Derek Carr feared to have suffered broken left hand

Saints QB Derek Carr is feared to have suffered a broken left (non-throwing) hand during Sunday’s game against the Giants.

Fantasy Impact:

Carr was attempting to run and dive for a first down during the fourth quarter when he suffered the injury. Interim head coach Darren Rizzi also said Carr was being evaluated for a concussion but did not confirm whether Carr was in the concussion protocol. Jake Haener took over and finished the game. The Saints are 5-8 but are only two games behind the 7-6 Buccaneers in the NFC South. We should know more about the injury and a potential timeline Monday.

Saints expect QB Derek Carr to start in Week 9, despite Wednesday "pitch count"

Derek Carr was on a "little bit" of a pitch count for Wednesday's practice, but is still expected to start Sunday, Dennis Allen said.

Fantasy Impact:

Good news for the Saints as they try to claw their way back into playoff talks. This would be great for Chris Olave, who has a very cushy matchup against the Panthers secondary this week.

Saints expect QB Derek Carr (oblique) to practice Wednesday

Head coach Dennis Allen said in his Monday press conference that he’s optimistic about Derek Carr’s potential return this weekend.

“Derek Carr had a throwing session again today, looked good in the throwing session,” Allen said. “I would expect him to be back out at practice again on Wednesday. And then we’ll go from there and see what his availability is this week. But I’m optimistic about it.”

Fantasy Impact:

Carr has been out since suffering an oblique injury against the Chiefs in Week 5. Rattler started the last three games for New Orleans, though he was benched in the second half of Sunday’s loss to the Chargers for Haener. The Saints looked dominant over their first two games but have since dropped six-straight. In five games this year, Carr has completed 70.3 percent of his throws for 989 yards with eight touchdowns and four interceptions, the story said.

Saints will stick with QB Spencer Rattler if Derek Carr out

Dennis Allen said Derek Carr had a throwing session today, will have another tomorrow and they'll see where he's at. Allen said the plan is to stick with Spencer Rattler at QB if Carr doesn't play.

Fantasy Impact:

The post added that Allen said he feels like Rattler has played well when he has protection. Chris Olave is in protocol but the hope is he can clear before Week 8's game at the Chargers. It's not a great matchup for Rattler, or even Carr if he's ready, and it will be an even tougher go if Olave isn't able to play.
