The Las Vegas Raiders made a mistake with Derek Carr
Arguably, the biggest mistake on the roster due to the Raiders putting their trust in McDaniels was the decision to move on from Derek Carr. Carr signed with the New Orleans Saints last season following his release from the Raiders. The Saints are set to play the Raiders in the upcoming season.
Carr joked about punching Maxx Crosby
A fan asked Carr if he was looking forward to playing the Raiders in the 2024 season. According to a video posted by Vic Tafur, Carr said he was.
Hopefully, I’m going to try to start a fight with him, punch him, and then have the ref only see him throw his punch back. That’s my goal,” Carr said in jest.
Carr could get knocked around by Crosby, though
Carr won’t be punching his 256-pound former teammates this fall. However, if his offensive line struggles, Carr could get knocked around by Crosby. The Saints and Raiders matchup should have extra intrigue this season since Carr will face his former team.Hopefully, I’m going to try to start a fight with him, punch him, and then have the ref only see him throw his punch back. That’s my goal,” Carr said in jest.
