The New Orleans Saints won their second game of the 2025 season and did so behind a strong effort from rookie quarterback Tyler Shough. The second-round rookie out of Louisville was making his second start and played incredibly well in the 17-7 win, throwing for 282 yards and two touchdowns in the win.
That win marked the first time a Saints rookie quarterback has won a game since Dave Wilson did it in 1981. Forty-four years came and went from the last time a Saints rookie quarterback won a game but Shough already is overcoming odds and showing that he's worth keeping an eye on.
