Over his nine-year career, Carr completed 64.6% of his passes for 217 touchdowns and 99 interceptions. He added six rushing touchdowns.<\/p>\n
Carr is 0-1 in his lone playoff start. The Raiders qualified for the playoffs twice during Carr’s tenure, but he was injured late in 2016 and didn’t start in the AFC wild card that year. Two seasons ago, the Raiders finished the season with a 10-7 record but lost to the Cincinnati Bengals in the 2021 AFC wild card.<\/p>\n
Carr has a close relationship with Saints head coach Dennis Allen. When Allen was the head coach of the then-Oakland Raiders, he heavily lobbied the Raiders to draft Carr. They selected him with a second-round pick as the #36 overall player in the 2014 NFL Draft. Allen also made the decision to start Carr as a rookie.<\/p>\n
Winston is still under contract with the Saints, but the team is expected to release him to save salary cap space.<\/p>\n
The New York Jets had several good meetings with Carr in recent weeks. Over the weekend, Carr’s agent told the press he was leaning toward signing with the Jets. However, Carr signed with the Saints on Monday.<\/p>\n

The Jets are pursuing future Hall of Fame quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who has yet to decide on his prickly relationship with Green Bay. Rodgers returned to civilization last week after attending a darkness retreat when the season ended. He indicated he’ll decide soon whether he will remain with the Packers, retire, or ask for a trade.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The Packers hinted that they won’t trade Rodgers to an NFC team, which is why AFC teams like the Jets, Raiders, and Tennessee Titans became leading contenders to add Rodgers in a trade.<\/p>\n
With Carr out of the running, the Jets will ramp up their pursuit of Rodgers. They already made a major coaching change to entice Rodgers to join Gang Green. The Jets hired his former offensive coordinator, Nathaniel Hackett, in hopes of luring him to the team.<\/p>\n
If, by chance, Rodgers stays in Green Bay or retires, then the Jets will scramble and try to sign Garoppolo. Multiple teams are interested in Garoppolo, including the Raiders, Bucs, Panthers, and Washington Commanders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
