Tyler Shough earns top-10 fantasy quarterback grade ahead of Week 4

Summary

Tyler Shough ranks eighth among quarterbacks in Pro Football Network’s Week 4 fantasy rankings as the New Orleans Saints prepare to face the Atlanta Falcons. Shough shares this distinction with Brock Purdy, marking their third consecutive top-10 finishes this season. With Kellen Moore’s high-tempo offensive system, Shough is expected to see more passing opportunities, particularly due to Travis Etienne's hamstring injury. Last season, Shough completed over 65% of his passes against Atlanta, demonstrating effectiveness against their strong pressure defense. Tonight's game against the Falcons is set to weigh heavily on his performance as the Saints look to capitalize on their offensive momentum.

What they're saying

"
Atlanta comes to New Orleans with Shough eighth among quarterbacks in PFN’s Week 4 rankings, sharing with Brock Purdy the only pair of three-game top-10 streaks this season. Kellen Moore’s system is built on tempo and will generate plays in bulk, and with the Travis Etienne hamstring injury the lean toward the pass game only grows, with Chris Olave handling all the volume he can take and Juwan Johnson producing at tight end.
