Shough's QB12 finish and easy 2026 schedule support late-round QB value.

Shough, a second-round draft pick, was a pleasant surprise as a rookie and enters 2026 as New Orleans' undisputed starter. After Spencer Rattler started the first eight games in 2025, Shough took over in Week 9 and guided the Saints to a 5-4 record. From Week 9 through the regular season, Shough was QB12 in fantasy points per game and produced at least 17.1 fantasy points in each of his last six starts. He completed 67.6% of his throws, averaged 7.3 yards per pass attempt, had 10 TD passes and six interceptions, and averaged 16.9 rushing yards per game with three TD runs. Pat Fitzmaurice notes only one team Shough faced (Rams) ranked inside the top 10 in DVOA against the pass, and the Saints should have an easy schedule again in 2026.
