Derek Carr Giving Juwan Johnson Drew Brees Vibes
2 years agoNew Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson had some high praise for new quarterback Derek Carr, saying that "he's giving me a lot of Drew (Brees)." "It honestly felt like we've been working with Derek for quite a while now and so OTAs was really good, really smooth," Johnson said. "He's giving me more of a feel because he's an older guy. Going into the huddle, commanding the huddle. The guys gravitating to him." Johnson had 42 catches for 508 yards and seven touchdowns in 2022 and has proven to be a dependable option for any QB, but he might be sharing targets with Foster Moreau, who worked with Carr in Las Vegas. It's high praise for Carr, but fantasy managers shouldn't get too excited just yet after he struggled to be efficient with one of the best receivers at his disposal last year in Davante Adams.
