Derek Carr shocked the NFL world on Saturday by announcing his retirement from the league amid suffering a shoulder injury that would have required surgery this offseason.
The whole situation of his shoulder surgery has been an interesting one as it was first seen as "trade bait" for Carr revealing he had the injury this spring before the NFL draft. Then, the quarterback confirmed the injury during a sermon he gave at his church a few weeks ago. He shared then that he has been in constant communication with the New Orleans Saints throughout the whole process.
