2025 Fantasy Outlook
Rattler had first-round hype early in his college career, but he never matched the promise of a 28-TD season for Oklahoma in 2020, and ultimately landed in the fifth round of the 2024 NFL Draft. He made six starts as a rookie, losing all six games while averaging just 5.8 YPA and throwing more interceptions (five) than touchdowns (four). Rattler was in a terrible situation, playing behind a supbar offensive line and without the Saints' top two receivers, but it's nonetheless difficult to draw positives from such a brutally bad stat line. He may get another shot to compere for the starting job anyway, as the Saints otherwise are left with 2025 second-round pick Tyler Shough and 2023 fourth-rounder Jake Haener after Derek Carr announced his retirement in May.

RANKS
Signed a four-year, $4.36 million contract with the Saints in May of 2024.
Ceding starting role to Shough
Saints head coach Kellen Moore informed Rattler that he will move into the No. 2 role at quarterback with Tyler Shough set to take over as the team's starting quarterback beginning with Sunday's game against the Rams, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
After a 1-7 start to the season, the Saints are opting for a change under center. Despite a lackluster supporting cast, Rattler was reasonably efficient as a passer over his eight starts (68 percent completion rate, 6.2 yards per attempt), but he had been mistake-prone over his last two outings. In just over six and a half quarters of football in losses to the Bears and Buccaneers, the second-year QB took seven sacks, threw four interceptions and lost two fumbles. Unlike the undersized Rattler, Shough (6-foot-5, 219 pounds) offers an ideal frame as a pocket passer and solid arm strength to match it, but his lack of mobility and poor accuracy could render him a less interesting fantasy option.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Rattler was the third selection of the Saints in the 2024 NFL Draft, and he's likely in the cards for the team's future plans at quarterback. However, the fifth-round pick will immediately contend for the backup role behind starting signal-caller Derek Carr. With Jameis Winston gone to Cleveland, Rattler will contend with journeyman Nathan Peterman and 2021 fourth-round pick Jake Haener, the latter of whom has yet to make his NFL debut. Rattler started his collegiate career with high expectations at Oklahoma before losing his job to Caleb Williams in 2021, and he finished with a 19:8 TD:INT at South Carolina in 2023.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Demoted from top job
Rattler, who started each of the Saints' first eight games of the season, was demoted from the No. 1 job Tuesday in favor of rookie Tyler Shough, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Rattler was pulled for Shough during the Saints' Week 8 loss to the Buccaneers in the latter portion of the third quarter, and the demotion is now officially for the rest of the regular season as long as the rookie signal-caller's health sustains. Rattler was serviceable in terms of numbers by completing 68.0 percent of his passes for 1,568 yards with an 8:5 TD:INT and a 31-167-0 rushing line, and he'll take 15 games of regular-season experience with him to the bench.
