The New Orleans Saints handled the quarterback position well in 2025. It wasn't easy. The Saints abruptly lost Derek Carr as he announced his retirement from the National Football League.

The New Orleans Saints are taking an intriguing flyer on an intriguing, big-play receiver. Reports surfaced earlier in the week insinuating that the Saints were planning to sign wide receiver <a href="/college_football/players/damien_alford/690998">Damien Alford</a>.

A December report suggested that the New Orleans Saints could move on from head coach Kellen Moore after just one season. One theory at the time was that a different coaching staff could spend this winter searching for an upgrade at quarterback over 2025 rookie Tyler Shough.

The New Orleans Saints have identified their quarterback of the future. New Orleans is prepared to move forward with <a href="/nfl/players/tyler_shough/927900">Tyler Shough</a> as their starting QB for the 2026 season, Katherine Terrell of ESPN reported on Wednesday.

Rule changes have made passing numbers easier to compile in the modern era, and the game's top quarterbacks have taken full advantage. While the heaviest hitters are represented here, some storied postseasons by slightly lesser-celebrated QBs remain entrenched in playoff annals as well.

It certainly sounds like the New Orleans Saints are gearing up for a big offseason ahead. Right now, the Saints' salary cap situation doesn't look great on paper.

The New Orleans Saints certainly looked different when Week 1 of the 2025 season rolled around than expected. When the Saints entered the offseason last year, Derek Carr was still the expected starting quarterback for the team in 2025, although it did also seem likely that the team was going to draft a quarterback as well.

Midway through the 2025 season, the New Orleans Saints looked like a team potentially in purgatory.
