Report: Saints QB Derek Carr 'very unlikely' to return this season

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr is considered very unlikely to return this season because of multiple fractures in his left hand, NFL Network reported on Tuesday.
According to a Reuters report, New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr is "very unlikely" to return this season due to a series of injuries, including a concussion, rib injuries, and a shoulder issue. This news comes after Carr was injured during a game against the Detroit Lions, where he was sacked three times, leading to his latest concussion. Despite his absence, the Saints managed to secure a 33-28 victory. The team has now turned to backup quarterback Jameis Winston, who has experience filling in for Carr. The Saints are currently in contention for a playoff spot with a 7-7 record, and the decision on Carr's participation will be crucial as they face upcoming games against the Los Angeles Rams and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
