Tyler Shough is an American football quarterback known for his impressive arm talent and mobility. Born on September 28, 1999, in Chandler, Arizona, he began his collegiate career with the Oregon Ducks in 2018. After transferring to Texas Tech University in 2021, Shough played three seasons there before joining the Louisville Cardinals in 2024.
In his final collegiate season with Louisville, Shough led the team to an 8-4 record, passing for 3,195 yards and 23 touchdowns with six interceptions. His performance at the Senior Bowl further elevated his draft prospects, drawing attention from NFL teams like the Las Vegas Raiders.
As the 2025 NFL Draft approaches, Shough’s age—turning 26 at the start of the season—has raised questions among scouts. However, his physical attributes, including his 6’5″ frame, and his strong arm continue to make him a viable candidate for teams seeking a quarterback.
