Former Louisville football star finally gets his shot as Saints bench Spencer Rattler

Former Louisville football player Tyler Shough is finally going to get the respect that he deserves. The New Orleans Saints benched Spencer Rattler in last week's loss in the third quarter and gave the ball to their former second-round pick and the former Louisville Cardinal.

Shough and Rattler battled it out this offseason for the starting position, but head coach Kellen Moore decided to lean with Rattler over Shough. Well, after a 1-7 start and Rattler leading one of the worst offenses in the nation, Moore finally decided to give the starting position to Shough.

It took him long enough, but Moore will finally start Shough over Rattler in the Saints' ninth game of the season.
