The New Orleans Saints drafted Tyler Shough over the weekend, and the team has made a change at quarterback to account for the selection.Â
The Saints informed quarterback Ben DiNucci that they plan to release him, DiNucci wrote on X. DiNucci, 28, had been with the Saints since late last season when he joined the practice squad.
The Saints' quarterback room now consists of Derek Carr, Shough, Spencer Rattler and Jake Haener. Carr's status for 2025 is still unknown as he deals with a shoulder injury.
DiNucci entered the NFL in 2020 when he was drafted in the seventh round out of James Madison by Dallas. He appeared in three games for the Dallas Cowboys.Â
