The New York Giants were on hand at Louisville University’s 2025 Pro Day, where they got a chance to evaluate quarterback prospect Tyler Shough.
Giants: Tyler Shough could be an option despite landing Russell Wilson
ESPN’s Jordan Ranaan broke the news on Tuesday afternoon (h/t Giants Wire’s John Fennelly). Shough had a breakout season with the Cardinals in 2024. The 25-year-old threw for 3,195 passing yards on the campaign. Shough also sported a 23-6 TD-INT ratio.
The Giants completed their search for another veteran quarterback on Tuesday night, signing Russell Wilson to a one-year deal. With Jameis Winston also signed to a two-year deal, the Giants could pass on a quarterback with the No. 3 overall pick and instead opt to address the position later in the draft with a more developmental prospect like Shough.
- Giants spent ‘considerable time’ with intriguing Day 2 pass-rusher prospect
- Giants can open up $22 million in cap space and now they have no choice
- Giants could target ‘dynamic’ defensive tackle on Day 2 of NFL Draft
Giants may consider Shough in the later rounds of the draft
Seeing that top quarterback prospects Cam Ward (Miami) and Shedeur Sanders (Colorado) could both be drafted before the Giants select with the No. 3 overall pick, they may need to pivot to address another position. Shough could be an intriguing developmental prospect to consider in the later rounds of the draft.
