News about Derek Carr

A New Orleans Saints star has been sidelined for the remainder of the season due to a knee injury, it was reported Thursday.  The wide receiver underwent surgery Thursday to repair his meniscus and now faces a multi-month recovery, according to Ian Rapoport.  It came as a huge blow to New Orleans just hours before their Thursday Night Football clash against the Denver Broncos as he joined the long list of Saints standouts sidelined. 

After Monday night's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr is expected to 'miss multiple weeks' after suffering an oblique injury. Carr played for most of the Saints' 26-13 loss, with backup Jake Haener coming in for a relief effort with the result mostly in hand. However, Haener may be headed back to the bench, as New Orleans chooses who start on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Sky Bet are offering three Price Boosts for Monday Night Football - as 4/11 favourites the Kansas City Chiefs take on the 2/1 New Orleans Saints at Arrowhead. They include both teams to score 20+ points each at 2/1, Travis Kelce and Alvin Kamara to both score a touchdown at 7/2, and Derek Carr and Patrick Mahomes to each record 250+ passing yards at 7/1. Regarding the above boosts - the Chiefs are averaging 23 points per game so far this season, while the Saints are proving to be a high-powered offence with an average of 31.8 points per game. Additionally, Kamara has scored five touchdowns to date this season, while Mahomes and Carr have combined to throw for over 1,500 yards in 2024-25.

An Eagles star had to be held back by his coaches on Sunday after Philly pulled off a close win over the Saints on the road. Saquon Barkley scored a go-ahead rushing touchdown with 1:01 remaining and the Eagles went on to win 15-12. And after New Orleans' Derek Carr threw a game-ending interception moments before, Philly's second-year defensive tackle Jalen Carter couldn't help but give Saints players and fans an earful.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr has been fined $14,000 for his touchdown celebration at the end of the second quarter from Sunday's win over the Dallas Cowboys. After Carr ran the quarterback sneak to perfection to get into the end zone at AT&T Stadium, the early-season NFL MVP candidate showed he's a fan of Michael Jackson. Carr pulled out one of the signature dance moves from the 'King of Pop', a leg kick and a crotch grab. It is the latter that the NFL saw as inappropriate.

Travis and Jason Kelce took to the golf course on Friday as they teed it up in celebrity golf tournament the American Century Championship. Football's most famous brothers were followed by hordes of fans as they made their way round Edgewood Tahoe Resort. The Kelces are competing against a host of other stars from across the world of sports, including many rivals from the NFL.

Carr reportedly is insisting on getting his catchers custom chains and Rolex watches from renowned Al the Jeweler of Totowa, New Jersey. According to reports, Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed were iced-out watches, while others were given chains. Michael Thomas is said to be getting a gift. However, Carr's camp isn't obliged to reveal what he's been gifted.

At the age of 46, Tom Brady seemed to be ready to play with the Las Vegas Raiders before tragic life events interrupted his spectacular move. According to Hondo Carpenter's Las Vegas Browns Insider podcast, the Raiders went to Brady when they knew they were going to split with quarterback Derek Carr. I'm not going to get into a lot of detail,' Carpenter said. I can't. If you don't believe this, that's fine. Tom Brady was spotted by the Raiders and had every reason to believe it.

Following a costly drop vs. the Jaguars, Saints tight end Foster Moreau said he was in a "dark place" on Thursday night. With 30 seconds remaining and New Orleans trailing 31-24, quarterback Derek Carr dropped back from the opponents' six-yard line and passed the ball to a wide open Moreau in the back of the end zone. But the 26-year-old could not get a pass, and the Saints lost after struggling to convert on fourth down a play later.

Derek Carr of the New Orleans Saints was diagnosed with a shoulder injury after being fired in the third quarter of an 18-17 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Dennis Allen, the Saints' head coach, told reporters after the game that he thought Carr was getting X-rays but that there were no further details at the time. Allen said, 'He's being evaluated.' I can't tell you anything more than that.' It's a shoulder injury. He is being assessed. We'll let you know when we know what it is when we find out what it is.'

However, losing Rodgers would have been a bitter pill to swallow for the Packers and its followers: as one door closes, another one opens. Can Jordan Love be the next franchise quarterback for the National Football League's only community-owned team? He has shown glimpses of promise in his brief playing time, and if he leads his team to victory over a respected opponent like the Saints, it will go a long way to squeling any questions regarding the former Utah State alumni. And with Sky Bet, he and his crew have been tipped to win their second game of the season so far against Derek Carr and Co. The Packers are a modest 5/6 favorite to defeat their Louisiana opponents. Dennis Allen's side is marginally wider at 1/1.

After the Saints defeated the Panthers 20-17 on Monday, footage from Thomas walking down the tunnel before turning around to shout back at Brown was posted on X, formerly known as Twitter. Both of them return to their respective locker rooms after being locked out of a corner of a turn at the end of the ramp - Thomas, 30, and Brown, 25, square up, at which point Brown must be prevented from placing his hands on Thomas.

Chris Olave helped the Saints beat the Panthers and get their best start to an NFL season in a decade. The New Orleans Saints defeated the Carolina Panthers 20-17 on Monday night, winning 2-0 for the first time since 2013. Tony Jones Jr. ran for two touchdowns and rookie Blake Grupe kicked two field goals. However, Olave's spectacular catch, which culminated in Jones Jr's first touchdown and ignited a stuttering offense, was arguably the night's highlight.

Despite promising during the preseason, Haener, 24, was not expected to play this year. Veteran Derek Carr is the Saints' starting quarterback, and veteran Jameis Winston is the backup. As he has done before, the Saints could have Taysom Hill play quarterback full-time if necessary. However, Hill's main job is to perform planned quarterback runs, line up as a tight end, and then serve as the punt team's upback.

Derek Carr has expressed his dissatisfaction and indignation with his lack of ability to complete his career with the Raiders on the gridiron. Carr, a nine-years with the Oakland/Las Vegas franchise, was kept out of 2022's final two games in order to avoid using a clause that would have guaranteed his employment through 2023. Rather, Las Vegas sent in reserve Jartt Stidham, while Carr stepped away from the team until his eventual release on February 14.

Michael Thomas, the wide receiver for the Saints, has been pounding the pounds ahead of what they and New Orleans are hoping would be a comeback season for the ages. Thomas posted a video of him putting up 575lb for five reps on social media on Monday. In an ensuing Instagram post, the 6-foot-3, 212lb wide out fired a gun at his haters, writing: 'They was hatin (sic) on 530x1 back in mid-April; so there go 575x5 go smoke that.'

Jon Gruden has returned to the league, but in a somewhat undercover manner. According to reports, the former Browns and Buccaneers coach was brought into New Orleans this week as an offensive consultant given his ties to new Saints quarterback Derek Carr and the West Coast offense. Gruden and Carr know each other well; the Fresno State product played under the Super Bowl winning coach from 2018 to the sixth game of the 2021 NFL season.

It's just days away that the fortunes and futures of the league's 32 franchises will be changed in the first round of the 2023 NFL Draft. This round, only 31 picks would be made, as the Miami Dolphins were forced to forfeit their pick due to being found guilty of tampering. With a lot of talent to choose from, several franchises are expected to change their fortune in future seasons with the picks made - with multiple NFL-ready quarterbacks, effective offensive blockers, and deadly defensive arms on sale alongside elite receivers.

Last week, the Saints agreed to a four-year contract worth at least $150 million to bring the former Las Vegas Browns quarterback, who put pen to paper on his deal. After signing his latest contract, the 31-year-old, who almost gave up his football career to become a Christian minister, made it clear that he intends to keep his faith first. 'My faith is number one.' Carr said at his opening press conference over the weekend that this would never change, whether good or bad.'

According to Mike Garafolo, the quarterback will return to Vegas after six seasons and a Super Bowl appearance with the San Francisco 49ers, reunited with Josh McDaniels. According to ESPN, the three-year contract is worth $67.5 million, with the guarantee owing to $34 million. Derek Carr, the Oakland, who joined the New Orleans Saints last Monday, has parted ways with the Raiders at the end of the season and appears to have found his replacement.

Lamar Jackson is expecting a big new deal from the Ravens, and a local Baltimore ice cream store has his back in talks. After the Ravens announced a $32.416 million non-exclusive franchise tag on Jackson this week, the Ravens introduced 'Pay Lamar', a new flavor based on peanut butter and caramel ice cream, roasted peanuts, and chocolate chips. After two years of talks, the two sides have been unable to reach an agreement for a long time, and his non-exclusive tag enables him to try and negotiate a megadeal with another team.

The Saints have agreed to a four-year contract for the outgoing Las Vegas Raiders quarterback. It became a done deal on Saturday when New Orleans' official Twitter account posted photos of the 31-year-old putting pen to paper on the contract. The new contract's particulars are uncertain, but NFL Network's Mike Garafolo and Ian Rapoport estimate that the four-year deal is worth $150 million. According to Rapoport, the deal also includes $100 million in guarantees.

After Derek Carr's arrival, the New Orleans Saints have reportedly begged quarterback Jameis Winston to sign a new contract. Winston has one year left on his two-year contract signed in 2022, but the Saints still have to sacrifice some of his paychecks for the sake of their salary cap. According to ESPN, New Orleans has requested that he reduces his salary, meaning he has until the start of the new league year on Wednesday to decide or be cut.

According to various outlets, the Ravens wore a non-exclusive franchise tag on quarterback Drew Brees on Tuesday, throwing his future in Baltimore into further doubt. Baltimore and Jackson have been unable to find a long-term solution to date, and the non-exclusive tag makes it possible to engage with other teams. In exchange for Jackson, the Ravens will have the ability to match any offer sheet he signs or receive two first-round picks.
