Outlook Tyler Shough
Tyler Shough vs. MIN — Tough Test Against Undefeated Vikings
Tyler Shough logged a full practice despite dealing with a minor left-hand issue, clearing any real availability doubts as New Orleans' starter. However, he enters Week 5 facing a formidable test against an undefeated 4-0 Minnesota defense while key weapons Chris Olave and Alvin Kamara manage injuries. With Travis Etienne Jr. already sidelined, the Saints will need Shough to step up.
Our weekly projection slots Shough for roughly 229 passing yards, 1.4 passing scores, and 18 rushing yards, totaling 15.5 fantasy points. While he demonstrated high ceiling earlier this season with a four-touchdown performance, this matchup’s modest scoring environment caps his upside. Fantasy managers should view Shough as a volatile QB2 or streaming option this week.

Tyson Bagent at Green Bay — Backup draws another start in divisional rivalry
Tyson Bagent draws his second consecutive start as Caleb Williams remains sidelined with a hamstring injury. After throwing for 268 yards on 73.5% passing in a Week 4 victory, head coach Ben Johnson confirmed Bagent will lead the offense at Lambeau Field, with plans to take more shots downfield.
For fantasy purposes, Bagent is rostered in just 6% of leagues and remains a low-ceiling option outside of two-quarterback formats. With multiple starting offensive linemen nursing injuries, our weekly projection forecasts 12.2 fantasy points and around 190 passing yards, making him primarily a desperation play.
