From the article

Shough, ranked 19th among quarterbacks in roster percentage, started slowly versus the Detroit Lions, then ended up skewering them for 23.2 PPR points. Yes, he had the aid of overtime and he didn't face a strong secondary. Still, that's 410 passing yards and three touchdowns.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Shough's 23.2-point Week 1 performance suggests QB1 upside in standard leagues.

Shough started slowly against Detroit but finished with 23.2 PPR points (410 passing yards, three touchdowns) despite overtime and a weak secondary. He was a borderline QB1 option during his nine starts late in his rookie season and might be underrated even in standard 10-team formats.
