Some new surprising details have emerged on the relationship between Derek Carr and New Orleans Saints head coach Kellen Moore following the quarterback’s stunning retirement. On Saturday morning, Derek Carr announced that he was retiring from football because of his nagging shoulder injury.

After Derek Carr's sudden retirement, the New Orleans Saints are left with three quarterbacks on their active roster. And according to new head coach Kellen Moore, they will each get a chance to compete for the starting role in Carr's absence.

After two seasons of less than ideal results, the Derek Carr tenure with the New Orleans Saints came to an unceremonious end. A fractured hand and concussion ruled him out midway through the 2024 season.
