He just wants to continue to see improvement from his quarterbacks.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor the most part, the quarterback\u2019s just been rotating. Just kind of by the day. You know, I don\u2019t want to get into a\u2026Where they\u2019re always looking who\u2019s in who\u2019s out to create a little better rhythm each day. And so, you know, Spence took the ones today, and you know, continue to rotate throughout the whole offseason,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Shough went 7-8 in Thursday\u2019s practice; Rattler went 8-8. Despite that, Moore says this time period in the offseason is for preparation, not evaluation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><a href=\"#sailthru-signup-widget\" data-ylk=\"slk:Close;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Close<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Thanks for signing up!<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Watch for us in your inbox.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Subscribe Now<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think this time of year; you are limited to an allotment limits 6 hours. I think OTAs really are about efficiency. You got to be really, really special with your time. And so, the meetings are probably shorter than you\u2019d normally have in season, just naturally by rules. But I think our guys do an excellent job. Again, this is a very much a teaching phase and a building phase. And so, you know, at times its small increments building and then it allows us to continue to build through training camp,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>The Saints are off for the next four days for Memorial Day weekend and will return to the practice field next week.<\/p>\n<p>Latest news<\/p>\n<p>Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
