The New Orleans Saints selected Louisville quarterback Tyler Shough in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 40th overall.
Shough’s selection comes amid uncertainty over Derek Carr’s availability for 2025. The Saints quarterback is dealing with a shoulder injury that could leave him sidelined.
New Orleans passed on Colorado passer Shedeur Sanders to take Shough, who was the third quarterback drafted after Cam Ward and Jaxson Dart.
