The Saints will need to maneuver around the salary cap to get in compliance, and the clock is ticking with two weeks to go until the new league year on Feb. 12. Restructures are expected, and Carr's contract is one that could certainly help free up some space.

Carr has $40 million in guarantees that will hit by the third day of the new league year, with a $30 million base salary and $10 million roster bonus.

INDIANAPOLIS — New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis sees 11-year veteran quarterback Derek Carr as “a guy we can win with, and we’re excited about it.”

Loomis made those comments on Wednesday to a small group of New Orleans-based reporters who traveled to Indianapolis for the NFL scouting combine.

He is 14-13 as a starter in two seasons with the Saints, having gone 5-5 during an injury-riddled 2024 campaign. The Saints went 5-12 last season, their...
