Tyler Shough's Wife Turning Heads Amid Saturday's Contract News originally appeared on The Spun.
The New Orleans Saints shocked plenty of people earlier this year when they selected Tyler Shough with the 40th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.
Shough was coming off a nice season with Louisville where he threw for 3,195 yards with 23 touchdowns and six interceptions. However, his injury history at Oregon and Texas Tech was a bit concerning. He suffered a broken collarbone twice as well as a fractured left fibula.
Despite Shough's age (26) and injury history, Saints head coach Kellen Moore felt really confident about the team's second-round selection.
"We just felt like it was a really good player," Moore said. "Obviously we felt good about Tyler through this process and I don't think there's anything wrong with ever investing in the quarterback room. We feel like there's a lot of depth in there now as we go through this process and let's let it play out."
Well, the Saints showed Shough how they really feel about him this Saturday.
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Saints and Shough have reached an agreement on a fully-guaranteed $10.795 million contract. The former Louisville quarterback's contract includes annual roster bonus structure, so he'll receive the majority of his money during the first week of training camp.
Shough's wife, Jordan, has to be pumped up about this news. She went viral during this year's NFL Draft because of her epic celebration.
Jordan gained thousands of followers on Instagram this past spring because of her brief appearance on ESPN. As of this writing, she's up to 7,895 followers.
Back in April, the happy couple shared their one-year wedding anniversary.
"Year One!! This year has been about as insane as they come! The vows I said a year ago have never been more true!! A lifetime will never be enough," Jordan wrote for her caption.
Only time will tell if the New Orleans community fully embraces the Shough family.
Shough is expected to compete against Jake Haener and Spencer Rattler in training camp.
The Saints will begin their preseason on Aug. 10 against the Los Angeles Chargers.
