Shough and Devin Neal combined for 125 rushing yards on the ground, the most by Saints rookies in the same game since 2017. Mayfield finished 14-of-30 with a 55.1 passer rating and a 23% third-down conversion rate — numbers that, set against Tampa Bay’s 32 minutes of possession and 301 total yards, show exactly how a team can control most of a game and still lose it. For New Orleans, the final score at Raymond James Stadium on December 7, 2025 was the clearest evidence yet of what Shough can do when the game demands something beyond what the stat sheet measures.
