Derek Carr Addresses Sideline Outbursts: ‘I Have Got to Kind of Chill Out’

Saints quarterback Derek Carr got heated during Thursday night’s frustrating home loss to the Jaguars, barking at coaches and teammates alike in sideline outbursts during the 31-24 defeat.

Afterward, Carr explained that he wasn’t proud of the incidents and intends to project a steadier demeanor moving forward.

“I have been showing my emotions a little too much on my sleeve,” Carr told reporters. “I have got to kind of chill out, and that’s me holding myself accountable because that’s not going to help anything. Just trying to be a calming influence in these moments, especially during moments of heightened frustration. I can be that presence to calm everybody down.”
