ANALYSIS: Derek Carr (shoulder) had been playing solid football for the New Orleans Saints heading into Week 3. Unfortunately, the veteran quarterback suffered a shoulder injury that sent him to the hospital for additional testing after getting an X-ray in the stadium. Carr is considered week-to-week and unlikely to play in Sunday's game against Tampa Bay.
Saints’ HC Dennis Allen said Derek Carr will be week to week due to his sprained AC joint and he is not ready to rule him out for Sunday’s game vs Tampa. pic.twitter.com/DroHGl8X9n

Jameis Winston is set to take over at quarterback with the Saints while Carr is sidelined. Winston was an efficient 10 of 16 passing for 101 yards after Carr’s injury and led the Saints into field goal range to win the game before the kicker missed his attempt.
Rostering Jameis Winston has always been a rollercoaster, but he isn’t afraid to chuck the ball and has ample weapons at his disposal like Chris Olave, Michael Thomas, and Rashid Shaheed. If Carr is going to miss a significant amount of time, Jameis will firmly be in the QB2 range for the foreseeable future.
