Derek Carr retiring never really felt like the final verdict. There was an oddly timed injury and immediate questions around his justification around leaving. From the moment Carr made the announcement, New Orleans Saint fans knew something was fishy. A year later, Saints fans should feel vindicated. Carr has been hinting at the idea of playing football again for a while. Now, it feels like he’s pushing for a team to pursue him.
It seems like Carr may actually get his wish. It seemed unlikely once he gave his demands. He wanted to start, and Carr wanted to play for a true contender.
