The New Orleans Saints selected Louisville quarterback Tyler Shough with the 40th overall pick in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft, making him the third signal-caller taken this year.
Shough, a seven-year college veteran who began his career alongside Justin Herbert and earned four academic degrees, is expected to bolster the depth chart behind starter Derek Carr and provide additional insurance as Carr recovers from a shoulder issue. The decision leaves fellow prospects Shedeur Sanders and Jalen Milroe still on the board as draft proceedings continue.
