Derek Carr Didn't Want to "Just Take the Saints Money"

Friday, June 6, 12:23 PM

Former New Orleans Saints and Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr (shoulder) made a surprising decision to hang up his cleats and retire from the NFL this offseason. "That part was tough because I didn't want to have surgery and just sit there and it sounds crazy but just take the Saints money," Carr said. He had two seasons left on the four-year, $150 million deal he signed with the Saints in 2023, although he gave up the $30 million salary he was set to earn in 2025. The four-time Pro Bowler was dealing with a right-shoulder injury that was going to require surgery and leave his availability uncertain for the start of the regular season this fall. Carr said the Saints wanted him to keep playing, but he couldn't commit to another season. With Carr now gone, the Saints will have a QB competition this summer, primarily between rookie second-rounder Tyler Shough and Spencer Rattler.

Daniel Jones Builds on Impressive Campaign with Three Touchdowns Against Titans

Monday, October 27, 12:13 AM

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones completed 21 of his 29 pass attempts for 272 yards, three touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Sunday's Week 8 win over the Tennessee Titans. He also took three sacks along the way. Jones' career resurgence in Indianapolis continues, as he now has 17 total touchdowns and just three turnovers in 2025. The 28-year-old ranks as the overall QB6 in fantasy football, showcasing an impressive blend of passing talent and mobility. He should remain a must-start fantasy quarterback heading into next week's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, who just surrendered 360 yards and three touchdowns to Jordan Love.
