NEW ORLEANS -- Rookie quarterback Tyler Shough will start Sunday's preseason game against the Jaguars , the Saints announced on social media Saturday.

Shough is currently in a competition with Spencer Rattler for the Saints' starting quarterback role. The Saints have not made a decision about a permanent starter and have given both Shough and Rattler first-team opportunities in practice.

Rattler started the Saints' first preseason game against the Los Angeles Chargers last Sunday and played most of the first half, finishing 7-of-11 for 53 yards.

Shough came in for the final two minutes of the first half and played most of the second half as well, finishing 15-of-22 for 165 yards, a passing touchdown and an interception returned for a touchdown in the Saints 27-13 loss.
