desires to not only get better on the field, but also to see other players improve their game. When asked about his decision to counsel this year, Shough had this to say:

Shough is competing with second-year quarterback Spencer Rattler and 2022 fourth-round pick Jake Haener for the starting job. He could become just the second rookie quarterback to start Week 1 for the Saints, and the first since Archie Manning did it more than 50 years ago in 1971.
