Saints HC Kellen Moore Adds Louisville Quarterback Tyler Shough In Pre-Draft Visit with Derek Carr out for the season

The New Orleans Saints have done extensive homework on several quarterbacks in the 2025 NFL Draft. This holds even greater importance with Friday’s news that the season of QB Derek Carr might be in jeopardy because of a shoulder injury.

New Orleans added yet another quarterback to their potential target list on Friday. Jeff Duncan of NOLA.com was the first to report that the Saints hosted Louisville quarterback Tyler Shough on a top-30 visit.

Shough began his collegiate career at Oregon in 2018. After three years as a reserve, he’d transfer to Texas Tech. He’d open the year as the starter for the Red Raiders in three consecutive seasons there. However, in all three years he’d suffer an injury (collarbone, left shoulder, broken fibula) that either caused him to miss significant time or most of the season.

Transferring to Louisville for his final collegiate campaign, Slough finally put together a full season. He’d lead the Cardinals to an 8-4 regular season record, completing 62.7% of his throws for 3,195 yards with 23 touchdowns and 6 interceptions.

A Day 3 draft projection, Shough’s injury issues are likely a red flag for some teams. His age (25) could also limit his long-term upside as a prospect.

Shough must show better passing mechanics. Especially in his lower body setup and release, where poor technique has affected his velocity and accuracy. He must also show more patience when going through his progressions, too often either panicking when his initial read isn’t there or locking on to a primary receiver.

In the highly structured passing systems at both Texas Tech and Louisville, Shough showed excellent results. He’s been equally effective from the shotgun or under center and has run the spread and more traditional pro-style attacks efficiently.

Shough is a terrific athlete with formidable size at 6’5″ and 219-Lbs. He has a compact arm release, can escape pressure, and shows excellent ball placement on his throws. Shough possesses natural upper body technique and arm talent that will only improve with a better throwing platform.
