Saints beat writer Nick Underhill reports Derek Carr left the stadium with his non-throwing hand in a cast following the Saints’ 14-11, Week 14 win over the Giants.
Carr had completed 20-of-31 passes for 219 yards, a touchdown, and an interception before he foolishly vaulted into his own teammate, Kevin Austin, on a fourth quarter scramble. He landed as hard as possible, injuring his hand and necessitating a concussion evaluation. Carr wasn’t doing much of anything before the pointless stunt, though his supporting cast is as admittedly as undermanned as possible at the moment. It certainly seems like we are going to see Jake Haener in Week 15 against the Commanders, but nothing is ever that simple for Carr. Either way, the situation has lost all fantasy relevance. Stay tuned.
