With the New Orleans Saints still on the lookout for a franchise quarterback since Drew Brees retired, rookie Tyler Shough has made quite the impression. Cam Jordan believes that Shough could be the answer to the team’s prolonged struggle at the quarterback position. After being drafted in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft, Shough managed to throw for 2,384 yards and 13 touchdowns over 11 games, showcasing his potential and ability to adapt to the professional level.
Jordan’s high praise reflects both the pressure and expectations now resting on Shough’s shoulders. He encourages the young quarterback to continue proving himself and to embrace the grind that comes with the territory. As the Saints aim to make a return to postseason glory, this could be the moment they pivot to a fresh start in their quarterback saga. With Jordan believing in him, could Shough finally be the missing piece in New Orleans?
