New Orleans Saints reportedly targeting Derek Carr in trade or NFL free agency
By Jason Burgos | Sportsnaut
The New Orleans Saints are reportedly a team that is in hot pursuit of Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr. Be it in a trade or possibly if he soon hits the NFL free-agent market.
After eight seasons and 16 games, the Raiders decided in December that the Derek Carr era in their organization had officially come to an end. The decision was made after the team underperformed on offense in 2022-2023, after being a key element in their 10-win showing the previous season.
Despite the offensive reputation of new head coach Josh McDaniels, his style ended up not being a good fit for the skillset of the four-time Pro Bowl QB. While the 31-year-old is no longer welcome in Las Vegas, there are still expected to be quite a few suitors for Carr’s services around the NFL.
