Tyler Shough Senior Bowl Preview: Strengths, Weaknesses, and NFL Draft Outlook

Tyler Shough is a big, athletic quarterback standing at 6’5″ and 225 pounds, with a strong arm that allows him to make all the throws. He’s also a threat with his legs, able to make plays on the move and gain yardage when needed. However, his career has been plagued by injuries, limiting him to just 23 games by 2023. When he’s on, Shough can throw deep with ease and has solid field vision, but his accuracy can be inconsistent, especially on downfield passes. Despite this, his raw talent is clear, and if he can stay healthy and clean up some of his mechanics, he could have a shot at an NFL role.

 

At the Senior Bowl and Combine, all eyes will be on how Shough performs under pressure and whether he can show more consistency with his throws. Scouts will also be looking to see if he can stay healthy and improve his footwork and decision-making. With his injury history and being 25 years old when he enters the league, Shough is likely a Day 3 pick, but his physical tools still make him an intriguing option as a developmental backup with the potential to grow into a starter down the road.
