New Orleans Saints can be looking at signal callers with the ninth general selection because Derek Carr has an injury that can keep it out this year.

Carr joined the Saints before the 2024 season after spending his first nine seasons with the Raiders in Oakland and Las Vegas.
It has not been exactly a great mandate. In 27 games, Carr has completed 68.2% of its passes for 6,023 yards, 40 touchdowns and 13 interceptions. Carr failed seven games during the 2024 season due to AA Boil shock and a fracture of the left hand.
