Saints quarterback Derek Carr is expected to miss multiple games with the oblique injury he suffered in Monday night's loss to the Chiefs, according to NFL Network's Mike Garofolo and Ian Rapoport. Saints News Network has heard similar information that Carr will miss time.

Carr suffered the injury late in the final quarter on a failed 4th Down play and was in pain afterwards. The initial belief was that it was that it was from a hit, but Carr said that it happened prior to that when he went to torque back for the pass and then got evaluated in the medical tent. Ultimately, it was determined that he could not continue because he 'couldn't do what he needed to do in the simplest form'. ...

Derek Carr expected to miss multiple weeks with oblique injury

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr is expected to miss multiple weeks with an oblique injury he suffered in a Monday Night Football loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, per Mike Garafolo.

The Saints are facing a critical matchup with their rival Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. New Orleans will then quickly turn around and face the Denver Broncos at home for Thursday Night Football, marking the team’s third game in 11 days. The short time between each outing makes Carr’s availability doubtful for the team’s next two matchups.

Second-year quarterback Jake Haener filled in for Carr when...

Spencer Rattler a ‘strong candidate’ to start in Carr’s absence, per report

The New Orleans Saints got some big injury news on Tuesday afternoon when they learned that Derek Carr, who exited Monday’s game against Kansas City early with an oblique injury, is expected to miss at least two weeks, meaning the Saints will have to turn to either Jake Harner - who replaced Carr when he left the game Monday - or rookie Spencer Rattle to take over as QB1.

A few minutes after Carr’s injury news was reported, Mike Garafolo reported that Rattler is a ‘strong candidate’ to takeover as the Saints starting QB in Carr’s absence. Rattler has served as the Saints emergency QB...

Could Saints follow Jets' example with an unprecedented move at head coach?

The New York Jets broke 25 years of precedent by firing head coach Robert Saleh midseason. Unsatisfied with his team’s 2-3 start and Saleh’s 20-36 record, team owner Woody Johnson chose to act boldly and go in a new direction just five games into the 2024 season. It remains to be seen how much input Aaron Rodgers had on the move given all of the Jets’ kowtowing to his demands over the last year, but this was big news in the NFL either way.

Could the New Orleans Saints make a similar bold move? Gayle Benson has only hired one coach after inheriting the team from her late husband Tom...

This is big. NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo and Ian Rapoport report that New Orleans Saints starting quarterback Derek Carr is expected to miss multiple games with an oblique injury he suffered late in Monday night’s loss against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Carr twisted awkwardly while winding up to throw, and that’s going to cost him. The Saints have to play two home games in the next nine days — first against the division-rival Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, Oct. 13, and then against their old coach Sean Payton and the Denver Broncos on Thursday, Oct. 17.

It’s too soon to say whether injured...

Report: Saints rookie QB 'is a strong candidate' to start in relief of Derek Carr

Now this is interesting. After reporting that New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr is expected to miss multiple games with an oblique injury, NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo and Ian Rapoport added that rookie passer Spencer Rattler “is a strong candidate to get the start” while Carr is on the mend.

That’s surprising given Jake Haener, not Rattler, has been the initial backup for Carr all season. Whether it’s mop-up duty or relief for an injury, it’s been Haener going into games whenever Carr has stepped out. But this might suggest offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak would rather go with...

Opinion: Raiders' trade demands are too steep for Saints to pay

We all know that one person in fantasy football who sends you trades that are obviously slanted. That’s the Las Vegas Raiders with Davante Adams. And it should be enough to push the New Orleans Saints into looking elsewhere for help.

It’s been widely reported the Raiders want a second-round draft pick at least, and they won’t take on any of Adams’ remaining salary. If the Raiders want to play hardball with what they’ll accept, the Saints should move on.

For New Orleans, neither parting ways with a second rounder nor taking on Adams’ big salary hit sounds desirable. It isn’t even...
