Derek Carr Going For MRI On Tuesday
2 months agoNew Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr (oblique) will go for an MRI exam on Tuesday after being forced to leave the Monday night loss to the Kansas City Chiefs will just more than six minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. Carr answered "not good" when asked how he was feeling after the game. He was deemed questionable to return to the game but never came back while backup Jake Haener closed it out. Before leaving, Carr went 18-for-28 for 165 yards, two touchdowns and an interception. He was sacked once but was hit eight times and pressured on over half of his dropbacks. It doesn't sound good for the 33-year-old's chances of playing in Week 6 against the division-rival Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but we'll know more after we get his MRI results. A move from Carr to Haener would mean that fantasy managers would need to downgrade all of New Orleans' offensive weapons for as long as he's out.
