Garafolo continued: "So the Saints are gonna have to make a decision on what they want to do with Derek Carr, who does have a no-trade clause I might mention as well. The Saints (are) massively over the salary cap, what else is new, then they start to renegotiate contracts. I do know that quarterbacks who have $40 million basically in guarantees aren't real quick to give that up. So if the Saints come to Carr and ask him to do that, I think he would resist, and then potentially could be gone."

That's news breaking that we have to make a decision on Carr. Wow. News worthy there

 

[CowtownSaint]

The decision is simple Rattler deserves the start next year to see if he can develop with starters at the pro level. If bad we look for new qb in 2026

Carr has a tendency of going through coordinators and coaches. Lets see what KM can do. If he decides to keep carr then so be it. Cant blame him for not wanting to keep another coaches qb that got him fired twice.

What's Carr's record as a starter as a Saint?

I think someone posted it and its one of the worst in NFL history whether that be with bad defenses on the Raiders idk but it isn't good.

 

[SubmarineMike]

I think Carr is our best bet for 2025, but I also think we have zero shot at fielding a competitive team for 2025, no matter who our coach is.

Because of this, I would rather rip the bandaid off now and hopefully regain competitiveness in 2026.

 

[SuperSaint]

If they moved on from Carr this year, it would destroy an already bad cap situation.

Ain't gonna happen, he's here at least one more year.

 

[Broad St. Saint]

What would the Saints have to trade to get another team to pick up Carr's contract? And is there any way to deal with the cap ramifications re: his already-paid money (IDK if I'm right about this, but wouldn't it accelerate the remainder of his $28.5 signing bonus into the Saints' 2025 cap number)?

Derek Carr was conspicuously absent throughout New Orleans' Super Bowl week

Derek Carr was absent in Super Bowl week. Spencer Rattler and Jake Haener promoted New Orleans just like Drew Brees and Jameis Winston, but QB1 wasn’t to be found:

Siglar is the biggest Carr hater writer covering the Saints. And the biggest hack. He's written 1 good article in over a yr

His record as a starter for the Saints is 14-13
