Saints Remain Only NFL Team Without Named Starting Quarterback

The New Orleans Saints continue to face challenges with injuries as they approach the 2025 season under new sports performance director Ted Rath, with key players like rookie running back Devin Neal and others dealing with various setbacks. Head coach Kellen Moore highlighted Neal's limited practice participation as a positive step toward potential playtime and provided an injury update on several players, including John Ridgeway and Zach Wood. Additionally, the Saints remain the only NFL team yet to name a starting quarterback for Week 1, with the competition between Spencer Rattler and Tyler Shough still undecided. Moore emphasized the closeness of the competition, noting that the final preseason game against the Denver Broncos will be crucial for the decision. While both quarterbacks have shown mixed performances, Moore's reluctance to make an early choice reflects uncertainty about the quarterback position's stability. This ongoing quarterback dilemma, coupled with injury concerns, underscores the challenges Moore faces in solidifying the Saints' roster and lineup for the upcoming season.
