Saints to go with QB Spencer Rattler

Pro Football Talk

Aug 26 · 3:35 PM EDT

The Saints quarterback competition is officially over.

Head coach Kellen Moore announced in his Tuesday press conference that Spencer Rattler is the team’s starter to begin the season, with Rattler winning the battle over Tyler Shough.

Fantasy Impact:

Moore said that Rattler and Shough made the decision hard because they were so close. Moore cited Rattler’s experience as one of the factors in his winning the competition. Moore added that he doesn’t want to debate the QBs throughout the season, so the plan is to have Rattler as the starter and Shough continue to develop.

Saints QB competition will continue

Head coach Kellen Moore told reporters at a Tuesday press conference that the competition will continue through Saturday’s game against the Broncos. Spencer Rattler and Tyler Shough have started the first two preseason games and Moore said he could not give any indication of where things stand at this point because the coaching staff has not made any decisions.

Fantasy Impact:

The story said Moore didn’t say who would start against Denver, but shared that Rattler and Shough will continue to split first-team reps in practice this week. Moore added the competition is really close. Those who follow the team have said in the past Shough didn't look ready and the team would likely have to go with Rattler to start the season. So, it's possible Shough has closed the gap in Moore's eyes.

Saints Beat: Right now, easy decision to start QB Spencer Rattler

Saints reporter Nick Underhill said he has some concerns about rookie QB Tyler Shough starting, and thinks it would be an easy decision to go with Spencer Rattler at QB.

Fantasy Impact:

The video went on to say it would make sense to start Rattler, who would be the safe pick, vs. starting Shough and having to pull him if he struggles early in the season. The video said Shough has not looked more ready than a second round pick should. Underhill, in other posts, has also said Rattler has clearly outplayed Shough so far in camp. The video went on to say Haener is clearly the third option right now. Granted it's still early and there is time, but starting Rattler early in the season makes the most sense versus throwing Shough into the fire if he's not ready.

Saints QB Derek Carr is retiring

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr is retiring, the team announced Saturday.

The team said that Carr had a labral tear and degenerative rotator cuff damage to his right throwing shoulder.

Related Players: Tyler Shough, Spencer Rattler

Fantasy Impact:

It has long been expected that Carr could have problems getting on the field in 2025, but those problems clearly ran deeper. Shough and Rattler will battle it out for the QB1 role, and it's looking like a safe bet that Shough will handle a vast majority of the starts this season.
