Saints head coach Kellen Moore spoke positively about the pick, emphasizing that the team valued Shough’s potential and saw real upside in adding to the quarterback room.

“We just felt like it was a really good player,” Moore said. “Obviously we felt good about Tyler through this process and I don’t think there’s anything wrong with ever investing in the quarterback room. We feel like there’s a lot of depth in there now as we go through this process and let’s let it play out.”

Tyler Shough finished his final college season with solid numbers, completing 62.7 percent of his passes for 3,915 yards and 23 touchdowns. Now, he will look to carve out his place in New Orleans while Jordan, who has already stolen the early headlines, continues to bring her energy to the journey
