Drew Brees Supports Move To Bring Derek Carr To Saints (1 Viewer)

Both the Las Vegas Raiders and New Orleans Saints head into the 2023 season with new quarterbacks under center.

After releasing Carr in the offseason, the Raiders went out and signed Jimmy Garoppolo to a three-year deal. On the flip side, Carr was able to land a lucrative four-year, $150 million deal with the Saints.

It was a sad end to Carr’s tenure with Las Vegas, but he lands in a great situation with New Orleans. Despite not having played a game yet for the Saints, Carr has already drawn support from legends like Drew Brees via Adam Hill of Las Vegas Review-Journal:

“I think it’s a great move for him and the organization,” Drew Brees said of the recent signing of former Raiders star Derek Carr. “I’ve always had a lot of respect for him and always felt he was a fairly underrated player that probably didn’t get the respect he deserved.”
