Saints are listing QB Derek Carr as questionable for Sunday’s game vs Carolina due to his concussion, ribs and right shoulder.

We've seen Carr play through injuries this year, and it hasn't been great. Back in Weeks 3-4 he had a nearly-impossible 4.18 yards per attempt on 55 passes, accumulating 11.3 combined fantasy points. Winston could make for an interesting desperation streamer, but Carr is an absolute stay-away if he starts.

Saints quarterback Derek Carr is back in the concussion protocol.

Carr suffered his second concussion in the last four weeks during Sunday’s 33-28 loss to the Lions in Detroit and he has also dealt with multiple right shoulder issues, but he’s yet to miss a start in his first season in New Orleans.

HC Dennis Allen said that “it’s concerning” any time a player has a concussion in response to a question about multiple head injuries in a short period of time, the story said. The story also bought up the concussion and other injuries being a reason to sit Carr down. The Saints play the Panthers and Giants over the next two weeks as they look to stay in the playoff hunt. If Carr can't go, or the team feels he needs a rest, Winston would be in line to start.

Saints QB Derek Carr left Sunday's game against the Lions with a potential concussion and a shoulder injury.

It sounds like a similar injury to what Carr suffered in Week 10 but was able to avoid missing time thanks to the bye week the following week. That likely won't be the case here. Jameis Winston is in the game and could see more playing time while Carr likely will miss time. Tayson Hill has also been getting more involved as the Saints' Swiss Army knife.

Saints coach Dennis Allen told reporters that QB Derek Carr was a full participant in practice, a sign he's progressing through the NFL's concussion protocol.

Winston is certainly far more fun to watch, but Carr is likely better for more of the Saints' fantasy pieces (i.e. Alvin Kamara). If Carr doesn't get cleared, Winston makes for a great QB streamer.

Derek Carr has a concussion and right shoulder injury

Carr may have reaggravated an older shoulder injury, and has an AC joint sprain which is similar to an injury from earlier this season. The good new is neither injury is expected to keep Carr out of action, according to Rapoport. The Saints have a bye in Week 11, which comes at a good time for Carr. Rapoport said Carr should be OK to play in Week 12.

Saints quarterback Derek Carr (shoulder, concussion) is hopeful he can return after the team's Week 11 bye.

Certainly good news for Carr who took a hard shot in the third quarter. He was able to walk to the medical tent before being carted to the locker room. Jameis Winston entered the game in place of Carr. The Saints (5-5) are off next week before a Week 12 trip to Atlanta to face the Falcons.

Saints quarterback Derek Carr was ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Vikings with a shoulder injury and is being evaluated for a possible concussion.

Carr took a hard hit in the third quarter. He was able to walk under his own power to the medical tent on the sideline. He was later carted to the locker room. Jameis Winston has replaced Carr in the game.

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara made his season debut Sunday after serving a three-game suspension for his role in a 2022 fight in Las Vegas, and the offense leaned heavily on him in the 26-9 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Quarterback Derek Carr, who has been recovering from a shoulder injury, said on Sunday that he wished he could've utilized Kamara more.

Kamara caught 13 balls for 33 yards. Unfortunately, the 33 yards isn't a typo, and, according to the story, was the first time that a player had 13 or more catches and so few yards. The previous record was set by Buccaneers running back James Wilder, a name from Tecmo Bowl days, who had 13 receptions for 71 yards in 1985. The good news for Kamara owners is it looks like he could see a lot of work out of the backfield, especially with Williams on IR.

It will continue to be Jameis Winston's show in New Orleans until Derek Carr is able to return. As it stands, Carr is considered week-to-week with a sprained AC joint suffered during the Saints' Week 3 loss to the Packers. Carr pledged on Wednesday he wouldn't return until he's capable of performing at his expected level.

Carr can safely be dropped in all formats.

This was the assumed news once we found out the injury wasn't as bad as it could have been. Carr continues to feel better according to other reports. While Carr hasn't been ruled out for Week 4, odds wouldn't seem to favor him to be able to go against the Bucs. It's an early matchup in Week 4, so Carr owners will know in advance if they need to find another option at QB.
