Derek Carr's leadership is infectious in the New Orleans Saints camp after his arrival following eight years with the Las Vegas Raiders.
The Raiders released the 32-year-old in February after the quarterback declined to waive a no-trade clause in his contract. He then landed at the Saints on a four-year deal worth $150 million contract, reuniting with former Raiders head coach Dennis Allen.
Carr's arrival has the Saints hoping for a postseason appearance in the 2023 campaign, having missed out last time after finishing third in the NFC South behind the Carolina Panthers and the Tampa Bay Buccanneers. The four-time Pro Bowler brings a lot of attributes with him to The Big Easy but his leadership ranks among the highest, according to both head coach Allen and veteran Saints safety Tyrann Mathieu.
