Tyler Shough

Shough added 18 carries on six attempts and was sacked six times. He was also active on two-point conversion plays, for better and for worse. Shough punched in a two-pointer on the ground but also threw a pick-two (interceptions returned to the end zone on two-point conversions are worth two points) on his second try. Despite struggling to get much going during this game, Shough came on late, getting all 17 of his team's points in the second half. He even had a chance to win the game with a deep shot to Olave with under a minute to go. Shough put the ball where it needed to be, but Olave dropped the pass, ultimately costing New Orleans the game. Shough will remain the starter for Week 14, but it's not clear if he is even an upgrade over Spencer Rattler. Needless to say, Shough is not a great fantasy option for Week 14 versus Tampa Bay.

It was business as usual for Johnson, who has at least four catches in three-of-four Tyler Shough starts. He scored in Shough's first two starts but has since run dry in that department. That is to be expected with Shough taking his lumps on a week-to-week basis. Johnson led the Saints in targets this week, though Devaughn Vele paced the team in catches and yards. Johnson will remain a low-end TE1 for his Week 14 matchup with the Bucs.

Olave entered Sunday listed as questionable because of back spasms. He moved well and earned plenty of targets, but the fact that Devaughn Vele led the team in all receiving categories could point to the back injury being a minor issue for Olave in this contest. Olave could have made up some ground on Vele late in the game had he brought down a game-winning score. Tyler Shough put the ball on the money on a deep shot to Olave during the Saints' final drive. Navigating two defenders near the end zone, Olave let the ball slip between his hands, blowing a chance at the win. It was a frustrating end to a floor performance from the young wideout. He will remain in the WR2 ranks when the Saints take on the Bucs.

Tyler Shough connected with Chris Olave on a 17-yard touchdown, cutting the New Orleans Saints deficit against the Miami Dolphins.

Shough completed 30 of 43 passes for 243 yards and one interception during Sunday's 24-10 defeat versus Atlanta. He also logged seven carries for 22 yards, and he lost one fumble.
