The New Orleans Saints and Kellen Moore have announced that second-year player Spencer Rattler will get the designation of QB1 ahead of Sunday’s preseason matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers, per the team’s social X account.

Moore also made it a point of emphasis that both Jake Haener and second-round draft pick Tyler Shough will get reps within the rotation. While it is unclear how many snaps each will get, fans and staff will get a great opportunity for the quarterbacks to put real game film on tape.

Sunday’s contest is set to kick off at 3:00 p.m. CST, live from SoFi Stadium. The game will be broadcast on NFL Network, and those within the local viewing area can catch coverage from WVUE FOX 8.
