The New Orleans Saints made a big splash in free agency when they signed longtime Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr, and Drew Brees is a fan of the move. He expects Carr to hit the ground running and quickly establish a rapport with his new coaches, including his play caller. He spoke about the move with The Advocate’s Luke Johnson at the Zurich Classic this week.
“I think he’ll mesh well with Pete Carmichael,” Brees began. “I think he’s got some weapons around him. I’m excited that Michael Thomas will be back and hopefully healthy — he deserves that. I think they’re going to be well-positioned to make a run at it.”
