Who Should I Start? Derek Carr or Devin Leary

Tuesday, March 11, 7:45 PM

Per Kevin Patra of NFL.com, New Orleans Saints head coach Kellen Moore is excited to team up with quarterback Derek Carr for the 2025 season. "I think we've been consistent through this whole process," Moore said. "We feel really good about Derek, and we're excited to team up with him...We want him here, and it'll be a good situation." The Saints' new head coach also noted he believes that the veteran can improve from last year's injury-plagued season. Carr and New Orleans started 2024 on fire, scoring 44+ points in each of their first two contests. However, it was all downhill from there, as the team imploded and the 33-year-old dealt with abdomen and hand injuries that forced him to miss seven games. If the Fresno State alum can stay healthy, he'll undoubtedly be more productive this upcoming season. The vote of confidence from his head coach is nice, but he projects as nothing more than a middling QB2 and potential streaming option regarding fantasy.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Devin Leary was the only one on the team to find the end zone in the 16-13 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Friday. The rookie out of Kentucky completed six of his 10 passes for 37 yards and scored on a one-yard QB keeper in the fourth quarter which tied the game at 13. On the unofficial depth chart, Leary is listed as the third-string QB behind Josh Johnson, but he looked better than the tenth-year veteran. Leary will likely get some more work in the next couple of preseason games while fellow rookie Emory Jones could get a drive or two as well.
