NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) - The New Orleans Saints preseason is without a win after two games. The Black and Gold got crushed by the Los Angeles Rams, 34-0.
With Tyler Shough sitting out for the second preseason game in a row, Zach Wilson got the start at quarterback. The veteran quarterback threw a touchdown pass last week against the Jaguars, but against the Rams Wilson struggled.
The former first-round pick went 6/12 passing, 55 yards, and an interception.
Spencer Rattler got the call in the second half, and also struggled. The third-year Saint threw a 100-yard pick-six, extending the Rams advantage, 27-0.
