AFCWEST 1,238 Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 DEREK CARRQB, LAS VEGAS RAIDERS Raiders coach Josh McDaniels announced Derek Carr has been benched for the final two games of the season. Coming off the heels of a back-breaking loss to the Steelers, McDaniels and company appear desperate for a spark as their season spirals the drain. The Raiders aren't technically out of the playoff hunt yet, but Carr's second-half meltdown in Week 16 put them at death's door. Even with a pair of wins, which will now have to come with Jarrett Stidham under center, the Raiders are extremely unlikely to make the playoffs. With Las Vegas looking to the 2023 season, the move has financial underpinnings. If Carr suffers an injury that carries into the start of the next league year, his $33 million base salary becomes fully guaranteed. Potentially looking to cut or trade him after this year, GM Dave Ziegler isn't taking any chances with Carr's health and contract by extension. It looks like Carr has played his last game in a silver and black uniform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFCWEST 1,238 Posted December 28, 2022 Author Share Posted December 28, 2022 Instead of Carr on Sunday, the San Francisco 49ers will face Jarrett Stidham under center as the Raiders evaluate the young talent they have on hand before making bigger decisions in the postseason. Stidham will also likely suit up to face K.C. in Week 18. On Wednesday, the Raiders announced that two valuable defensive veterans would head to injured reserve to officially end their season. Pass rusher Chandler Jones was the big-ticket edge signed to make defenses respect someone other than Maxx Crosby. In addition, Denzel Perryman has been a steady tackler in the heart of the defense and led the team last year with 154 tackles in a Pro Bowl season. Jones left Sunday’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers in the third quarter with an elbow injury. For Perryman, it’s a shoulder injury that’s lingered.

Other than being a Raider I have nothing against the guy he seemed like an overall good guy. I hope he finds greener pastures, Miami maybe needing a Qb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boone 304 Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Devante Adams has got to be pissed. He took less $$ to play with his guy...and now Carr is getting shipped out (likely via cut). Does DA make a stink and get traded, too? Get your popcorn ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to see Brady come to the west and we can destroy him twice a year. He is done imo but might drag it out 2 years. azchief21 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhitter 1,424 Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Well Carr is on record as saying he won't play for any team but the Raiders so...retirement? As far as his replacement goes...if the Raiders lose the next two games (likely) then they will be picking in the top ten I think.They could draft their QBOTF which does not bode well given their recent draft history.

I recall an interview where Adams said he took less to play with the Raiders because he wanted to be with Carr. Regardless of him setting the new high bar, he was claiming that it could have been higher if he had agreed to terms with the Packers.
