Shough got off to a good start as he hit wideout Kevin Austin Jr. for a nine-yard gain on his first pass attempt. He went 5 of 8 on the drive while leading the Saints to their first score of the game, a 31-yard field goal by Blake Grupe, before the end of the first half.

Tyler Shough’s wife Jordan was proud of the Saints rookie quarterback after he outplayed Spencer Raller during the team’s preseason opener against the Chargers on Sunday.
