Saints Say No Teams Have Reached Out About a Derek Carr Trade

The 11-year veteran has said he would unretire only for a Super Bowl-ready roster.

Overview

  • NBC Sports reports New Orleans has received no formal inquiries about acquiring Derek Carr's rights.
  • Carr remains on the Saints' reserve-retired list, so any team interested would need to arrange a trade with New Orleans.
  • Carr has stated he would consider returning only if fully healthy and joining a legitimate title contender.
  • He retired after a labral tear and rotator-cuff damage, chose rehabilitation over surgery, and is reportedly throwing without limitations.
  • NBC Sports outlines potential avenues for a return, including a pre-deadline trade, a request for the Saints to release his rights, or waiting for a contender's injury with waivers after the trade window.
