Tyler Shough already ranks as the most decorated rookie QB in Saints history

The New Orleans Saints don't have a strong history of rookie quarterbacks. It's been pretty much just Archie Manning for over half a decade. After 2025, however, Tyler Shough has usurped Manning as the most decorated rookie quarterback in franchise history.

It's genuinely a surprise that it took too long because the numbers aren't that high in any categories. Timeline aside, that side of the record book belongs to Shough now.

After finishing the season with five victories, Shough has the most wins by a rookie quarterback. That's the most important record, as it tells you how successful the team was with him leading the way.
