Carr wanted to be traded prior to restructure per NOF and CBSsports

Disgruntled was a word I used and might end up missing the mark, depending on whatever is really going on.

I’ll say it again, I don’t question his professionalism but if it’s true he wanted out, that’s not reassuring heading into a new season. Sure, I’d expect him to keep putting in the work and saying the right things publicly, but pretty much nobody is going to feel great if they think they’ve been relegated to a temporary piece and this is just a breakup being dragged out over a full season. Everybody wants to feel valued. Carr has his pride, too.

It’s entirely possible a lot is being made of all of this and Carr and the team are on good terms. But…there aren’t currently strong reassurances that’s the case.

Look at it for what it actually is. The Saints team (players) is like a big family. So at the end of the year, when the head of the family gets fired. The family members start worrying about their position, because the stability was rocked. I say that to say, I bet Carr wasn’t the only one feeling uncertainty. I bet DD, TM, CJ were all feeling like they not make it to the new regime. It turns out, that they all made it. Pressure off. I expect to see DC4s next interview indiscernible from his previous ones. Keeping the core together is the best thing for the team, otherwise, you’re staring at 0-17. I don’t think anyone survives 0-17. Fans should watch out for what they are wishing for, imo.
