The New Orleans Saints published a Nov. 1, 2026 roundup saying former Boise State standout Kellen Moore was honored with a bronze statue outside Boise State’s Albertsons Stadium and that quarterback Tyler Shough earned midseason recognition from fans and local media. The team linked to coverage from KTVB and other outlets in a Sunday collection of headlines and photos.

KTVB conducted two interviews with Moore around the statue unveiling. In one piece, KTVB reporter Jordan Smith traveled to New Orleans for an in-depth sit-down. The station’s coverage focused on Moore’s recruiting journey from Prosser, Washington, to Boise State and his legacy at the university.
