Starting in Saturday's preseason game
Wilson will be the Saints' starting quarterback against the Rams in Saturday's preseason contest, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Tyler Shough will not play in Saturday's exhibition contest, and the Saints have opted to go with Wilson as the starter, with Spencer Rattler serving as the backup and Hunter Dekkers in the mix for snaps late in the game. Wilson played well in the Saints' preseason opener against the Jaguars, as he completed 11 of 16 passes for 145 yards and a touchdown in a 24-20 loss.
